Flest 9 Posted 1 hour ago Posted 1 hour ago The Sort Album (SortName) metadata tag is correctly respected when viewing the "Audiobooks" tab in the main library. However, this logic appears to be broken or ignored on the Author (Artist) page. Current Behavior: Main Library View: Books are sorted correctly according to the Sort Album tag. Author Page: Books are displayed in "Newest to Oldest" order (Release Date Descending). Author -> "Albums": The sorting here is also questionable. It currently appears to follow the Release Date (Ascending), which in my specific case matches the Sort Album order. However, it is unconfirmed whether this tab actually respects the Sort Album tag or simply defaults to "Date: Oldest first". The Core Issue: For audiobook series, "Newest to Oldest" sorting is counter-intuitive. If an author has multiple series released out of chronological order, the Author page becomes disorganized because it ignores the Sort Album / SortName field. Steps to reproduce: Main Library View. Verify the order is correct in the main Audiobooks library. Navigate to the Author’s page. Observe that books are sorted by date (newest first), ignoring the sort tag. Check the "Albums" under the Author — it needs verification whether it follows the Sort Album tag or just the date. Expected behavior: The SortName (Sort Album) tag should be the primary sorting key across all views (Main Library, Author page, and Albums tab) to ensure series continuity.
