Sort by not working

[GoogleCodeExporter]

I see the sort functionality in the advanced tab under "content types", but it 
does not appear to be working.  I select Order by, and sort order, I change em 
back and forth to verify it works, and it never changes.

Steps to reproduce

Click on content types
Edit the content type in question
Go to advanced tab
Scroll down to "Order by", select "Job #" 
Select Sort Order (either DESC or ASC, I've changed to both but output on the 
page is always the same)

Side note: Job# field is a text field that requires a number.

Another sample page having the same problem: 
http://canyoncontracting.net/plan-room/

Date is the field we want to adjust sorting.  I've done the same steps above, 
changed to DESC, checked, changed to ASC, checked, no change in the listing 
order for sorting by date.

I came up with a resolution, and the issue isn't with the plugin, it's more 
with the documentation.  When placing the summarize header in like this:
[summarize_posts post_type="bid-board" before=" " after=" " 
orderby="bid_request_date" order="DESC"]

The "ORDERBY" and "ORDER" have to be set here.  The controls in the backend 
don't work, or at the very least were created for something else that I have no 
clue what it does but it's in the wrong spot if that's the case.

But the above should get this working.

Thanks, appreciate the help! Will see if I can get it to work this way.

The controls in the backend are for the list view in the manager ONLY.  This is 
documented if you click on the question-mark @ top right of that manager page 
(https://code.google.com/p/wordpress-custom-content-type-manager/wiki/CreatePost
Type).  So if you want to sort your list of Books by publication date, the 
controls there affect the manager view.  For your own custom queries in the 
front-end, you can use the summarize-posts shortcode and specify whatever 
filters and ordering clauses you want.
