[Resolved] Archive sort not working

This thread is resolved. Here is a description of the problem and solution.

Problem: I have sorting controls built in to my WordPress Archive, but they do not appear to work. When I change the sorting controls, nothing happens.

Solution: Use the Custom Search settings to select an option that does not require a submit button.

In the Custom Search settings for this WordPress Archive, you have selected an option that requires Users to click a Submit button: hidden link
You should check the Custom Search settings for the View and use the same configurations.
