After changing the Title column heading to a different name in 'Page properties report' Macro.
User cannot sort using the different name that he/she have changed. User has to enter "title" to sort. This will confused the user as they do not know they have to use "title" to sort even after they have changed the title name.
Below are the steps to reproduce this:
1. Login to Confluence
2. Go to a Space page
3. Create a new page within the Space
4. In the editor, choose Insert > Other Macros > Page Properties
5. In the macro body create a two column table and remove the header row.
6. In the left column list your 'keys' - these will be the column headings in your report table.
7. In the right column list the value for each key - these will populate the rows in your report table.
8. Add a label to your page - you will need to specify this label in the page properties report macro.
9.Save your page.
Do this process for a few subsequent new pages.
After that, go to a existing page and choose Insert > Other Macros > Page Properties Report
Input the string "Name" into "Title column heading".
Input "Name" in "Sort by""
Current result : It does not sort after Title have been changed to Name.
Expected result : It should sort after Title have been changed to Name.

That is a really nasty issue, at least for non English setups like ours. In fact I did try to use the name of the first column for sorting, but in our confluence this column is named "Überschrift" due to the translation. To even try with the English title "title" didn't cross my mind
At least, due to google (unfortunately not due to reporting and fixing issues here) I got it fixed and sorted now. Thanks @reporter / Der Lun!
