Abstract
We configure the asset publisher to order the contents by a structure text field. We export the site. Once the site is being imported, the order configuration gets lost and the asset publisher will be ordered by the content title.

Reproduction

1. Navigate to Site Administration -> Content
2. Click Manage Structures
3. Add a Structure, placed a text field on the plane, and sav the structure titled "struct"
4. Add a new Web Content Article from this structure
5. Assign a blank template to it
6. Place an Asset Publisher on the page
7. Click the configuration of the portlet
8. Under the Asset Selection tab, in the Asset Type section select Web Content Article
9. Select "struct" as Web Content Article Subtype
10. In the Ordering and Grouping section select Order by Text
11. Leave the rest of the field as the default
12. Export the pages with the default settings
13. Create a new Community Site with the default settings
14. Import the lar file and leave all the settings default (Mirror)
15. Navigate to the destination page

Issue: Observe that the Asset Publisher portlet loses its ordering configuration. If you add a new structure, it will be ordered by its title

Expected: The order configuration should persist through the export-imports.

Staging scenario

1. Create a site
2. Navigate to Site Administration -> Content
3. Click Manage Structures
4. Add a Structure, placed a text field on the plane, and sav the structure titled "struct"
5. Add a new Web Content Article from this structure
6. Assign a blank template to it
7. Turn on staging
8. Place an Asset Publisher on the page
9. Click the configuration of the portlet
10. Under the Asset Selection tab, in the Asset Type section select Web Content Article
11. Select "struct" as Web Content Article Subtype
12. In the Ordering and Grouping section select Order by Text
13. Leave the rest of the field as the default
14. Publish

Issue: Observe that the Asset Publisher portlet's preferences refer to the strucure in the staging group

Expected: The order configuration refer to the structure in the live group.
