Sorting servers in your Serverlist and servers per page

[Grand-Trizmo]

add a feature to allow your servers to be sorted in the list by name,node,usage,status.
it would make for finding servers quite a bit easier on the list.

maybe also make it so you can choose how many servers to show on each page this would be really nice as currently we have 16 servers and there is just 1 lonely server on page 2.

For the second thing, set APP_PAGINATE_FRONT_SERVERS=20 in your .env file and then run php artisan config:cache and it should change the servers per page.

You could also add categrories to add server into. Then you could hide or show these categrories with a smiple click and wouldn't have 100 servers in a big list.

My team was surprised to find this wasn't already a feature.

I've seen a number of simple implementations use a separate "sorting_id" SQL column for this, then drag and drop to change the order on the client, with an async call to the backend to implement the change.

Could we do something like that?

Please, add server sorting to pterodactyl ... this is an absolute must-have basic feature.

Before I start - Kudos to you and your team - Ptero is awesome - time to stretch a bit further and be more awesome!

I just added this as a request got told its a duplicate - its a basic feature that's easy to implement and enhances usability 10 x

the fact that this request has been lying here since 2017 (4 years) is a travesty, both to ptero and users!!

being able to sort your views of servers is critical. Both Ptero and the networks it is supporting have grown exponentially so far, managing things has become a nightmare for a lot of users. When I first started using Ptero we had 6 servers - latest count 38 on one panel, 16 on a second panel.

We have got to the point where we are planning to implement a third ptero panel to separate out our test and dev servers, so that we have any idea of whats really going on. These features are no longer low priority nice to haves - they are becoming high priority decision making requirements.

Please guys - running servers (technically) is only 1/2 the job - the other 1/2 is giving us the tools to manage them.

I have like 2 hours a week available with work and other life things, I'm sorry but adding some filtering just doesn't make the cut when it comes down to the things I need to work on. You're welcome to submit a PR that adds this functionality into the codebase to help move this development along though.

Should be easy enough since it sounds like you know how it should work and what to do. :)

We need this feature too, would be a lot easier to manage 30+ servers in the future :)

Agree, We have 1100+ servers in our panel.

This is an old thread, are you guys thinking of working on this? Just curious ^^

Someone is welcome to PR it. There is no active development on this however.

Looking at the recent previews for 1.10.0, I'm hoping that server sorting gets added in that version.
