Search results by Newest not working?

My site isn't revealed yet so I can't share an example. Can someone confirm that search results in new smug will not sort by Newest? When I try, the sort order is by PhotoRank. Selecting PhotoRank or Oldest works fine.

Is it just me, or a bug?

    For me, sort by Oldest works fine, sort by Newest doesn't work but is always the same as sort by PhotoRank, I've no idea if sort by PhotoRank works because there are no Rank insignia.

    To me, I want to see the newest first and I can't find a setting that works.

    Clarification after further testing:
    • The above is true when sorting the search results for Photos.
    • When sorting the search results for Galleries everything seems to work fine, but I'm not sure if it's sorting by date created, by date of latest update or by any other date criterion. Furthermore, I'm unsure as to how a Gallery would be PhotoRanked.
    • I only have one video on SM so a sort of the search result would be rather pointless.

    Just searched for videos (photos+videos). Oldest works but have to page down and watch 100's of images
    load to get to the bottom. Very time consuming. Need "newest" at top to work as any other sort is worthless.

    Oldest - works
    Newest - busted
    PhotoRank - useless, who know if working
