We're Moving to a New Support Platform – Starting June 1st!

We’re excited to let you know that starting June 1st, we’ll be transitioning to a new support system that will be available directly on our product websites – Amelia, wpDataTables, and Report Builder. In fact, the new support platform is already live for Amelia and wpDataTables, and we encourage you to reach out to us there.

You'll always be able to reach us through a widget in the bottom right corner of each website, where you can ask questions, report issues, or simply get assistance.

While we still do not offer live support, a new advanced, AI-powered assistant, trained on our documentation, use cases, and real conversations with our team, is there to help with basic to intermediate questions in no time.

We're doing our best to make this transition smooth and hassle-free. After June 1st, this current support website will redirect you to the new "Contact Us" pages on our product sites.

Thanks for your continued support and trust – we’re excited to bring you an even better support experience!

Table Sorting by Date on Client - doesn't sort
Closed

    Corky started the conversation

    When I enable sorting on the Client, and attempt to sort a table on a date field, it doesn't work in some browsers/OSes.

    Configuration: 
    MySQL table,
    "Allow sorting for the table" - on,
    "Enable server side processing" - Off, 

    Field: 'Date' type of field, 
    Field: "Allow sorting for this column" - on,
    Field: "Sort table by this column on load" - on

    Variations:
    Does not work on any iOS browser (Safari, Chrome, Firefox), nor on Firefox on any of iOS, Windows, Android, Mac.
    DOES work on IE11 & Chrome for both Win & Mac. 

    Also, if "Enable server side processing" is "On" - then date sorting works, but, of course, is very slow.

    Thanks!
    Corky.

    Bogdan,

    The Client side date sorting works on the default included browsers for Samsung Galaxy S5 & also for Kindle Fire. It does not work for the Firefox browser for the Galaxy S5.

    Best Regards.

    Hi Corky,

    As a workaround can you enable Server-side processing for that table until we found fix for this bug? If we resolve it, we'll include it in the next release 2.0.2.

    Yes. 

    We have enabled Server-side processing, and it does pretty good for now. We look forward hopefully to 2.0.2, as the  Server-side processing also slows down the "Search" which our users make use of more than the filter.

    Thanks!
