Here’s how I recommend using the class.
<ol>
<li>Either activate this plugin, or include the class in your own plugin file.</li>
<li>When you start to render the page with the post list, define some columns and then instantiate the class: 
$cols = array( 
 array( 
 ‘name’ => ‘restaurant_name’, 
 ‘title’ => ‘Restaurant Name’, 
 ‘css_class’ => ‘restaurant-name’, 
 ‘is_default’ => true 
 ), 
 array( 
 ‘name’ => ‘cuisine_type’, 
 ‘title’ => ‘Cuisine Type’, 
 ‘css_class’ => ‘cuisine-type’, 
 ‘default_order’ => ‘desc’ 
 ) 
); 
$sortable = new BBG_CPT_Sort( $cols );</li>
<li>As you render your table, you can use all sorts of fun methods to create column headers. Example:</li>
</ol>
 have_columns() ) : ?> 
 have_columns() ) : $sortable->the_column() ?> 
 <th class="the_column_css_class() ?>”> 
 <a href="the_column_next_link( ‘url’ ) ?>”>the_column_title() ?></a>

Boone's Sortable Columns

A handy, extensible class for adding sortable columns your custom post type lists.

Have you ever wanted to show a lot of data in a table, but hate how badly it scales on smaller mobile devices? FooTable solves this problem by hiding certain columns on smaller devices, but still allowing the user to expand each row to see the columns that were hidden
