Hi there,

Is there a possibility to display the upload date besides the modified date in the Webinterface of the File Plugin? This would be great for sorting in shared folders.

Thanks in advance.  
Matti

Hi Devs,

I concur with this request (and for the app too). I get very often new pictures which are older than the ones already stored in the folder and so i never know which ones are the new ones.

Since this topic is old I like to refresh it - there were a lot of changes since first post.

Is there a possibility to personally adapt something like that. It is really annoying missing new pics.

Thank you,  
Florom

Hi Devs,

A short answer would be really nice.  
Probably there is a possibility and it might be helpful to other users searching for an answer.

Thanks.

Hi Devs ,

I am wondering why this topic is still ignored.

Are there any obvious reasons I unfortunatly do not get at all?

Thanks.

Unfortunately there has not been much progress since then.

If you are interested in this feature **give it a 👍 there** and **tell others.**  
Thanks.

Hi florom,

do you see any progress?

when i understand correctly skjnldsv has somehow channeled the " [Display Upload Date] Request"

to

# [Sort By - new filters and new columns](https://github.com/nextcloud/server/issues/18426#top)#18426

But what does all these “batches” mean?

1. to develop  
client: 💻 desktop  
client: 🤖🍏 mobile enhancement  
feature: files overview

He mentioned “It’s kind of already implemented for 28”

Does it mean it will be part of the “Sort By - new filters and new columns”-Request 18426 and it will come in release 28?

I am lost.
