Description

When using quey.where with isGreaterThan and startAfterDocument, query is broken.

I've tested all where filters :

• [isNotEqualTo, greaterThan, lowerThan, whereNotIn, isGreaterThanOrEqualTo, isLessThanOrEqualTo, isNull] are broken.
• [isEqualTo, whereIn] works.

Reproducing the issue

Demo project https://github.com/EArminjon/firestore-issue-query

1. Run app
2. Click on "Fetch with game.dates.from"
3. See no issue
4. Click again on "Fetch with game.dates.from"
5. See the issue

Additional context and comments

My firestore :

Enregistrement.2025-05-25.161338.mp4

[EArminjon]

I saw that by addind extra orderBy (#13289) it can 'fix' the issue :

if (offset is DocumentSnapshot) {
  query = query.orderBy('game.dates.from').startAfterDocument(offset);
}

But, I don't understand why we need to add extra orderBy (which we don't want) to fix Firestore.

Hi @EArminjon, while reviewing the documentation, I noticed that all the query cursor examples are used in combination with the orderBy clause. This gave me the impression that it's required for correct usage.
I believe this could be a documentation issue, as the requirement to use orderBy with cursors isn't explicitly stated.

Agreed, documentation issue, how can we report that to them ?
