Sorting

Sort by Type use to Sort Type and Name. It seems anything after 5.5.3 only sorts Type and puts files out of alphabetical order.

Hope this can be fixed.

There was indeed a change to remote Type column sorting in 5.5.4:
Issue 1158 – Sorting by type is not consistent between local and remote panel

It now sorts by Type, Extension and Name. In most cases the change should have no effect as typically files with same Type have the same Extension.

Here is 2 SS's showing the issue I am having.
<invalid hyperlink removed by admin> - Fixed
<invalid hyperlink removed by admin> - Broken

OK, I see.

This issue has been added to the tracker:
Issue 1211 – Do not consider directory name "extension" when sorting file panel by file type
