I have a view with several fields that are related (ie. @camera-camera-issue.parent). All the other regular fields columns will sort asc/dec. But when I try to sort the related field columns I get 'no cameras found'. How can I fix this?

Thanks!

Hello. Thank you for contacting the Toolset support.

Do you mean that you want to sort your view result based on your parent post type custom field?

Yes I would ALSO like the ability to sort those columns that pull values from parent fields. Thanks!

I'm afraid that sorting view results with fields of parent post is not supported yet.
