[User Settings] Sort/Filter Enrollments by Term in User Profile view

When pulling up a User's profile from the Admin view, it's a pain to figure out which courses they're enrolled in this term, because the list is only sorted alphabetically, not by Term or by which courses have been completed. 

If I could hide the completed enrollments or closed Terms - or at least sort the list so that the most recent Term shows up on top instead of mixed in - it would make things a lot easier when I'm trying to manage which courses my students are enrolled in each Term. 

Here's a screenshot of the view I'm talking about - you can see two different terms (2019-2020 and 2020-2021) mixed up:

@joni I made a small tweak in the code. I am not sure if you grabbed it yet but I edited it 9/10/2020 at 9:00pm central time. and I will be waiting patiently for my cookie.

function sortCoursesPeopleView() {
  const checkIfNull = async (selector) => {
    while (document.querySelector(selector) === null) {
      await new Promise((resolve) => requestAnimationFrame(resolve));
    }
    return document.querySelector(selector);
  };
  checkIfNull("#user-info-fieldsets").then(() => {
    const enrollmentsFieldset = document.querySelector("#courses > #content");
    enrollmentsFieldset.setAttribute("style","resize: vertical; overflow: scroll; font-size: 0.8em; height:200px;");
    const subFieldset = document.querySelector("#courses_list > div > ul");
    subFieldset.setAttribute("style", "margin-left: 5px; font-size: 0.9em; margin-bottom: 10px; overflow:auto");

    let ulList = document.querySelector("#courses_list > div > ul");
    let items = ulList.querySelectorAll("li");

    for (
      let i = 0, arr = ["active", "completed", "unpublished"];
      i < arr.length;
      i++
    ) {
      for (let j = 0; j < items.length; j++) {
        if (~(" " + items[j].className + " ").indexOf(" " + arr[i] + " "))
          ulList.appendChild(items[j]);
      }
    }
  });
}sortCoursesPeopleView();

Long overdue and something that should be built into Canvas enrollment area.

Great idea. Advanced filters would be much appreciated.

This is one of the features in the free Chrome extension that I have been developing as a side project.  It includes filters for the course published status, enrollment status, and term.  It also sorts the enrollments to have the active enrollments at the top of the list. Creating a Chrome Extension to Use with Canvas LMS 

Hopefully this becomes a native Canvas feature in the future.
