Description of problem:
I've recently updated from datatables 1.10 to 2. For column filtering I have cloned the header and used orderCellsTop to prevent it from sorting when clicked.
Now with version 2 I see that orderCellsTop is deprecated and the alternative is using data-dt-order="disable", however for some reason the api columns() returns the cloned column instead of the original. In the linked test case you can see a very simple representation of the problem, if you replace the .attr('data-dt-order', 'disable') with orderCellsTop: true it will work as intended.

personally I would continue using
orderCellsTopif it works in my solution. @allan has this comment in this thread.You may need to make changes at some point if its removed. Hopefully we can talk Allan into keeping the option. I find it useful at times too.
You can control the row the
column().title()fetches the title from by passing in therowparameter. Updated test case showing this:https://live.datatables.net/vetuhule/14/edit
