Custom Sorting: Give Your Content the Order it Deserves 🗂️
You can now take full control over how items are displayed to your attendees by choosing between alphabetical, most popular, or recent sorting options. Instead of being locked into a chronological view, you can align your content strategy with how participants actually browse your event.
Tailor the Navigation Experience
Finding a specific exhibitor or resource shouldn't feel like a scavenger hunt. By moving beyond "creation date," you can significantly reduce the friction in your event app:
- Alphabetical Sorting (A-Z): The gold standard for directories. Help your attendees find specific brands, speakers, or documents in seconds. No more scrolling through a random timeline to find "Zenith Corp."
Most Popular (Smart Scoring): Surface the "trending" content automatically. Our new scoring algorithm calculates engagement by combining clicks and bookmarks.
- Pro tip: We weight bookmarks more heavily (1 bookmark = 3 points, while 1 click = 1 point) to ensure the most meaningful saved content rises to the top. 📊
- Default (Most Recent): Keep this active if you want to highlight your latest uploads or news updates first.
How it Works in Swapcard Studio
Setting this up takes about three clicks. Once you define the sorting order in the Studio, the Event App updates instantly to reflect that exact sequence.
- Navigate to your Items view.
- Select your preferred sorting logic from the new dropdown menu.
- Sit back and watch your engagement metrics thank you. 🥂
Small Tweaks, Big Impact
- Logical UX: Attendees spend less time searching and more time consuming content.
- Exhibitor ROI: High-value exhibitors who get bookmarked more often will naturally climb to the top of "Most Popular" lists, rewarding engagement.
- Consistency: The order you see in the Studio is exactly what your attendees see on their screens.
