Could you explain "is not working" a bit more?

That is a bit of a wide-ranging question, and I can already answer some of it and take a guess at a bit more.

The partial answer I have is that putting "order by" in a quick-filter will not do anything.  Personally, I would like Atlassian to get rid of the "order by" bit of filters, simply because it confuses us a lot, and it is not anywhere as useful as most of us intuit it might be.

All a quick filter does is narrow-down what you see on your board.  It cannot add issues to a board and it can not re-sort the board.  So, for Atlassian, a "quick filter" does some very simple stuff and I think your expectation is more than what they have done.

Let's assume your board is "domestic pets".  The board query says "issuetype in (dog, cat, bunny) order by fluffiness"  (and each pet is an "issue").  A quick filter can narrow it down to dog/cat/bunny, but it can't draw in "snake", or order by how many teeth the pet has because that's not what the board filter says.

I know that's not a great analogy, but I hope it enables you to explain more about what is not working for you?
