 * This might be a dumb question, but how do you make it so that your first column
   in a table doesn’t sort? I want the first column to show the rank, i.e.
 * 1
    2 3 4 5
 * But I don’t want that one column to move when people sort the other columns in
   the table. How do I make it static? Is that possible?

 * [@jjgordo2](https://wordpress.org/support/users/jjgordo2/) this can possibly 
   be done using the javascript trigger `visualizer:chart:settings:extend` and refer
   to [https://datatables.net/forums/discussion/21164/disable-sorting-of-one-column](https://datatables.net/forums/discussion/21164/disable-sorting-of-one-column)
   but you would need some knowledge of javascript for that.

 * Closing this assuming this is now fixed. If you continue to face a problem, please
   create a new ticket.
