Hi, I wonder if it is possible to use https://www.sanity.io/guides/getting-started-with-structure-builder and manage order of displayed items??We can use
filter and params to specify elements but what about order of them ...? Lets have items and for each of them display list of tags (other document) they have referenced, but keep order of this references? Is it possible?

Btw, I actually found the 
ordering
property on individual schemas to solve this in a better way for me https://www.sanity.io/docs/sort-orders

Also, the link above doesn’t give 502 anymore 😌 Thanks for the quick fix!
