Hurrah - good to hear you got it going. Allan

That is correct. At this time there is no support for complex headers with ColReorder - sorry. That might change in future, and DataTables 2 will lay the groundwork for that, but there is obviously a lot of complicated cases whereby you might move groups of columns, or a grouped item out of a group etc. It isn't on the short term development plan.

I'm guessing from your description you are using server-side processing (serverSide)? If so, then no, the checkbox column cannot be sortable. The reason for that is that the checked state is client-side, but the sorting is all happening at the server-side. Thus the server-side doesn't have the information available to be able to sort the column. Allan

It works, thanks!

Thank you! The formatted number option worked perfectly in all the tables I had, thank you very much! :)

The column-reorder event fires when either the user or API reorders the column. I would look at turning off the event handler before reordering via the API then turn it back on once the API is complete. Kevin

Very grateful for the help. I had several versions of Jquery

That is a styling issue specific to your page. We will need to see the problem to help troubleshoot. Please post a link to your page or a test case replicating the issue so we can help debug. https://datatables.net/manual/tech-notes/10#How-to-provide-a-test-case You could right click the header and try using the Inspect tool to see if there is a CSS causing the issue. Or you could try removing any custom CSS to see if there are conflicts. Use the Download Builder to make sure you are loading all the correct Datatables files for the styling framework you are using. So you could have moved your original code into initComplete and it would have worked :smile: Kevin

that super worked for me, I was calling the wrong variable at the end, tanks so much Kevin!!!

Nice, thanks for posting - I'm sure that'll be useful for others, Colin
