I am trying to: I have a wordpress archive view that is set up to order based on post date. However it doesnt matter what setting i use for the 'order by' field. the view always orders the posts alphabetically. The wordpress archive in question is a woocommerce product category.

Link to a page where the issue can be seen: hidden link

See the link above which shows the posts displaying in alphabetical and the attached image which shows the setting set to order by 'post date'

Hello,

The problem you mentioned above is abnormal, please try these:

1) Make sure you are using the latest version of Toolset plugins, you can download them here:
https://toolset.com/account/downloads/

2) In case it is a compatibility problem, please deactivate all other plugins, and switch to wordpress default theme 2019, deactivate all custom PHP/JS code snippets, and test again

3) If the problem still persists, please provide database dump file(ZIP file) of your website, also point out the problem page URL and view URL, I need to test and debug it in my localhost, thanks
