I discovered this was a problem with a version of 'UmbracoSearch2' I was using.
The Media_AfterSave event in this dll was throwing an exception (null reference of some sort) and thus halting the core umbraco sort. The simplest solution was just to catch the exception and re-compile the dll.
Media sort not working
I'm having trouble sorting media items.
Open sort dialog, click 'Name' (to sort alphabetically) click save
This works, however, the sort order (for a total of 14 items) is then as follows;
0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 5, 6, 6, 7, 8, 9, 11, 11 ... strange!
After this, when sorting individual items it wants to revert the order back to what I can only assume is creation order.
What's going on?
Incidentally I can't edit my post on this forum I get; Error parsing XSLT file: \xslt\forum-commentsList.xslt
Additional info for above post;
Edit: this issue is on v4.7.1 and also upgrading to v4.7.2 hasn't fixed it
