I noticed that option, too. It only enables sorting in the backend but 
that does not affect the frontend. I want to have an option that works 
like this(which I tested in my local system already):
There could be the option "manually" in the "Sort by" switch in the 
plugin. If you set the selectbox to that option, the news are ordered by 
the column "sorting", which is used to allow sorting in the backend. By 
now you can only order your news by "given date", "title", "created" and 
"last edited".
This is not an adequate solution because the column "sorting" only works 
well for one sysfolder. As soon as you want to display news records from 
two different sysfolders, you can't them among each other. I'm working 
on that problem right now.
