Forum:Sort buttons on sortable tables do not appear

Greetings, I've created a page about certain articles grouped up in a table and added sortable classes into them, but the buttons to sort out the table do not appear for some reason. I searched around but I couldn't find a clear answer to why this is happening.

What I did find however, is that MediaWiki:Wikia.css has information about prettytable and wikitable, having a look at a few other Wikia.css of other wiki didn't help me as they don't even have such lines written, but different css attributes.

What can I do to fix this issue, and I was also wondering if there's a way I could assume that the icons in the Icon section could remain and not stretch out the table because of the description being too big? -- Zikkun (talk)  06:39, May 11, 2012 (UTC)


 * I believe that, by default, sortable tables need the "sortable" class assigned to them for the sorting to work. As for the second issue - I don't quite understand what you mean. — Sovq 13:43, May 11, 2012 (UTC)
