Issue with row index function

Nishi

When using row index function using the following syntax
$( '#table' ).dataTable().api().row('.selected',{ order: 'applied' }).index()
it returns the index of the row with original order and not current sort order.
Is this a bug?

Hi @Nishi ,

No it's not. row().index() returns the row index, which is constant regardless of the ordering or filtering. If you want to know the position of the selected row in the table, you can do something like this:

table.rows().indexes().indexOf(table.row('.selected').index())

Cheers,
