I have noticed that. I don’t yet have an explanation for it. The query we do Is pretty straightforward, but it seems latest versions of the JS library may disagree. We’re on it. I still don’t know why it’s happening, but I can reproduce it.

Same for me and for the demo.. but on the "view all" page its sorted correctly.

[snipe]

@jovibroz Yeah, I can see it too - what's bizarre is that those two screens use the exact same API call, and if you call just via API, it sorts as expected. It's a head-scratcher.

@inietov FYI, the CH for this is 15305

I'm glad I'm just a sound engineer with the required computer skills to keep a workstation (and a few ubuntu servers) runnin! :) I'd stay up all night, every night to fix those kinda things if only I knew how :)
10 PRINT "YO!"
20 GOTO 10
RUN

Hah, that's pretty much what it looks like on our end, too :D

\Log::debug('IS THE SKY EVEN BLUE WTF');

We did update the bootstrap-tables javascript, but the weird part is that it was updated everywhere, so I'd expect to see at least consistent behavior. I know in the past I've tried adding the normal table headers (the reload, export, etc) and it seemed to fix it, but that kind doesn't make any sense either (and I really didn't want to jank up the UI with those elements on the dashboard.)

Awesome fix in 5.04. Just a notice that the backups flipped order with this one :)

[snipe]

Huh. I didn’t even do anything with backups in that release.
