How to bring my latest book to the top of my list

[Dennis]

Is there a way for me to put my latest book at the top of the list of books in my author page? I tried sorting the list by original publication year, but the latest book is still at the bottom of the list.
https://www.goodreads.com/author/list...

How do I make my book appear at the top of the list so my readers can find it?

Original Publication date added to that work.

How did you get the sort on original publication year to stick? I thought the default was ratings/popularity. Was that changed recently?

[Dennis]

Thank you very much, Emy.

Lethe, I don't think the original publication year sticks, I'm afraid. I think it only sticks when you are the author and you set it to view according to publication date. But if I go to my Author Page, such as this one: https://www.goodreads.com/author/show...
I still don't see the latest book on the top of the list.

Emy, is there a way to fix this so members don't have to scroll down and click on "More books by Dennis Smith" to get to my latest book?

[Paula]

The first book to display on that page is is by the one most shelved/reviewed by users. There is no way to change this

[lethe]

Well, at least it sticks on the author list. Interesting, I didn't know that. I thought it was 'most shelved' until a user would change it for themselves.

Thanks, Emy.

Thanks, Paula.

Well, it sticks for a link that includes that sort information, like this one. It doesn't otherwise.

It does/did. I removed it from the link and still the original pub year sort showed up. Then I went to the author's page, clicked on 'More books' and they were sorted on original pub year. I checked the URL and the sort info wasn't there. It only changed when I manually changed to 'popularity'.

ETA I tried it again just now, using the link in comment #1, removing the sort info, going to the author's page, clicking on 'More books' (link: https://www.goodreads.com/author/list...) and the page shows up sorted on 'original publication year'.

It will remember your last sort for the length of a browser session.

Ah, OK. I guess I was surprised because I hadn't actively picked that sort from the drop-down menu.

Thank you all for your help. You can tell I'm not that tech savvy. But that's the technology age gap for you.
