Trying to sort by rank, not working

[juanrosas04]

This is my current task query and its not giving me errors but its not sorting the groups by rank, idk if this is possible.

not done
is not blocked
(filter by function task.file.folder === 'Efforts/On/') OR (filter by function task.file.folder === 'Efforts/Ongoing/') OR (filter by function task.file.filenameWithoutExtension === 'To-Do') 
sort by function reverse task.file.property('rank')
group by function task.file.filenameWithoutExtension
limit groups to 5 tasks 

This is the way the properties are made:

---
up:
  - "[[School Work]]"
created: 2024-08-24
rank: 3
---

please let me know what i am doing wrong.

Thanks in advance

Thank you for providing text that I can copy.

I will look at his when I have time.

In the meantime, I’ve reformattted the block containing the frontmatter so it is readable and copy-able.

It's working for me.

A good way to test "debug" sort by function instructions is to convert them to group by function instructions.

I tested your code with these examples:

2.md

---
up:
  - "[[School Work]]"
created: 2024-08-24
rank: 2
---

- [ ] Two

3.md

---
up:
  - "[[School Work]]"
created: 2024-08-24
rank: 3
---

- [ ] Three

query.md

```tasks
folder includes {{query.file.folder}}
group by function reverse task.file.property('rank')
```

The result was this, showing that task.file.property('rank') was interpreted correctly:

So @juanrosas04, I need something more concrete and specific than:

its not sorting the groups by rank,
