Question

is it possible to insert a row into tablesorter that would always appear first no matter how you sort it, and would have its own custom css settings for that one row?

Thank you 🙂

Answer 1

Yes, that’s very simple – tablesorter won’t sort anything within the <thead>:

<table>
  <thead>
    <tr><th>Column Head 1</th><th>Column Head 2</th></tr>
    <tr><td>Unsortable  1</td><td>Unsortable  2</td></tr>
  </thead>
  <tbody>
    <!-- sortable rows here -->
  </tbody>
</table>

As far as CSS goes, either give the “special” row a separate class, or use thead tr:last-child.
