Sorting entries alphabetically in the control panel by default.

Question

I was wondering if there was a quick way to sort entries in the control panel automatically by their titles without modifying core files. Did I miss anything in the documentation and settings?

Not by any EE settings, however you could do this by injecting some javascript to click the Title column on page load. Install the CP CSS & JS add-on and add the snippet below:

// Check to see if element exists first, then click
if ($('th[data-table_column="title"]').length > 0) { 
    $('th[data-table_column="title"]').click();
}
