I'd like to save the sorting I apply to a table in the Wiki; is this possible?
This is a very old question ... but it still came up when I was searching. Yes, Confluence tables now (by default) support column sorting by the reader ... but sometimes (as the author) you want to permanently save the table pre-sorted so that it always comes up a certain way.
It is possible to do this if you have access to a text editor that will let you replace newline and tab characters (regular-expressions). I have a Mac, and I opened a Unix terminal and used sed for this purpose.
sed -e $'s/\t/|/g' -e 's/^/|/' ttt.txt
Hey Mason,
I would say, that this is possible by writing a plugin:
Would you like this bahaviour for all tables or just selected ones?

Bummer, that doesn't really help. Since I have to edit the table in the Editor, I really need sorting in there, if anywhere...

I don't think so, but using the Table-plus macro you can specify an auto sort column so that it always initially shows with that column sorted ascending or descending.

Table plus sorts auto-number rows like:
1
10
100
101
102
instead of
1
2
3
4
....
How do I enforce the latter?
