@tmwsiy11 - When I see the light gray bar at the top of your screenshot, this suggests that you are using the Miro desktop app. If you are, I would suggest that you try resetting the application data:

If you are using a browser, I would suggest that you try:

1. Clearing your cache
2. Signing out and back in
3. Disabling all browser extensions (using an Incognito/private browser window usually accomplishes this).

@tmwsiy11 - Update: I think I found the only scenario in which the “Sort by” filter is hidden (and which cannot be confirmed by your screenshot, as it is only a partial screenshot): When on the “Recent boards” page, the Sort by filter is hidden - this is likely due to the view amalgamating boards from multiple teams; a view that loses the context of the board’s status (last opened when, by who, created by who (a security consideration when viewing a board from a team that you are not a member of...)):

@tmwsiy11 - Do let me know if this still happens to you, even when not on the “Recent boards” page.
