Error when adding Filter Widget by trigger

[megatom]

Hello,
i updated my tablesorter version from 2.7 to 2.10 (i missed some versions, i know)
After this the following code from your example is not working anymore:

if($(".sortableFilter").length){ // only applay filter when class is set on table
    // Update the list of widgets to apply to the table (add or remove) 
    $(".sortableFilter").data("tablesorter").widgets = ['filter'];  
    // This method applies the widget - no need to keep updating 
    $('.sortableFilter').trigger('applyWidgets'); 
}

Now i tested to downgrade versions and i tried 2.8.2, with this version code is running and filter widget is applied.
With 2.9.0 i get the same error in console:

TypeError: b.filter_regex is undefined

So what is wrong with my implementation?
Did i miss any changes?

Thx for help

I am also getting the same issue when using the latest 2.10 tablesorter and widget plugin. And when I downgrade to 2.8 version the code is working fine.

I get the following error when using 2.10 version
"uncaught TypeError: Cannot set property 'child' of undefined" at line 9 of jquery.tablesorter.min.js

Here is my code

$(document).on('click', '#searchfilter i', function () {
    $('#jobs-table').data('tablesorter').widgets = ['filter'];
    $('#jobs-table').trigger('applyWidgets');
    return false;
});

Also how can I remove or destroy just the "filter" widget. I am trying to show and hide filter widget on a click of search button.

Appreciate your help fixing this issue.
