 * Hi and thanks for this plugin.
 * I need help for the statistic tables on my website. As you can see on the picture
   link below, there is a problem when I want to sort the datas (on the picture,
   i take the example for the year 2016) : the highest values are not on the top
   of the table…

 * Hello [@devemyhg](https://wordpress.org/support/users/devemyhg/)
    From Table’s
   Column settings you have to make the data type as number then the sorting will
   work fine.
 * Thanks

 * Thanks for your answer but I already selected “Numeric value” as Data type in
   Table Column Settings. It seems that the first figure is more important than 
   the whole number for the sorting…
