visual studio sort order

Question

I have a C# app in Visual studio coded. One of the parts of this app is to sort coupons. Right now, coupons are sorted in descending order by end date. There is an option already in there to make coupons exclusive offers. I was wondering if there was a way to sort coupons by sort order, then by exlusivity, and then by the end date.

Here is a sample of the code:

var allLocalCoupons = merchant.Coupons
            .Where(c => c.IsActive
                        && c.StartDate <= DateTime.Now
                        && (c.EndDate > DateTime.Now || c.EndDate == null)
                        && (c.ExclusiveCouponOffer == ApplicationCode || 
c.ExclusiveCouponOffer == null))
            .OrderBy(c => c.EndDate)
            .ToList();

I tried that, but it just keeps the active coupons first, and the exclusive coupons come after. Is there something I have to do to change the active coupons status? — ron773, Jun 14 '18 at 15:14

Just use .ThenBy or .ThenByDescending after

Example:

_dbContext.Users.OrderBy(u => u.Name).ThenBy(u => u.LastName);
