How would I sort by title using biblatex? I'm writing in Arabic with the package xepersian.
Simply define your own sorting scheme that sorts how you want, something like this in your preamble (see the documentation for \DeclareSortingScheme
in the manual):
\DeclareSortingScheme{tyn}{
\sort{
\field{presort}
}
\sort[final]{
\field{sortkey}
}
\sort{
\field{sorttitle}
\field{title}
}
\sort{
\field{sortyear}
\field{year}
}
\sort{
\field{sortname}
\field{author}
\field{editor}
\field{translator}
\field{sorttitle}
\field{title}
}
\sort{
\field{volume}
\literal{0}
}
}
and then add the global option sorting=tyn
to your load options:
\usepackage[style=authoryear,sorting=tyn]{biblatex}
