Hello,
I want to create a management page on a union website. I cannot interfere with the ranking. If I make a new recording, it is placed at the top of the list. The list, which will continue, such as president, vice president, etc. How can I fix the sorting issue?
Thank you.

Works great, but wondering if there are a way to change the colors used? I can change the circle color around the images, but I can not change the lightblue grid.
