Order WordPress Custom Post Type Lists by Column

By default, posts are sorted by the date published.

Paste the code below into your theme’s functions.php file to order the posts differently

//order custom post type posts list in admin
function posts_for_current_author($query) {
 
  if($query->is_admin) {
 
        if ($query->get('post_type') == 'members') //custom post type
        {
          $query->set('orderby', 'title'); //order by this column
          $query->set('order', 'ASC');
        }
  }
  return $query;
}
add_filter('pre_get_posts', 'posts_for_current_author');
