Hi Tobias,
Thank you. I cannot figure out how to find your email so why don’t you try me: cathlutz at gmail … and let me know what you need to take a closer look.
Thanks,
CatherineI did — I copied and pasted directly from your post. I’m not sure what happened that the text of the Custom Command changed, but now I just did it again, and the sort option is once again available. BUT, we still have the same issue: in the Purchase Price column, the same 20 or so records are showing up at the bottom, out of order.
Thank you,
CatherineHello,
OK, I have copied the code directly into the Custom Commands field — it should be correct now. And I am able to view the “Table Content” on that same page. The Purchase Price field is still not sorting properly there. And if I preview the Post (through WordPress) using the password-protected link I gave you, the sort function is not available on any of the columns.Thank you for your patience on this.
CatherineOK, I’ve figured out where to enter that code into the Custom Commands field. Now, the “table content” is no longer visible when I go into the Tablepress page. And if I look at the actual post, there is no sort function available? And the current value and purchase price fields are now both completely out of order …
I’m sorry, but do you mean in the Tablepress plug-in or in the Excel spreadsheet? Or elsewhere? Because I’m having a hard time finding the “Custom Commands” function anywhere. Thanks.
Sorry to continue this drama, but when I look at the CSV file in a text editor, I am finding a single space character after ALL the currency values, in both column, not just that handful of values that is not sorting properly … (I could send you a screen shot of it but cannot figure out how to attach file.)
Thank you so much! But, there’s still a problem. It worked to remove the text from the “Current Value” column, which is now sorting properly in both directions. However, in the “Purchase Price” column, there are a handful of entries, about 20, which do not sort in the right order. They end up at the bottom of the list regardless of whether the sort is done lowest to highest or highest to lowest. These sort properly in Excel, and I cannot see any difference in how the cells are formatted.
Thank you again!
CatherineHi, thank you so much for your response and sorry for the incorrect link. Try this:
https://www.aspenjournalism.org/2018/12/17/draft-housing-table-2/
and enter the password “sorthelp” to access. I hope that works, I wasn’t sure how best to give you access without publishing publicly. Thank you!
