@anon14138578, While it hasn’t changed for projects, it has become automatic in My Tasks (it just always remembers the changes you made) and has been removed from there. So if you were asking about My Tasks, that should address it but reply if not!
Suddenly my default sort order won’t stay. Every time I open asana my tasks are ordered by project name. It’s really throwing me off. I set it back to sort by Due date, but it won’t stay that way. This just started this week!
