#### Version 1.23.2.4656
How come the number of movies counted by Plex changes shifting from “Title sort” to “Day added”?

Because the item number in the “Title” sorting is including [Collections](https://support.plex.tv/articles/201273953-collections/).
Whereas “Date added” doesn’t give a sensible way to include collections.
You can switch off the display of collections “inline” in the movie list, by editing your library and setting Collections to “Disabled”.
(No, this doesn’t switch off Collections in general.)
