[5.x]: Sorting of Structures/Entries does not work

[philipschilling]

What happened?

Description

The sorting of Structure Entries does not work for me. The sorting element disappears after the selection of a value (e.g. Title) from the dropdown. The sorting does not change. I tested it in the latest Chrome and Safari browser on Mac.

For the Channels Entries the sorting does work for me.

Steps to reproduce

1. Open Entries tab
2. Open "Structures"
3. Click "View" button"
4. By default the sorting elements are not shown
5. Click on Channels
6. Click again on Structures
7. Now the sorting elements are shown but they disappear once selected and the sorting does not change

Expected behavior

The sorting elements shall not disappear + the entries shall be sorted by the selected field.

Actual behavior

See description.

I think the bug here is that the sorting options should not be visible while you have 'structure' view selected.

Hi, thanks for reporting! Yes, the bug is that you shouldn’t see the sorting options when in the structure view mode (like you couldn’t see them in Craft 4); more precisely, when you switch to a channel and then structure again, the sorting options are not hiding properly. PR to follow.

Got that fixed for the next release.

Awesome. Thank you.

Craft 4.8.8 and 5.0.3 are out with the fix for this. Thanks again!
