Chicago style sort in-text citations with multiple works by date

mwilliams
I'm formatting an article for a journal that requires in-text citations to be sorted chronologically. I've tried the following:

<citation et-al-min="4" et-al-use-first="1" disambiguate-add-year-suffix="true" disambiguate-add-names="true" disambiguate-add-givenname="true" givenname-disambiguation-rule="primary-name">
<sort>
<key macro="year-date"/>
<key macro="author-short"/>
</sort>
<layout prefix="(" suffix=")" delimiter="; ">
<group delimiter=", ">

That didn't change the order of the citations in the test pane. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

    And, as always, as soon as I posted this (after almost an hour of trying to figure it out), I figured it out. For future reference, I used:

    <citation et-al-min="4" et-al-use-first="1" disambiguate-add-year-suffix="true" disambiguate-add-names="true" disambiguate-add-givenname="true" givenname-disambiguation-rule="primary-name">
    <sort>
    <key macro="issued"/>
    <key macro="author-short"/>
    </sort>
    <layout prefix="(" suffix=")" delimiter="; ">
    <group delimiter=", ">
