steps to reproduce the bug:
1. go to your collections
2. click on "collection name" to sort alphabetically
3. click on "(+)"
4. click on "edit collection"
5. edit collection
6. click on "go"
expected results:
• collection details should be updated and you should display again exactly what you displayed right before clicking on "edit collection", i.e. the 3 links: "Moderate Collection | Edit Collection | Disown/Delete Collection"
actual results:
• the entire page is reloaded (bad)
• the list is not sorted alphabetically anymore (bad)

Re: collection editing
We've made it now so that the page remembers your sorting options after submitting an edit. The page still reloads (which is necessary to complete the sorting, in case you've renamed your collection). Also, it doesn't auto-expand to the edited collection, but that we deemed too complicated a fix for now.

you could check whether or not the collection was renamed and reload the page only if truempowell wrote:The page still reloads (which is necessary to complete the sorting, in case you've renamed your collection).
you could add anchors to each collection, so that when a collection is expanded you add "...#collectionname" to the URL and then when the page reloads, you can expand the collection that was exanded before.mpowell wrote:it doesn't auto-expand to the edited collection, but that we deemed too complicated a fix for now.
Not that these 2 fixes are of vital importance, but I just wanted to share these basic ideas just for the improbable case that they turn out to be of any help.
