Is it possible to enable multi-column sorting (Shift+Click) in Filament PHP Tables
I’m using Filament PHP (v3) for my admin panel. By default, when I click a column header in a Filament table, it sorts by that column only. If I click another column, the previous sort is removed and only the new column is sorted.
What I want:
I would like to allow users to sort by multiple columns at once (multi-column sorting), similar to how you can Shift+Click in Excel or other table UIs to sort by several columns in sequence.
Is this possible in Filament PHP?
Can I enable multi-column sorting using the default Filament table UI (e.g., by holding Shift and clicking multiple headers)?
If not supported out of the box, is there a recommended way to implement this feature in Filament PHP?
Ideally, I want this to work directly in the table, not through a modal or a separate filter.
Any advice, workarounds, or code samples would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks!
