You do not say what the differences are between what you see and what is shown on wiki page DiredSortMenu. That page shows a popup menu initiated via `S-mouse-2' (in Dired). You used `M-x dired-sort-dialogue' instead, which does not provide submenu= =20 Configuration and provides a `Reverse' checkbox instead of a `Reversed Sort By' submenu. If this is the difference you are seeing then it is expected. [The menu from menu-bar menu `Immediate > Sort By' (or `Dir > Sort By' if y= ou use Dired+) is essentially the same as the `S-mouse-2' popup menu.]
