When does it revert ? I have seen this happen, we have done some work in the past try to store the details of selections between sessions but I’m not sure if you are having an issue where it isn’t saving at all. Since this is a javascript issue, what browser are you using ?

Yeah, it has to do with the datatables jquery library and how its session data is stored in the database. I have noticed it behaving rather intermittent myself but sometimes it works and so I haven’t delved deeper.
