{| class="wikitable filterable"
|+
!Heading 1
...

Adding the "filterable" class in wikitext

Sortierung von speziellen Datenformaten

If a column should consider special data types for sorting (e.g., date, number), you can add a class attribute 'in the header cell of that column. Please note that a header cell is always defined with a exclamation mark ("!").

{| class="wikitable filterable"
|+
! class="number" |Col A
|-
|1
|-
|2
|-
|30
|-
|11
|-
|5
|}

Output:

Col A
1
2
30
11
5

Possible values are:

• string
• integer
• number
• date

Filtering table columns

The special filter layout of a table is only applied in view mode.

To filter the values in the table, click on the header of the column to filter and select "Filter" from the dropdown menu. In the input field that opens, type in the filter text.
