Zotero beta: sorting by item type column is broken

qqbb · July 10, 2022

In the latest beta, 6.0.10-beta.4+124c18d54, sorting by item type and by BBT's citation key isn't working for me.

I reverted to the earlier version 6.0.10-beta.2+035702686 where sorting works as expected.

Sorting by Item Type is fixed in the latest beta.

Plugin authors will need to update their plugins to allow sorting by custom columns. (As explained there, this change is to prevent breakage caused by an unknown plugin.)

Actually, we're going to try to address this in a way that doesn't require plugin changes (though we'd still like to identify the plugin that caused the original problem here). We should have a new beta out soon that restores sorting on custom columns.
