Hi – if people try to sort this by the final column and go largest to smallest, the largest number 11.744 doesn’t appear at the top where it should be instead slots in between 2.04 and 1.932 (alongside another gap on the 11s bracket).

Any idea why as it makes it difficult for people to filter otherwise?

Hi,

thanks for your post, and sorry for the trouble.

The reason for this are the entry with the “?” value. These turn the sorting in that column from number to text sorting, which causes the changed behavior that you are seeing.

Can you maybe replace these “?” with numbers or also leave them empty? If not, you would have to use an approach like https://wordpress.org/support/topic/sorting-function-with-images/ and https://wordpress.org/support/topic/consolidating-columns-without-changing-sorting-options/

Regards,
Tobias

Thanks – I’ll leave it blank and put a note below to explain why there is no data for those two
