Confluence page property report macro: sort function seems to be broken

XMLWordPrintable

      I created some blueprints to put protocols of our company into cunfluence.
      There is different meta data for each blueprint but "datum" is included in every blueprint to save the date of the meeting in the format YYYY-MM-DD

      Then I created a Page that includes all protocols
      The output is almost OK, all protocols are shown but the parameter "sort by" (that was set to "datum") does not have any effects. The output is not sorted.

      When I click on the page propery report table column title "Datum" the table gets sorted as it should be.

      The initial sorting seems to be broken for the page property macro report

            Hi everyone

            Please note that we will have a fix for this in an upcoming release. The Page Property Report macro will now sort using a “natural” sorting algorithm. This will display results in alphanumerical order (e.g. 1, 2, 11), rather than the pure alphabetical order (e.g. 1, 11, 2) that was used previously.

            If you experience missing results it may be because Confluence limits the number of results to 500 most recently updated pages before the sorting is applied. We are also looking into the page limit; we know that there are performance impacts in removing this limit. Please follow the related ticket if this affects your team: CONFSERVER-37890

            I have the same issue, cloud version as of October 3, 2018. The sort feature in the Page Properties Report macro does not sort the result correctly., However, manually clicking the header in the resulting page property report sorts as it should.

            Please see Capture.PNG above - we're experiencing the same issue even though the Page Properties macro is set up correctly (see PageProperties.png)
