Topic: Showing column sort direction
dmpneuro premium asked 6 years ago
DataTables (without MDB) can show you the direction that a column is sorted (see: https://datatables.net/examples/styling/order-column.html). The up and down icon arrows change to correctly reflect the column sort order.
With MDB, all I see is a font-awesome icon of both up and down arrows that never changes, regardless of the direction the column is sorted in.
How can I get my table to show the sort direction in the column header?

Unfortunately, you cannot do it right now, because we didn't integrate this option.
Perhaps we'll add it in the future, but I cannot give you an exact date.
