I think this is a regression in version 11's admin UI (I'm running version 11.5), because I don't remember having such trouble before. If you go to an album's properties, into the sorting section (ex: admin.php?page=album-ALBUM_NUMBER-sort_order), and want to sort in reverse chronological order and then manually adjust the sorting for a few of the pictures, it is now impossible to do so, because the admin UI does not reflect the sorting changes in real time, so you can't drag and drop to reorder based on what was sorted. It's always forward-sorted.

To reproduce:

  1. choose "automatic order"
  2. select any of the reverse sorts (such as "Filename, Z -> A", "Date created, New -> Old", etc.)
  3. click "Save settings"

Result:

  • The album sorting order admin page reloads, but the thumbnails are still shown in the same order as before, forward-sorted.
  • Manually sorting images via drag and drop (and using the "manual sort" setting) will thus make the album manually sorted based on a forward-sorted album, overriding the previously set reverse sort. It is impossible to do a manual sort on a reverse-sorted album because the two approaches fight each other, probably because the admin UI's thumbnails grid does not reflect the latest sorting order.
