Wix Editor CMS Sorting for display on gallery not displaying sorting on page

How does sorting work or why is it not working, I created a field to order the way i want to display my portfolio items- i plug in the gallery and try to set up

this is profoundly frustrating. I have seen a mirroring feature that isn’t available for me

whats the point of a CMS that cant be sorted for user display on a live page?

how is this accommodated?
Product:
[Which editor or feature is your question most relevant to? e.g. Wix Editor, Wix Studio Editor, Editor X.]

What are you trying to achieve:
[Explain the details of what you are trying to achieve. The more details you provide, the easier it is to understand what you need.]

What have you already tried:
[Share resources, forum topics, articles, or tutorials you’ve already used to try and answer your question.]

Additional information:
[Include any other pertinent details or information that might be helpful for people to know when trying to answer your question.]

The sorting is done on the page itself via the dataset settings that you used to connect the elements. (If you used code to connect, then you add the sorting line in the code.)

The sorting does not come from your database settings because that is just for backend management view.
