No sort by date added for playlists in Server 4.8.6

[Tremas 199]

I’ve seen this in issue on web, iOS, and Roku so I expect it is server related. When going to the playlist library or any library’s playlist tab and clicking sort options (three horizontal lines), the list do not include “date added.” This option was available in previous server builds, so I assume this is a bug. 

There is a sort option for “release date,” which I would suggest is unnecessary for playlists. Perhaps “release date” was scheduled for removal and “date added” was removed by mistake? I’m ok if both are available, but date added is absolutely critical for daily use.

image from iOS (sort by “Date Added” is missing.

Adding an image from the web application. As you can see, no "by Date Added" in the sort menu (however, there is still "release date" which is not useful).

Wait.. just realized this may be related to playlists created before 4.8. Need to do some testing.

Why do you say that?

Most of my playlists are ones that were created before 4.8. I just haven't had time to work through all permutations of what is working and what isn't, so there is a non-zero chance this only applies to libraries with "old" playlists that existed prior to 4.8. I just haven't checked is all.

Are you able to re-create on your end?

Yes. The available sort orders on this screen do need some adjustment. Thanks.

Ok, great. Thanks for looking into it, everyone!
