Django date query from newest to oldest

Question

I am building my first Django program from scratch and am running into troubles trying to print out items to the screen from newest to oldest. My model has an auto date time fie

Answer 1

ordered_tasks = TaskItem.objects.order_by('-created_date')

The order_by() method is used to order a queryset. It takes one argument, the attribute by which the queryset will be ordered. Prefixing this key with a - sorts in reverse order.
