just the exact information I needed. Thank you
Awesome, Just beginning mine
This is useful, thanks for sharing! It wasn't obvious when unpublished articles didn't appear in the series list!
Starting mine.
Super helpful steps! Thank you. :)
Hi nice articles about how to make articles.
Is there a way to sort articles inside a Series. It turns out that I need to add a few articles in the middle of the series but because they are newer they are automatically pushed to the bottom of the series list.
Any tip on how to arrange them?
Otherwise I will need to back up everything, copy and paste the articles again, but if in the future I need to add another article in the middle, the process become tiresome.
Thanks in advance.
I don't think there's currently a way to custom order a series unfortunately. Poking around on the forem repo (what powers DEV) the ordering seems to be hardcoded to the publish/cross-post date: github.com/forem/forem/blob/9e439f...
Thank you so much for the quick answer.
Yeah I was afraid that is hardcoded to the publishing date. I may need to remove the series table entirely and rely on 1 article acting as a table of content.
thank youu
You're welcome!
Great article, really helpful. Quick question though, will the name of the series be added to the front of the title of each article? or I'll have to add it if i want to?
You'll have to add it on your own if you want any sort of
My Series: Particular Article
style titles.How to use DEV? Well, find you can find your answer on DEV! Anyways, thanks so much for posting this post as I am doing at least five series by the end of the year.
Thank you first, but I am writing the following series
dev.to/one_past_last_jedi/jetpack-...
and it put my series in not my desired order ?!
can I change the order of the series? or there any solution?
Unfortunately custom ordering of series' posts doesn't seem to be supported currently. You could certainly go suggest this functionality as you aren't the first to want it:

Hey, Can we have multiple authors for a blog series?
I tried with our organization (me and my two kids, we're writing about game dev). Unfortunately it doesn't work.
I've never tried; it might be possible if they are both writing for the same organization?
Great, thanks for the information
Thank you sooo much! Life saver 💯
Hey, Bro (Nathan) can you share your markdown for this series?
Are you asking how to make that
Dev.to Writing (8 Part Series)
section in your screenshot? Or just a dump of each of these articles' original markdown?There's no markdown to creating that display, just a matter of a setting in
Post Options
or addition to the front-matter ofseries: My Series Name
and publishing at least two articles under the series and dev.to will display that section.okay
Thanks a lot! :)
Thanks for reading! (And I hopefully more writing ;)!)
Great article! Very helpful.
Easy to understand! Thank you.
If only there was an option to place the series window only after your post or only before or even not at all.
Personally I'd like to see only the earlier posts in the before content window and only subsequent posts in the after content window... somehow that just makes more sense to me.
Can we add a single article in multiple series?
