Page Properties Report Sort By not working in the way I expect

Question

Hi I am using Page Properties Report to display a list of releases we are working on.

From the edit mode I set it as Order By SW Release Date, but it doesn't seem to apply the change as the item Jan 27 appears before Dec 6 2024.

Could someone please help ?

I don't see any pattern of the date being sorted in your screenshots.  I agree it looks like if any page has the date blank the sort is being ignored.  I will test this on my instance, you may have found a bug.

Hi Shawn,

It looks like this. It looks to me that if there SW Release Date is left blank then the order is not as expected.

Hi @Daisuke Yoshida

I was not able to reproduce this on my instance.  I have been able to sort by date.  While it does look like you are using the built-in data function to assign the dates, can you share how you are adding the dates to the child pages?
