The sort field doesn’t necessarily correspond to the order new cards are introduced in; that’s the job of the due column. You can anyway change the positions of new cards to agree with the sort field by first sorting by the sort field, then using the Cards > Reposition option.
Thank you, I will try that, although it looks like the order is correct. My last shown new card was “assets”, #511, so when sorted by due date, I’d expect the lower # cards to be picked first:
Unfortunately it is still not working. I reordered all the new cards, but today, my first new card was New #26, not #0. See screenshot. (#11-#25 was yesterday, but I wanted to wait another day to be sure.)
