date browser default page doesn't list nodes properly [#89101]

I'm not 100% sure about this one cause it seems to me that yesterday everythings was alright.
Whatever.. I'm experiencing this (date 4.7.0 12/10/2006):
When I create a date browser(by month) view the first page (no arg supplied, actual month) is messed up (it doesn't display nodes in the correct order).
I tried to change the default field value to everything ( summary ascending, unsorted etc.) but the results are always the same.
(this happens if I supply the arg for this month, too)
Is this a bug?It's me?
How do I have to set the default field in the argument form to make this works?

Any help appreciated.

I replicate this in a fresh installation. I can confirm the bug is there:
When viewing the default page (no argument provided) only one node is displayed.
If I browse forward and then back to the current month view, nodes are displayed in the wrong order (by published date?).
So it seems that only the current month view is broken.

dodazzi, I can't replicate this. I have the right sort order set in the current month in a month view. You do have a sort order set in your view, right? If you are still seeing this with a sort order set in the latest version of the module, please let me know the following:

What type of date are you using (date or datestamp)?
What input format do you have (it's in the collapsed fieldset called 'advanced input options')?
What display format are you using?
What type of widget are you using?

Ok. It was me.
I don't know why but at some point I deleted the sort order.
So now everythings works.
Last question:
How do I have to set up the default view field? Right now I set it to 'Display all value'. If this is the correct way to set it up (or whatever it is) maybe you could add instructions to do so where you explain how to use the date browser (for dummies like me).

Thanks a lot for all the efforts on developing this 'must have' module.

The argument defaults (like Display all Values) are ways to display summary views -- the things you see before you get to your final view. When you use the date browser, there is no summary view (it gets overridden) so those values get ignored and it doesn't matter what you put there.

You're right, a number of these things need to be documented. Someday I'll get that done...
