I recently watched the following video concerning an automatic wheat farm where water rushes harvested wheat down a channel along with seeds but the wheat is supposed to be picked up by two hoppers into an item sorter and stored in a chest while the seeds flow through a hole and don’t get collected by the hopper/item sorter. However, when I build it (albeit in Bedrock, but should that change it?) the wheat is not collected by the hoppers and joins the seeds in flowing past them. Is there something that could be wrong?
You should search out item sorters specifically for Bedrock, I don't know what differences might affect item sorters in particular but as I understand things redstone circuits are one of the areas where Bedrock and Java differ the most.
Looking at the second attached picturer, I can see that you have dirt blocks above the hoppers. This actually blocks the hoppers from picking up any items. Try removing the water stream sources, and placing a second hopper pointing directly into the lower ones, then replacing your water stream sources. They should at least be picking up items at that point in time.
Edit:
I guess that hoppers are allowed to pick up items if they are path blocks, so not sure what's going on, to be honest. I know that most sorters do work on bedrock or at least they used to. I admit that I haven't really played much Minecraft now for at least several major versions, mainly because the game is broken on console, and not getting any better.
I was able to get the item sorter working by moving the hoppers out away from the center a block each. It seems the wheat was just flying over, but now it is going in. So that’s good. But I’ve run into another problem. I’ve been giving the villager seeds to replant the farm, but he isn’t doing it. I can’t figure out why that’s not working now.

Just testing.

Is there a village nearby? If so that is your problem. The villager will not harvest or plant wheat outside of the village radius.
Make sure the villager is a farmer. He must have a composter nearby.
