Sorting in alphabetical order is completely pointless as it only works if the language is english. As soon as you switch to use another language the order is completely meaningless. That is why the order currently matches the column order. It wasnt just a random act.

@brianteeman Thanks for providing info about the sorting order, I have reverted back to previous order but changed some order to align frontend with backend. Could you please let me know if there is a reason to not having sort by rating and published in frontend whereas it is present in backend. Thank you

If the item you are sorting by is not displayed is there any point in that sort order as you can't see the results

But the item like Date modified will be useful when they want to access recently modified items. I added it in the frontend, Should I remove that too?
