When you go to any of the "All filters by this author" pages on the filter library, they are shown in a order that is not the date they have been made and published

So, please, I want to know what order is taken to show the filters made by an author shown on filter library?

It can not be by date because on my SpaceRay filters page the first one is not the first one I made, or the last one in the list is not either the first one I made

Is it by popularity, number of downloads or how is made?

Is it fixed how is shown and is always the same or it can change with time and is dynamic?

thanks

Sort order is always by Vladimir's Tricky Algorithm and can't be changed.

Thanks GMM,

I see, so the filters are shown by usage rank, so the first ones to appear are the most used, and the last ones are the least used

I find this good and great way to do it, as this way appears the best and most used filters at the top of author list

I don't think that's exactly right GMM.
Depending on what page you are looking at ("all filters by _", "featured", "recent", by category, etc.), they are sorted differently.
They can be sorted by Editor's Pick status, usage, or date.
And if you resubmit a filter, it looks like the resubmission date counts, not the original date.

SpaceRay specifically asked about the "All filters by this author" page, not about every page in the library.
Of course resubmission overwrites the original date.

Yes, you are right, others can be changed, but this one I asked, did not have any, so this is why I asked how it was shown as I could not not guess or know
