    Hello,
    I am using the datatables-button-filter extension and I need to filter a hidden column, but the filter does not work on that hidden column. Is there any way to filter this column?
    [table id=articles responsive=collapse datatables_button_filter=true hide_columns=”3″/]

    Thank you for your help and consideration.

    Hi,

    thanks for your post, and sorry for the trouble.

    You can’t filter on a column that is hidden using the hide_columns Shortcode parameter, because that is never sent to the browser.

    However, if you hide the column using CSS code instead, like

    .tablepress-id-articles .column-3 {
  display: none;
}

    the filtering should work.

    Regards,
    Tobias
