I’m using the following in Builder to try to get a post field type sorted by title, but no matter what variations I try, the posts are still sorted by post date instead. Do order/orderby not work for the post field type?

Hi,

Can you please share the code that creates the field post on your site? Refer to this documentation https://docs.metabox.io/extensions/meta-box-builder/#getting-php-code

You can also try to deactivate all plugins except Meta Box, MB extensions and switch to the standard theme of WordPress (2022), or remove all other custom fields and recheck this issue.

I figured it out. I had a plugin called Post Types Order installed. It was overriding order, even though I thought I had sorting disabled for this specific post type. I found a filter to use that ensures the plugin doesn't affect this post type. So order/orderby query args are working as expected now. Thanks!
