Ability to change the Opportunities Display Order
Client stated that the order that the opportunities are displayed on the All Opportunities page is confusing to some of the OA's and would like to be able to put them in alphabetical order regardless of their end date. She also feels this will help applicants find particular opportunities if they don't really know what they are looking for.

I'd also like to add that this feature would be VERY helpful with dates as the deadline doesn't seem to be the default in our system in all cases (attachment includes my view as an 'applicant' on 11/22/23 and as you can see, some deadlines in March 2024 are listed before a deadline on 11/30/23). I believe adding a deadline & alphabetical order option by the "Show Filters" would help many students looking to prioritize their time.
Clients ask for this ALL the time.

I would like to order opportunities first by end date, then by value, then alphabetically by a key word, not by the first letter of the opportunity.
James Madison University would also like the feature.
Specifically, they asked:
For both ‘Recommended Opportunities’ and ‘All Opportunities’ listings, can an option be added to sort by both ‘Award Amount’ and ‘Due Date’? This will allow students to manage their application process in ways that are more effective for them.
See additional use cases from lssu and wfacf in merged enhancement request, SMM-I-1179
Tyler Harrison at U of Arkansas - Monticello would also like to do this.
He would like to be able to feature institutional scholarships first, and then have other private foundation scholarships listed from highest award amount to lowest.
Sandra Jameson at Fort Lewis College would also like to change the order of the All Opportunities page. Specifically, they want it all to be in alpha order.
