Sorting date with month as string?

xAkademiks

My dates in the table are displayed in this fashion "December 8, 2019". Can someone help me with a way to sort these by date instead of by the string?

Nevermind, I actually found a really quick fix. I'll leave it here incase someone else needs it.

All I did was add a span before the text that is hidden and set it's value to that of a unix timestamp.

<td><span hidden><?= $nextEventTimestamp ?></span> <?= Date::convertToFormattedDate($nextEventTimestamp); ?></td>
