how do I order brain teasers by difficulty?

I have the brain teasers and quizzes set up so that the ones I have already seen are hidden.

I used to be able to have all the remaining brain teasers sorted by difficulty in their category. So if I wanted to try, say, Cryptogram teasers, the easiest ones would be at the beginning.

Now I have to go into a category, press difficulty twice so the easiest ones are at the beginning. But when I do a teaser and then go back into that category to try another teaser, they are back in date order, not in order of difficulty.

How do I keep the teasers in each category ordered by difficulty like I used to?

Hey piers,
the teasers, by default, are arranged by publish date, from newest to oldest. I see no way to change the default. You'll just have to click "difficulty" twice each time.

Another suggestion, if you are viewing several in a short period of time, is to get the page arranged as you want it, then right-click the title of the teaser and open it in a new tab or new window, then when you are done, simply close that window or tab. This will maintain your method of organization as long as you do not navigate away from that original page. A note on this method though, the titles of the teasers you view will not disappear once you've viewed them unless you refresh the page, which may also reset your organization.


The difference between poison and medicine is usually a matter of dosage.

Thanks for this. I used to be able what I wanted to do only very old phone (more than 6 years old). Then I I couldn't do it any more on my new phone. I'm not sure why I could do it before on my ancient phone buut not now if the website hasn't changed.

But your idea is very good. I just tried it and when I press refresh, the order stays how I want. I saved the reordered category as an Internet bookmark (favourite). And I've found that it refreshed automatically without me pressing refresh.

So I just have to save each category as a separate Internet bookmark to get them to stay in the order I want. And it refreshes automatically so new ones go in without changing the order. Hurrah!

Thank you
