 * Hi,
 * is there a way to sort multiple columns that are not necessarily in order e.g.
   I want to sort my table by column 8 descending followed by column 7 descending.
 * Thanks,
    Shay

 * Sort by column 7 and 8 descending.
    `[table sort=",,,,,,desc,desc"][/table]`
 * It seems tablesorter will always sort from left to the right.
 * Alternatively you should manually sort by holding `Shift` key and click on each
   haeader.
