Sorting issues in confluence

Tim Oldendorf

I have a table that is created on a confluence page.

One of the columns we have priorities of projects listed in the table. For example 1a,1b,1c,1d,1e,2a,2b So it needs to be sorted numerically then alphabetically.

So when I click the "Priority" column to sort by it doesn't sort them like you see above. it has them out of order. For example I see 1b,1c,1e,1a,1d,2b,2a - so it is only sorting them numerically.

Any ideas?

A comment on our report of the issue indicates it was fixed, but I tried on Confluence 6.9.0 and the sorting in tables hasn't been "sorted". I updated the issue with that version. Please do comment or vote on the report to communicate with the development team: Tables are sorted incorrectly

I am having the same problem I am on Confluence 6.4.2 and I created a table with functionality vs release, with emoticon in the column when it is in the release and n/a if it isn't in any release. It sorts all the n/a rows at the top but none of my columns are grouped by their emoticon. I will re-do again, this is the second time already. The first design I had all the features and had one column for release and entered either 4.7.3 or 4.7.5 or n/a and it still wouldn't sort .

I found a plugin that seems to be doing the trick for me. It is called Table Enhancer for Confluence. plus it's free. I am on 6.4.3.

Here is a link to the marketplace listing https://marketplace.atlassian.com/apps/1211609/table-enhancer-for-confluence?hosting=server&tab=overview

It might work for your use-case as well

Hi Tim: Thanks, do I need to get our Confluence admin to install this? We are a pretty big IT shop and not sure how long it will take to get it installed. It does look like it addresses the problem though. BTW, I just decided not to be fancy, and just use x's instead, so that is my workaround.
