I think I didn't explain myself well enough. My problem is not with how it
sorts or with any weirdness of the field I'm sorting on but just that it
gives no result with any field or variable used as the search field. The
search only gives me results if I hard code a number in the search.
So this give me no result:
<$list
filter="[lessthan:birth[{{!!year}}]greaterthan:death[{{!!year}}]tag[People]]">
But this gives me the expected results:
<$list filter="[lessthan:birth[1950]greaterthan:death[1950]tag[People]]">
I have a field named "year" with just a 4 digit number
