Any custom filter messes up subtask/task hierarchy in Board

[Andress Martin]

Hello,

I've tried a couple of versions of a custom filter for my boards. One of the most recent one is "project = ASU2 ORDER BY assignee ASC, priority DESC".

However, as you can see in the print below, whenever I do this, the subtasks get reordered to be on top of the tasks/stories, even though they have the same assignee and priority to them.

If I go back to the default filter, filtered by rank, it goes back to normal, respecting the hierarchy.

Why is this happening?

I haven't tried to duplicate this myself, but what happens if you add in another ORDER BY option at the end to order by issue type?

I've tried that, but it doesn't work unfortunately. It just makes it so that, if there are for example 2 bug issues and one task issue, they are grouped together at the end. But the subtasks still get shifted to the top of the parent issue.
