P: Some keywords not in alphabetical order

Since I have updated to LR Classic, I have an issue with my keyword list. I have hierarchical keywords. Some on the top level are numbered and some of the top level have no child keywords. Since the update the keywords on the top level and the second level hierarchy are no longer in alphabetical order. Some keywords seem to be ordered correctly, but several others are not. The keywords which are not ordered alphabetically seem to get ordered by a change/creation date or so.

I do not use LR CC and have not done any keyword changes on my mobile devices.

Has anybody an idea, what I could do about it? Is there I setting, I have missed?

Please do Help > System Info and report the exact version number. (The LR update mechanism is unreliable and often fools people into thinking they're on "the latest".)

I use macOS High Sierra (latest release) and have updated to LR 7.0.1 when it was released. This update has not fixed my issue with the keywords.

Do you use a Macintosh running High Sierra? Update to Lr Classic 7.01. The update fixes a problem with the sort order of several lists.
