Sorting

Not sure if this is an issue you are aware of or if there is a way to do that that I don't see.
I have a group folder and in the folder I have connections (which do have sub-connections) in addition I have another folder (created as a folder in the first folder I mentioned).

The problem is I am trying to get that folder to be displayed first before the connections. I have tried setting the sort priority to 100 for the folder with no change. I also tried setting the sort priority of the contents to 100. And I have tried setting sort priority of both the folder and the contents to 100. All with no change
