Bootstrap table - sortPriority in multiple-sort extension doesn't work

Question

I use bootstrap-table and multiple-sort extension. In this jsfiddle is working extension. In my table initial order of first column is wrong (looks like initial ordering is not executed) and I don't know why.

jsfiddle

html

<table class="table table-striped table-bordered table-hover" cellspacing="0" id="table3" data-show-columns="true" data-show-multi-sort="true" data-sort-priority='[{"sortName":"CustomerName","sortOrder":"desc"}]'>
   <thead>
      <tr>
         <th data-field="CustomerName" data-sortable="true">CustomerN</th>
         <th data-field="ProjectName" data-sortable="true">ProjectN</th>
         <th data-field="ProjectType" data-sortable="true">ProjectT</th>
         <th data-field="ProjectDetails" data-sortable="true">ProjectD</th>
      </tr>

</table>

javascript

$('#table3').bootstrapTable({
});

Answer 1

You can pass the initial configuration options so that sorting is done when the table is initialised in jQuery itself like this:

$(function(){
  $('#table3').bootstrapTable(
  {"sortName": "CustomerName","sortOrder":"desc"});
});

If you do not pass any sorting options when you are initialising the table it won't do anything except enabling sort.

Working JSFiddle.
