https://github.community/t/sort-issues-by-priority/750. This is from the GitHub question forum, here is the response from a staff member: Thanks for this feedback! We’re always working to improve GitHub and the GitHub Community Forum, and we consider every suggestion we receive. I’ve logged your feature request in our internal feature request list. Though I can’t guarantee anything or share a timeline for this, I can tell you that it’s been shared with the appropriate teams for consideration.
One thing to note while you’re waiting for the above is that you can probably achieve something pretty close to what you want with Labels 36 and Projects 28. You can assign a priority to an issue via a label and then sort them into columns or in priority order in a project. I know it isn’t as simple as what you’re asking for, but you should be able to get it pretty close for now.
