Hi toolset,
Please see my video to help explain what I noticed: enlace oculto
Thank you!

Hi, I'll be glad to take a closer look. Can you tell me more about how you built this View - did you use the Block Editor, or the classic editor?
Hi Christain,
Thank you for your help. I normally use the classic editor; however, this page is set up a bit differently. Please see the video to better show how the page is set up.
Video: enlace oculto
Thank you,
Andrew
Thanks for the videos, would it be possible for you to copy + paste the codes from your Search and Pagination panel as well as the loop output editor here for me to review? I'm not able to replicate this exact issue in my local so I am curious to know what the difference is.
Hi Christian, yes, please see below

Okay I can see that the sortable table headers and the sorting control shortcode are not in sync for some reason. Please take a look at this shortcode:
[wpv-sort-orderby type="radio" options="field-wpcf-bid_date,post_date" label_for_field-wpcf-bid_date="Bid Date" label_for_post_date="Entry Date" orderby_as_numeric_for="field-wpcf-bid_date" orderby_ascending_for="field-wpcf-bid_date" orderby_descending_for="post_date"][wpv-sort-order type="list" options="asc,desc" label_for_asc="Ascending" label_for_desc="Descending" label_asc_for_field-wpcf-bid_date="Ascending" label_desc_for_field-wpcf-bid_date="Descending" label_asc_for_post_date="Ascending" label_desc_for_post_date="Descending" list_style="grey"]
It seems that "Entry Date" and post_date have been confused or convoluted here somehow. In the options argument, the two sortable criteria seem to be the bid date custom field and the post_date, instead of the event date custom field. Then when you click the table headings to sort by Event Date, the system gets confused because the Event date custom field is not one of the option criteria. I suspect this is why the random radio button appears and extra text is added to the sorting control area. I suggest you start by recreating this sorting control shortcode in the View. You can just highlight the entire shortcode and delete it, then click "Sorting controls" to start creating a new control. If the new control shortcode does not resolve the problem, take a look at the Entry Date column header shortcode:
[wpv-heading name="entry-date"]Entry Date:[/wpv-heading]
If the field is created in Types, I would expect the name to include the types-field- prefix like the other heading names. So I suspect something was changed inadvertently here, maybe a copy + paste error or something like that is responsible for this issue, but it's hard to say. I would try the name types-field-entry-date instead, then try to recreate the wpv-sort-orderby shortcode once again.
Please try that and let me know the results, and we can go from there.
Thank you Christian, you were absolutely correct. I went ahead and made sure the sorting control was for the "Entry Date" and made sure that my table header had the correct prefix.
Thank you!
