  • Tag Widgets Updating Feeds Out of Order

    I have two Tag widgets on my homepage, one called 'Shadow the Hedgehog' and another called 'Sonic X Shadow Generations'.

    1. I created a Forum topic last Friday, tagged as 'Sonic X Shadow Generations' (and 'News'), but not 'Shadow the Hedgehog'.
    2. Later, I created a Club Forum topic on Monday, tagged it as 'Shadow the Hedgehog' only.
    3. Then, I uploaded some Gallery images, all with the tag 'Sonic X Shadow Generations' only.
    4. Finally, today, I went back to the Forum topic created on Friday (in Step 1) and added the tag 'Shadow the Hedgehog' (did not edit the topic).

    With the above steps and context in mind, this is what my two Tag widgets are now displaying as a result of Step 4:

    Could contain: Person, Book, Comics, Publication, Face, Head

    The topic that was newly-tagged has been positioned at the very front of the 'Shadow the Hedgehog' widget (ahead of the other entry that was created more recently - check the dates of creation in the red circles), and has been re-positioned in the 'Sonic X Shadow Generations' widget to again sit at the top of the feed.

    I thought the default sort order for Tag widgets was 'creation date', but it seems that instead it is simply the date a tag was added to a piece of content... if that is working as intended then I can live with it for the first widget (I did add the 'Shadow the Hedgehog' tag to the older topic AFTER I added it to the second entry), but it should not be happening for the second widget ('Sonic X Shadow Generations') because the topic already had that particular tag assigned to it upon creation and has no reason to sit at the front of the feed ahead of more recent content.
