This is a legacy Toolset site using Layouts, with Views ordered by a custom number field. Recently I was asked to add additional posts and noticed that posts were no longer displaying in the order specified in that custom field. You can see in the attached screenshot that when editing the View, the Ordering part of the Query section where previously "As a number" was selected is now greyed out, leading me to believe that the underlying code for the View 'has issues'...
I tested the site with all plugins except Toolset's disabled and the problem persists.
