Listing recurring meetings alphabetically

My meetings are "no fixed time recurring meetings". I have a long list. I have named each recurring meeting according to the name of other person/s attending the meeting. On my phone and iPad the list is organised alphabetically. On my computer there appears to be no obvious system to the way the list is organised.  Having the recurring meetings listed alphabetically on my computer would be helpful. How do I do this? Rosalie

    Appreciate you doing this.  If enough of us chime in, maybe, just maybe, we can get action on something that shouldn't even be called a "feature".  It's just too basic of a function to be a feature!

    Thanks to all that have submitted this as a bug.  I heard back from a supervisor.  They just don't get it.  They continue to maintain that Zoom is behaving normally and reliable and consistent alphabetical display of recurring, no fixed time meetings, was ever possible.  We know they are wrong.  If you haven't already written and submitted as a bug, please join us in doing so....

     

    "By design, the sorting of meeting and recurring meetings are by scheduled start date and time. For those meeting with no fixed time, they appear at the bottom after all the meeting with date and time. The no fixed time meeting really do appear in a random order and this is how it was set for a while now. I understand that for some reason your recurring meetings with no fixed time are being sorted alphabetically before and now it is not. This is not a bug, it is just that it is really being arranged normally in a random order using a PC. I can see a user posted in the community blog that using a phone or iPad, the meetings are being sorted alphabetically. "

    @DLChen are you a Zoom technician?

    I am getting a bit of traction on this from Zoom technical escalation department.  However, they still dispute alphabetical ordering ever worked, nor can they get to work using the workaround discussed here - toggling between weekly and then back to recurring/no fixed time (but that only lasts for a little while).  Therefore, if you have not yet submitted a ticket about this PLEASE help us out by doing so now. Let them know Alphabetical ordering DID work by default before all these updates and we want it back without jumping through silly workarounds that only last a few hours before it reverts.   It only takes a few minutes to submit a ticket here, and if tier 1 support claims it never worked in the first place, ask that your ticket be escalated.......

    I submitted a ticket. Good luck to all of us. So tired of Zoom's utter lack of concern with customer service.

    Thanks to everyone that submitted a ticket.  I seem to be getting some traction and heard from a "Tier 2" support agent.  This happened after I specifically asked the ticket to be escalated so when you hear back and they say there is nothing that can be done or don't even acknowledge alphabetical sorting WAS a feature before recent updates. PLEASE request them to ESCALATE the issue as I did.  Thanks everyone!  Between all of us, we might get this resolved!!

    I also turned in a request. I discovered that the meetings are now organized by meeting number. Please add that to your posts! Hope that spurs zoom on to fix the bug!

    Hi all.  So far the alphabetical ordering is "holding" in the zoom client.  It does not work in the web version and needs to work in both.  All I can suggest is EVERYONE send in a ticket on this, be persistent and ask for escalation.  It needs to be understand we are not asking for a new feature, but rather for this inherent feature to be restored that disappeared after recent updates.
