Sort by anything other than "Title" no longer working in 5.0.97-beta.40
5.0.97-beta.40+952663de7 macOS 10.13.6
E.g., sort by "Creator", "Year" or "Date Added" no longer working
Sort by "Title" works
Also, main "My Library" view no longer shows all the items (says there should be 99663 items, but only a few hundred shown)

There's an issue in beta.40 [fixed now in 42] where if you select a collection while another is loading at startup, it can show the old contents. We're fixing that for the next version, but is it possible that's what you're seeing? If you switch to another collection and back, do you not see your items?
We're not seeing anything wrong with sorting here.
I upgraded to .42 and the problem is still there.
Also, when first started, the view doesn't seem to be sorted at all.
The only sort that is working is by Title (ascending and descending).
I wanted to try changing the columns that were displayed to see if that affected things, except that the icon that one previously clicked to control which columns are present seems to be gone (unless I am mis-remembering that it ever existed).
Here are a few screenshots that should be self-explanatory:

Thanks for your help with this ... David
We'll be pushing out a fix for the sorting shortly, but you can fix it temporarily by right-clicking on the header, as I say.
If you're still not seeing all items at startup in the latest beta, can you start a new thread and provide a Debug ID for Zotero startup through display of the incomplete list, using the "Restart with Logging Enabled" option?
