 * Hi,
 * thanks for your question, and sorry for the trouble.
 * TablePress uses the latest version of DataTables, 1.10.15.
 * Here however, the problem is that the custom “date-eu” algorithm only supports
   columns where ALL cells have a correctly formatted date.
 * Regards,
    Tobias

 * Hi,
 * you would have to modify the JavaScript code in the tablepress-datatables-sorting-
   plugins/jquery.datatables.sorting-plugins.js file (and in the minified version).
 * But have you tested if you actually need the Extension? The new version of DataTables
   should be able to sort the dd.mm.yyyy date format directly, without the Extension.
 * Regards,
    Tobias
