[Plugin: WP-Table Reloaded] Custom Sorting Command

Hi,

there might have been some miscommunication in my tweet leading to this post: For this, a “Custom Command” is not enough unfortunately. Instead, you will need to call a custom DataTables API function via some JavaScript code, which you can find at http://datatables.net/plug-ins/api#fnSortNeutral You could for example add a button to your page and execute that code when the button is clicked.

The “Custom Command” that I mentioned was targeted at being able to exclude columns from being sortable. That is possible by adding

"aoColumnDefs": [ { "bSortable": false, "aTargets": [ 0, 2, 3 ] } ]

to the “Custom Commands” textfield in the “DataTables JavaScript features” section on the “Plugin Options” screen of WP-Table Reloaded.
This example would make columns 1, 3, and 4 non-sortable (counting starts with 0).
