Hi all,

I've been using revelation since perhaps Ubuntu Maverick.  I'm now on Linux Mint Olivia (Ubuntu Raring Ringtail equivalent) and with it I get Revelation 0.4.13 (from ubuntu, not from Mint ).

Previously I had revelation entries in a specific order so that entries I used most often were at the top and less commonly used entries were further down.

In 0.4.13 on Mint (or Ringtail) the entries are now in alphabetical order.  I don't see an option to disable the auto-sort and I can't move items around.  I'd be happy if it just allowed me to move things around so I could get things in a useful order again.  Is there a way to do that short of installing an older version of revelation?  Is that fixed in 0.4.14?  I'd  install a PPA or even build from source if 0.4.14 fixes this. 

Does your 0.4.13 perhaps not auto-sort and possibly this is an Ubuntu "enhancement"?

Many thanks for any assistance.

Gerald

Hi

Can't your simply create a few folders, named so your favourites appear at the top of the list and the less popular lower down ?  And Passwords in those, you can do a search for.

Yes, could do that.  I already had a bunch of folders (and folders within folders) for some closely related things.  But I have a huge number of random website passwords and I just had them all out in the root.

I'd still like to be able to order the entries in any way I like though.  I just counted the number of entries in the root, I have 149.  This is partly because this is the password safe for myself, my wife, and my children (very young children, just their gmail and facebook passwords :-).  but I probably have more than 200 passwords altogether since I have a whole bunch of other passwords in folders.

I suppose I could have an ____important passwords folder, put the important stuff there, and then rename all my folders to _[folder_name].  that'll help.

So I can work around the issue.  Would still much prefer being able to reorder entries any which way though.  More intuitive.

Thanks for your suggestion.  

Gerald

I agree with the request.

Me too would like to have the manual ordering back.

Thanks
Andrea
