Hi,

checkbox is always deselected when you load configuration, that has no effect on functionality.

For the second problem try removing : from field labels, could be this is treated as special character.

Judging by the look of your dropdown you use select2, chosen or similar javascript that modifies selectboxes, try deactivating that, you might be hitting a bug in that script.

Your configurations seems ok - if you have the latest seblod 3.8.1, there is "Article Order By" that you can use as en example. Check if that one shows ok, if not there is something on your system that is altering an output (javascript or system plugin, most often from template providers..)
