Question

So I know you can set the default sort order of specific columns with tablesorter. This is a bit different.

If you click any non-sorted column, the first sort is always ^ (asc). I want the first click to be V (desc).

Any idea what this option would be in the API? I can’t seem to find it.

Looks like a dup.

<script type="text/javascript">
    $(document).ready(function() 
    { 
      $("#theTable").tablesorter({ 
        sortInitialOrder: 'desc',
        sortList: [[3,1]] // etc.

       }); 
    } 
    ); 
</script>
