I created this Task as "Resolved" and it will be probably created with the following feed, in this order:

• valerio.bozzolan closed this task as Resolved.Wed, May 8, 10:13 AM
• valerio.bozzolan triaged this task as High priority.
• valerio.bozzolan created this task.

Here, reproduced:

Instead, this is the expected feed order:

• valerio.bozzolan created this task.
• valerio.bozzolan closed this task as Resolved.Wed, May 8, 10:13 AM
• valerio.bozzolan triaged this task as High priority.

Troubleshooting

It seems the "created this task" phrase comes from the ManiphestTransactionEditor method getCreateObjectTitle():

https://we.phorge.it/source/phorge/browse/master/src/applications/maniphest/editor/ManiphestTransactionEditor.php;af300016b678fd0694a4ecde00de167677acff80$30

That seems in use by PhabricatorCoreCreateTransaction method getTitle():

https://we.phorge.it/source/phorge/browse/master/src/applications/transactions/xaction/PhabricatorCoreCreateTransaction.php;af300016b678fd0694a4ecde00de167677acff80$18

Note that the above class inherits this default getActionStrength() returning null:

https://we.phorge.it/source/phorge/browse/master/src/applications/transactions/storage/PhabricatorModularTransactionType.php;af300016b678fd0694a4ecde00de167677acff80$78-80

Also some probably relevant code:

• ManiphestTaskTitleTransaction (that seems not in use here for this specific bug report):
  • https://we.phorge.it/source/phorge/browse/master/src/applications/maniphest/xaction/ManiphestTaskTitleTransaction.php;af300016b678fd0694a4ecde00de167677acff80$17
  • See the getActionStrength() = 140.
• ManiphestTaskStatusTransaction

  • See the getActionStrength() = 130.

Proposal n. 1

So, probably, PhabricatorCoreCreateTransaction should have a getActionStrength() of 140.

Just like ManiphestTaskTitleTransaction or similar ones.

Example:

diff --git a/src/applications/transactions/xaction/PhabricatorCoreCreateTransaction.php b/src/applications/transactions/xaction/PhabricatorCoreCreateTransaction.php
index 0c8c337193..03255afbc6 100644
--- a/src/applications/transactions/xaction/PhabricatorCoreCreateTransaction.php
+++ b/src/applications/transactions/xaction/PhabricatorCoreCreateTransaction.php
@@ -27,4 +27,8 @@ final class PhabricatorCoreCreateTransaction
     return $editor->getCreateObjectTitleForFeed($author, $object);
   }
 
+  public function getActionStrength() {
+    return 140;
+  }
+
 }

✅ This approach was tested and seems to work.

It improves the situation in: Maniphest, Phriction.

It has no negative impact on these that seem already OK: Calendar, Dashboard, Dashboard Panel, Diffusion, Macro, Paste, Ponder, Project, Pholio.

It has no positive impact on these that seem still in the wrong order: Differential.
