How can we implement sort order functionality in template in Sitecore SXA? For example : We have three item in Sitecore Content editor :

**Name**    **Sort Order**
Test 1          1
Test 2          2
Test 3          0

If we select sort order in this way then the content editor structure will be like this:

Test 3
Test 1
Test 2

We have same functionality in Appearance tab , need the same implementation when we would add it in template field..

I have modified my first answer following the comments of Michael West and Mark Cassidy in relation to the end of use of the Sitecore fast query but also because I think you don't need code for that. So I agree with Gatogordo. I think you can handle the order of child elements in the sub-element sorting section.

    I would highly encourage you to move away from the this approach as "fast" as possible. Fast Queries are no longer a feature recommended by Sitecore. sitecore.stackexchange.com/questions/16203/… intothecloud.blog/2018/10/21/… Commented Mar 18, 2022 at 13:24

    It's not about "being recommended". Fast queries are flat out no longer possible, from Sitecore 10 onwards.

  • Thank you guys for your comments I was unfortunately not aware of this information. good to know. To be honest, today I'm using version 9 update 2 and I'm still using the fast query. Now I know have what I need to do :)
