Hello @Mary Elizabeth Monda ,

The Sort order on the boards are controlled by the board filter, and by default this option is set to "ORDER BY Rank ASC" which enables the drag and drop sorting options to prioritize issues.  Changing the filter to "ORDER BY priority"  would allow you to change the sorting options to the alternate method.

Check out the following documentation that discusses this further, noting that sorting by any field other than Rank will disable the drag and drop ranking functionality:

Regards,
Earl
