When I use Filter by post relationship, Dropdown's Options sorting are 'Post title', 'PostID', 'Post date', 'Post last modified date' and 'Post comment count'.

I want to setup Dropdown's Options sorting by 'slug'.

I filed the request here, where it also can be upvoted:
https://toolset.com/feature-request/allow-order-by-slug-post_name-in-filter-by-post-relationship-repeatable-field-groups-owner/
https://toolset.com/feature-request/?wpv_post_search=Allow+Order+by+Slug+%28post_name%29+in+Filter+by+post+relationship+%2F+repeatable+field+groups+owner&wpv_sort_orderby=post_date&wpv_sort_orderby_as=string&wpv_view_count=686737

The request might get a low traction because it is rare that the post title differs a lot from the post slug, however, I see the usage case, and our developers will consider the request to be implemented in future, as well taking votes in the account.
We can not provide ETA's or promise an implementation, however.

Thank you Beda,

I want to explain my request's background.
In my usage, I set 47 Prefectures and 10000 Stations in post relationships.

I set custom post types not taxonomies, because toolset doesn't support hierarchical taxonomy search filters.

My language (Japanese) has chinese characters.
If post title starts from chinese characters, sorting by post title is not user friendly. This is the reason I need sorting by slug option.

Thanks for clarifying this scenario.

Our Developers will consider the features according to several things, as well such scenarios.
