The new display format is actually because of the introduction of community voting (git commit 61152c6ae9402a547f216b924f121491bfbd934b[1], et al). The feature introduced the sorting bug which is inconvenient for some users, but is technically not a bug. ^1: http://git.php.net/? p=web/php.git;a=commit;h=61152c6ae9402a547f216b924f121491bfbd934b ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2013-02-14 20:42:48] disposable at grahamwideman dot com Description: ------------ On php.net pages, the user notes at the bottom of the page are shown in what appears to be random order. In any case, it's not reverse date order. This makes it difficult to examine only notes since a particular date, and also difficult to notice notes that are responses to other notes. This appears to be a regression of bug #23991. Test script: --------------- n/a Expected result: ---------------- I expect notes to be in reverse order of date, per bug #23991 Actual result: -------------- Notes are shown in no recognizable order. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=64213&edit=1
