 * I’ve selected to sort a high volume of tables as ‘Created At’ and ‘Newest First’
   but it’s not even vaguely working, the sort order isn’t even close to being in
   the order I added the rows.
 * I can’t provide the page URL as it’s a few dozen tables across a few dozen pages
   and for a logged-in-users-only website. I suppose I can supply it privately if
   necessary.
 * Is there some script I can add somewhere to force ‘Newest First’ to work globally?

 * Just a follow-up based on some tests I’ve run:
 * Unless I’m much mistaken, I believe the duplicate function is to blame. My tables
   consist of a lot of duplicating and it seems the newly duplicated rows appear
   as ‘older’ than their originals.
 * This is a huge hassle for me as, like I said, I have a few dozen tables. Having
   to edit all of them to add the rows as new rows rather than duplication is just
   a wildly terrible situation for me, the labour involved would be immense.
 * It’s an enormous bug if your duplication function makes the newer row older than
   the original.
