Sort button not showing up. I have the new verison and have all permissions set. Stopped working shortly are new Oxide update.

Perhaps you ran the command to toggle the sort button off? Try running the /sortbutton command to see if it returns.

It says toggle enabled and disabled when I put in the command but stull no gui button.

Can you share your config, and which containers are you opening where you expect to see the sort button?

I see you have "check ownership" enabled. Are you the owner of the box you opened? If not, then the sort button will not show (unless the owner of the box is in your clan, since you have clan sharing enabled).
