Small Bugs:

1. The column titles are clickable and tell it's for sorting, but clicking just reloads with old sort
2. Sorting by default is on Title, but that's not displayed in the sorting dropdown by default, so it's unclear imho

UX Feedbacks:

1. "Sort Table By:" drop down should probably be just "Sort By:". Actually as titles are links and Title has the arrow, we really don't need the sorting drop-downs imho. And if yes, they should be hidden in search tools imho. (in another PR we should move the # per page with pagination at bottom, which would clean up a lot the things above the header). Then it could be possible to move the "Search" and Search tools to the right, leaving main focus to the content itself by default and putting the search tools to where they belong (right) as it's not the main topic of that page like in google, but the content is :-).
2. Search tools arrow could toggle up/down when it's open or closed
3. Search tools color could stay blue also when closed to indicate that there is a filtering active and hidden.
4. Just an Idea: The filtering section at top could be styled like a real (not isis-bad-styled) fieldset, or like a real tab (here again not isis-bad-styled) with the tip encompassing the search tools button ?
5. Differnt topic/PR: I think we discussed this already: Now that we have enough space, category could go back into its own column and author alias on same line as author.
6. In tablet and mobile phone widths, the search and search tools completely disapear, which actually is VERY nice and clean looking too. Wondering if "Search" should not just be a toolbar button which makes appear the simple search...
7. get rid of "Filter:" (that's a suggestion from @krileon ) (or if a fieldset, it could be "Search tools" title for fieldset)

• The 'Sort by' dropdown should stay, as it contains ordering options that are not in the columns, like order by featured or category.
• The 'Sort by' select should be smaller.
• The ASC/DESC select should be way smaller and could possibly be replaced by a toggle switch using the arrow up/down icons, like:

"5. Different topic/PR: I think we discussed this already: Now that we have enough space, category could go back into its own column and author alias on same line as author."
Keep in mind that it still needs to look good at about 980px wide (which is the toggle point for tablet vs desktop)
