I posted a new sequence which is shorter and skips many steps of the ones that I posted here earlier.

    New attempt to hunt this down in a shorter sequence:

    https://share.cleanshot.com/yBSWPPcdVfqyjF1nf1Zj

    1. Create new profile
    2. Set new profile to default
    3. Set Tabs on the side
    4. Pin multiple tabs (I pinned 5)
    5. Save the tabs as a new tab group
    6. Quit Orion
    7. Open Orion
      Pinned tabs are still in right order
    8. Reset Orion (All Time, All Settings)
    9. Quit Orion
    10. Set Tabs on the Side
      Pinned tabs still in right order
    11. Quit Orion
      Tabs not in correct order anymore.

    Every restart of Orion hereafter the pinned tabs are in a different position.

    Note that the fact that I changed a pinned tab for another one (Volkskrant) is not causing the problem because I tested this without doing this and it still happens.

    Maybe that Resetting and restarting Orion afterwards does something with the storage of Pinned tabs settings in combination with Tabs on the Side?

    Hi @Vlad I saw in the release notes that this is fixed, but I tried to reorder my pinned tabs in my default (synching) profile, which I prefer because it synchs, but pinned tabs still got jumbled after a restart of Orion+ RC.
    Is there something I need to do to have the fix working? Like e.g. one last time create a clean profile?

    I'm on Version 0.99.126.4.1.1-rc (WebKit 618.1.7). Build date Dec 27 2023.
    All extensions deactivated (for this test).

      janpeeters I checked again with Version 0.99.126.4.1.3-rc (WebKit 618.1.7) but the jumbling (is that a word?) still ocurrs.

          I experience the same issue and can reproduce this by:

          1. Create a new profile
          2. Pin at least 4 tabs
          3. Close the window/profile
          4. File > Profiles > Open profile

            @Vlad The problem is not solved completely.
            I tried to reproduce this again, and for a clean profile, the problem is solved.

            But the profile that is synched still doesn't maintain the right order for pinned tabs after a restart.
            It might have something to do with how data is synched?

            I would be willing to test this more by starting over completely by deleting my CloudKit sync data for Orion RC but I have no idea how to do that, instructions are welcome.

              Hi @Vlad I'm sorry to report that in Version 0.99.126.4.1.4-rc (WebKit 619.1.1) the issue still occurs in the default synching profile with multiple tab groups. Reordering the pinned tabs to the right order and restarting the browser still mixes up the order of the pinned tabs.

                It's a persistent one, still jumbled pinned tabs in the default synched profile in
                Version 0.99.126.4.1.5-rc (WebKit 619.1.1)
                Build date Jan 31 2024 on a MacBook Pro (macOS Sonoma 14.2.1 build 23C71)

                Update: I just deleted Orion RC and Orion with AppDelete to make sure everything was gone and reinstalled them after a reboot. This didn't solve the problem. I'd hoped it would also delete the CloudKit data so that I could test with a fully clean synching profile. If you @Vlad Or someone else knows how to delete all CloudKit data for Orion RC on macOS 14.2.1 I will test if the order of pinned tabs stays proper in a really clean setup.

                Otherwise, maybe check if the pinned tabs order is stored together with the pinned tabs data in CloudKit?

                  I tested some more

                  • Deleted all Orion apps on all my Apple devices
                  • Deleted Orion iCloud data from all devices (via the explanation in this article).
                  • Rebooted the platforms
                  • Reinstalled Orion on macOS
                  • Verified that no Windows/tab groups were reintroduced by being synched from iCloud.
                  • Created three new windows with various pinned tabs.

                  After a few restarts of Orion all pinned tabs were mixed up again. Wanted to do this test for a while but didn't know how to start from scratch. So it's probably not due to corrupt iCloud data that pinned tabs get jumbled.

                    I can confirm that I still have this issue

                      Just reporting back

                      Version 0.99.126.4.1.6-rc (WebKit 619.1.1)

                      Still has this issue. Thanks for loking into this.
