Ordering of elements in the main nav menu on the left is still broken

[chhh]

There's:

• date in front matter
• weight in front matter
• weight in the config

No matter what I'm changing - the order of elements stays the same in the nav menu.

Using Hugo 0.24.1

In my case all menu items are ordered correctly but the first one (which has a weight of 0!) Have you tried setting the weight of the first menu item from 0 to 1 ? This seemed to fix the ordering for me.

I had to remove dates everywhere and set a through numbering with weights for every top level page and every sub page, then it worked. And the numbering needs to be either strictly positive or strictly negative numbers. This is all weird..

I guess its because of this line: https://github.com/gohugoio/hugo/blob/b2e3748a4e148a9624b9906bd8f34a238a54429c/hugolib/pageSort.go#L63

Dunno why they catch out these Weight == 0 cases. Edit: See https://github.com/gohugoio/hugo/issues/2673
