Sorting: Excluding a column

[ricardozea]

Hello,

Not if this is doable right now, but I read the documentation and couldn't find find anything related to this case.

My issue right now is that I would like to exclude a column from sorting.

The thing is that I have a column that holds thumbnails, just small preview images of the files they correspond to, so "sorting by thumbnail"... the sorting concept doesn't apply in this case.

Is there a data- attribute to "exclude" a column from sorting?

EDIT--

I used data-ignore on the header but it didn't work.

I used it like this:

<thead>
  <tr>
    <th data-ignore="true">Thumbnail</th>
  </tr>
  <tr>
    <th>...</th>
  </tr>
<thead>

Thanks.

rather use data-sort-ignore="true"

Ha! It worked great, thanks!

You think you could add this to the documentation in the Data Attribute Configuration section?

Just saying, since this feature is not documented yet and also thinking about others that may have the same issue.

Just twitted this solution as well.

Thanks again!
