Hi Kristina,
Sorry for the delay - start of term!

I've re-tested based on your comments, and have discovered a doozy of a
knock-on effect - which either confuses or clarifies the bug. I'll
outline the testing steps as I carried them out to discover what's
actually happening - though I can't say how the effect is being caused.

Sort shared pages & collections by "most recently updated"
Display within the block reads "Collections shared with this group"
Result - order changes from what was displayed under alphabetical. No date information is displayed so can only presume it is chronological

Sort submitted pages and collections by "most recently updated"
Display within the block reads "Submissions to this group"
Result - the order doesn't change from alphabetical
Dates show 'time of submission' and are not chronologically ordered 
eg 1st four items in sequence display following submission dates 20 Aug 2.12pm, 20 Aug 8.00pm, 21st Aug 12.26pm, 19 Aug 1.42pm, and the titles are alphabetical Brandon, Caitlin, Mansour, Matthew.

I THEN discovered that if I switch "Sort shared pages and collections"
back to Alphabetical while leaving sumbitted pages as 'most recently
updated' the "Submissions to this group" order then changes - and this
time does display chronologically. So it appears that sorting by date in
the SHARED sort menu has an affect on the display of the SUBMITTED sort
order.

Regards, Gordon.

Title:
  Sort submitted pages "Most recently submitted" doesn't work

Status in Mahara:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Hello,

  When adding a 'pages shared' block to a group, one of the settings is "Sort submitted pages and collections" by "Most recently updated". While trying to use this with a group (v15.04)  I've found that the displayed sort order of the shared pages doesn't change from the default 'alphabetically'.
  Worth noting it would also be worth having the option to display pages in the order 'most recently shared' - subtly different from when they were updated but a useful feature if it could be added.

  Regards, Gordon.
