Remember to cover the basics, that is, what you expected to happen and
what in fact did happen. You don't know how to make a good report? See
https://orgmode.org/manual/Feedback.html#Feedback
Your bug report will be posted to the Org mailing list.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
I am trying to sort my agenda by a number of variables, but it seems
that todo-state-down is not applied if added after priority-down.
Instead it seems as if Priority first is applied, then the date the
item is scheduled.
Repro:
1. Set
org-agenda-sorting-strategy
'((agenda priority-down todo-state-down)
(todo priority-down todo-state-down effort-up category-keep scheduled-up)
(tags priority-down todo-state-down effort-up category-keep)
(search category-keep))
2. Set
org-todo-keywords '(
(sequence "TODO(t!)" "NEXT(n!)" "WAIT(w!)" "|" "DONE(d!)" "CANC(c!)" "DUPE(D!)")
)
3. Have three todos scheduled:
* TODO [#C] Test
SCHEDULED: <2023-03-16 Thu>
* NEXT [#C] Test
SCHEDULED: <2023-03-15 Wed>
* WAIT [#C] Test
SCHEDULED: <2023-03-17 Fri>
4. Go to agenda.
I expect to see items in the following order, since they are the same priority.
WAIT C Test
NEXT C Test
TODO C Test
But I see:
NEXT C Test
TODO C Test
WAIT C Test
It seems the sorting is based on the scheduled time - NOT the todo state
(since they are the same priority).
I've checked various things and priority, habit, all other
org-agenda-sorting-strategy variables sort ok if indepdendently applied.
I am only able to reproduce this issuey when I have todo-state-down
AFTER priority-down in org-agenda-sorting-strategies.
Any help appreciated.
Regards,
Jonas

Confirmed.
Yet another agenda madness I have no clue about.
`org-agenda-get-scheduled' sets the priority as
'priority (if habitp (org-habit-get-priority habitp)
(+ 99 diff (org-get-priority item)))
where diff is the number of overdue days for a given entry.
Further,
`org-agenda-get-deadlines' has
'priority
;; Adjust priority to today reminders about deadlines.
;; Overdue deadlines get the highest priority
;; increase, then imminent deadlines and eventually
;; more distant deadlines.
(let ((adjust (if today? (- diff) 0)))
(+ adjust (org-get-priority item)))
`org-agenda-get-todos' has
priority (1+ (org-get-priority txt)))
All these dates back to the initial Org release.
From what I am seeing, these awkward priority adjustments are hard-coded
for fine-tune agenda sorting in some (unknown) scenarios.
Changing them will likely break existing sorting.
To fix this, we should carefully check what will happen if we set the
agenda priority to be the actual user-defined priority. And then fix the
sorting back somehow.

perhaps we could have 2 names: one for the priority cookie setting and
one for whatever the agenda does.

This is a good idea. Thanks!

Subject: [PATCH] org-agenda: Rename sorting "priority" to "urgency"
* lisp/org-habit.el (org-habit-get-priority): Rename to
`org-habit-get-urgency'.
* lisp/org-compat.el (org-habit-get-priority): Obsolete the old name.
* lisp/org-agenda.el (org-agenda-sorting-strategy):
* lisp/org-agenda.el (org-search-view):
(org-agenda-get-todos):
(org-agenda-get-timestamps):
(org-agenda-get-progress):
(org-agenda-get-deadlines):
(org-agenda-get-scheduled):
(org-agenda-get-blocks):
(org-entries-lessp): Alter priority-up and priority-down sorting
strategies to only sort by actual priority. Rename the previous
composite sorting rank to urgency, corresponding to the new urgency-up
and urgency-down sorting strategies. Store the new rank in 'urgency
text property. Update the docstrings accordingly. Use `urgency-down'
in place of `priority-down' in the default sorting strategy.
(org-set-sorting-strategy): Use `urgency-down' in place of
`priority-down'.
* etc/ORG-NEWS ("Priority" used to sort items in agenda is renamed to
"urgency"): Document the change.
* doc/org-manual.org (Sorting of agenda items): Update manual using
"urgency" term in place of confusing "priority".
Thanks to Samuel Wales for the idea how to fix the inconsistency.

thank you for that. surely now fewer users will be confused.
i find that when 2 things are being conflated, whether in software or
in anything else, it is useful to change the name of both of them for
maximum clarity, future git searches, etc.
thus, perhaps i would suggest somthign like this slight tweak instead.
priority-cookie-up
priority-cookie-and-planning-urgency-up
if not too verbose. reasoning: urgency is occasionally considered
orthogonal to priority in some philosophies, and some users have
:urgent: tags. so this might eliminate slightly more confusion in
principle.

[feel free to ignore those suggestions as surely there are better
alterntives, and urgency is still good.]

I do not like the idea of changing both the names. The current change
will ensure that existing uses of "priority-up"/"priority-down" sorting
strategies won't be affected too much. Forcing every Org user who
customized agenda sorting to change the variable values is not
acceptable.
Note that the patch, despite changing the actual meaning of
priority-up/down, makes it more conforming with
`org-agenda-sorting-strategy' docstring. So, this change is, in fact,
safe.

I am neutral wrt "urgency" term. We can use some other.
I do not like the verbosity. Even something like
"priority-and-urgency-up/down" sounds awkward, IMHO.

it is all ok with me, but not everybody has personal test cases for
sorting sequence, and soembvody might get bitten by a subtle change
like this which pop up every once in a while. thus the conflated
thing -> 2 names. the old one could be deprecated or so, i was
thinking. i get your points though and didn't realize about the
docstroing. i have no strong opinion on this; just wanted the idea of
disambiguating out there. as long as 2 things are not conflated
that's good.

What you are describing is https://xkcd.com/1172/
We have no obligation to preserve backwards compatibility for people
relying on bugs.
Since the documentation previously told users that
priority-up/priority-down sort by priority, we have no obligation to
care about the fact that Org did not behave as described.
We just need to preserve the default agenda behaviour described in the
manual, which my patch does.

i was not intending to talk about that xkcd. there has been confusion
about 2 definitions of priority, and your urgent will likely help. if
the docs referred to priority cookies, your argument is good. i did
not think every reference did incl code.

Well. I am pretty sure that the docstring in org-agenda was talking
about agenda-specific priorities. However, it was against Org's
terminology even 15 years ago - the earliest time I can track the
discussed docstring and manual entry in Git history. Now and earlier,
Org manual introduced priorities as [#A]-[#C] basically everywhere with
a single exception: when talking about agenda default sorting
"Within each category, items are sorted by priority
(@pxref{Priorities}), which is composed of the base priority (2000 for
priority @samp{A}, 1000 for @samp{B}, and 0 for @samp{C}), plus
additional increments for overdue scheduled or deadline items."
Notably, no reference has been ever made to this statement in the manual
from `org-agenda-sorting-strategy' docstring.
So, the terminology here has been confusing since forever and the only
clue about agenda special treatment of "priority" term has been in the
manual, not even linked to `org-agenda-sorting-strategy',- only to the
"default order" of agenda sorting.
My patch does not affect the default agenda sorting, so the previous
manual's claim is not contradicted. My commit also solves the
terminology confusion. Thus, I observe no regression and see not why we
should not be free to adjust how agenda treats 'priority-up/down in
`org-agenda-sorting-strategy'.
