Date Sorting

SimonPrice3376

I am trying to sort based on the example here https://datatables.net/plug-ins/sorting/, and have my example at https://jsfiddle.net/SimonPrice/ndtgtshq/3/.

the problem that I am having that it just isn't working.

I would be grateful to know how I can sort on any \ all of the date fields please.

Any and all help very much appreciated

Hi,

None of your date / time columns are in the format 'DD, MM, YYYY' that you specify in the code.

You need to tell the plug-in what format to expect. Moment's documentation contains the formatting options it supports).

ah, I was under the impression that it wanted to know the formats of the day month and year, as to how many 01, vs, 1, vs 1st, rather than the actual formatting DD/MM/YYYY

thank you
