Are you using the "DataTables plug-in for the jQuery?"Jesper– Jesper2021-10-15 12:12:12 +00:00Commented Oct 15, 2021 at 12:12

@Jesper yes I'm using. When I convert the date column to the format I want, it doesn't work in sorting.Emre Şimşek– Emre Şimşek2021-10-15 12:19:30 +00:00Commented Oct 15, 2021 at 12:19

1.) Do you have the moment script linked to your HTML?
IF not be sure to add the following in the <head> tag of your html <script src="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/moment.js/2.29.1/moment.min.js" referrerpolicy="no-referrer"></script>
IF so. You can do the following.
Instead of rendering it in columnDefs, you can actually reformat the date in the column initialization like so:
moment.suppressDeprecationWarnings = true;
var dataSet = [
{
"Something" : "Something1",
"Date" : "01/12/2021"
}
]
$(document).ready(function() {
$('#example').DataTable( {
data: dataSet,
columns: [
{ "data": "Something" },
{ "data": "Date",
render: function(data, type, row) { //render function to format the date values from my AJAX
if (type === "sort" || type === "type") {
return data;
}
return moment(data).format("DD.MM.YYYY HH:mm");
}
}
]
} );
} );<!DOCTYPE html>
