[Gelöst] When more than 8 items in repeatable group, sort order does not work

I am trying to display repeatable groups in a view. I have the view working and it is set to sort by toolset-post-sortorder.

But when there are more than 8 items in the repeatable fields, the sort order is not respected. The later items are appearing after the first item in the view.

Link to a page where the issue can be seen:
versteckter Link

I expected to see:
a layout like this: versteckter Link

Instead, I got:
The sort order is not working when there are more than 8 items in the repeatable groups.

I have tried switching to a different theme, checking post limits, running with minimal plugins, recreated the page and repeatable groups

Can you please clarify when looking at those links for new and old sales what we are supposed to be looking at, how we know there is a problem with what we are looking at?

Thanks.

Hi Nigel,

(forget about the old-sales page now)

On versteckter Link each square in the grid layout is a repeatable field group. So some have coloured backgrounds and text, some have images.

The view outputs the field groups in the layout like this (according to ascending toolset-post-sortorder):
1 2
3 4
5 6
7 8

But when there are more than 8, the output is like this:
1 10
11 12
2 3
4 5
6 7
8 9

Hope that clarifies. It's a real puzzler.

Hi.

Just after I sent the response, I figured it out. Seeing the numbers laid out like that made me realise.

My ordering setting was "as a native custom field"

I change that to "as a number".

Problem solved. Sorry to bother you.

My issue is resolved now. Thank you!
