Sorting a search on a Formula (Text) field with <span>
For example, I created an item search with a Formula (Text) field that uses the formula:
'<span>' || {internalid} || '</span>'
I also have the primary sort field set to the Formula (Text) field.
When I run the search, assuming the criteria reduces the total results to 50 or less (1 page), then the results are sorted as expected.
If there are multiple pages of results, all of them are blank and say No Results (even though the total is correct):
Why am I unable to sort the column when more than 50 results are present?
