Sort A-Z does not sort properly on saved logins.

I went to Firestorm Lockwise and searched for "Second" as I have 12 logins with that word in them.

One of the first things you learn when testing something is "turn it off and back on again." So when I noticed on Firestorm Lockwise on viewing logins, "Sort by: (Name A-Z)" was not sorting alphabetically, I switched to "Sort by: Last Used" then back to A-Z. Every time I switch back and forth, A-Z is in a different order, and never alphabetically.

This needs to be fixed.

Looks like you filed a bug for this. I wasn't able to replicate it on my end, it appeared to sort A-Z correctly, even after searching. Hmmm.

For me sorting A-z seems to be working as well and is sorting by "Website address" and Username for multiple logins for a website.

How many logins do you have (only a few or several hundreds or even more)?

First I want to apologize for putting 'Firestorm', obviously I meant FireFox :)

Anyway, I have 71 total saved logins, but for id.secondlife.com I now have 13. I was looking at the list unfiltered as well, and the second life logins are not in alphabetical order on the unfiltered list either.

For that website, the list went k, f, d, l, k, d, f, j, b, l, b, b, d. When I changed it to sort by last modified, then back to A-Z, the list went d, b, b, l, b, j, f, d, k, l, d, f, k

Interestingly, I have 2 logins for Google and it is putting 'dist' first and 'dism' second. I have 2 for Verizon Wireless and it is putting 'dist' first and 'dev' second. I have 2 for Spectrum and it is putting 'dist' first and 'dism' second. I have 2 for CapitalOne, Walmart, and DigiWorldz, all 3 are reversed same as Google, Verizon, and Spectrum.

The websites are alphabetically sorted properly, the individual logins to those websites are not.

If the websites are sorted properly then at least that is working. I don't know if the is a second stage for sorting multiple logins for a website or that the natural order like stored in logins.json is being used. If you do not use a master password then you can also search/filter for passwords, so if that applies then check the passwords.

Well I am a naughty user and re-use passwords, so those logins have the same password. The Verizon logins however, have different passwords, but it still puts dist in front of dev, and if it was sorting by password dev should come first.
