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.
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.
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.
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.
