Custom Blog turned Glossary Post Order

Running Bedford 7.0. We created a custom glossary using blog post functionality. The posts under each letter are in post order; we're trying to switch it to alphabetical order.

We created a configuration file in developer mode with the following. Does anyone have any suggestions on changing the sort order?

{
    "title" : "Glossary",
    "ordering" : "chronological",
    "addText" : "Add Glossary",
    "acceptTypes": ["text"]
}

the .list file that controls the page is here:

<div class="glossary-list">

  {.repeated section items}
  <article class="entry h-entry {@|item-classes}" id="article-{id}" data-item-id="{id}">

    <header class="entry-header">
      
      <h1 data-content-field="title" class="entry-title p-name">
      {.passthrough?}
        <a href="{sourceUrl}" class="entry-title-passthrough" target="_blank">{title}</a>
      {.or}
        <a href="{fullUrl}" class="u-url" rel="bookmark">{title}</a>
      {.end}
      </h1>
    </header>

    <div class="entry-content">
      {.excerpt?}
        <div class="p-summary">{excerpt}</div>
        <p class="entry-more-link"><a data-read-more="{localizedStrings.readMore}" href="{fullUrl}"></a></p>
      {.end}
    </div>

  

    {.if postItemInjectCode}<div class="entry-injection">{postItemInjectCode}</div>{.end}

  </article>
  {.end}

  {.if pagination}
  <nav class="pagination clear" data-paginate="scroll">
    <div class="newer">{.if pagination.prevPage}<a href="{pagination.prevPageUrl}" rel="prev"><span class="prev-label">{localizedStrings.newerPosts}</span></a>{.end}</div><!-- comment the linebreak between these two elements because science
        --><div class="older">{.if pagination.nextPage}<a href="{pagination.nextPageUrl}" rel="next"><span class="next-label">{localizedStrings.olderPosts}</span></a>{.end}</div>
  </nav>
  {.end}

</div>

In the .conf file, the ordering key pair is used to set the collection order, but the available values are chronological, user-orderable and calendar. There isn't an alphabetical option.

Looks like the option is to modify the blog published date manually...
