filter by date

Hi,

thanks for your post, and sorry for the trouble.

Just to be sure, you must install and activate both of these TablePress Extensions:
https://tablepress.org/extensions/row-filter/
https://tablepress.org/download/extension/tablepress-row-filter-date.zip

Hi,

thanks for your post, and sorry for the trouble.

Then, please try to get the Row Filter Extension to work first (without the Row Filter By Date functionality), i.e. try if a Shortcode like

[table id=1 responsive=collapse filter="10/11/2022" filter_date_columns=1 /]

works. After that, please try again with the Row Filter By Date Extension. Make sure to use proper upright " quotation marks, as sometimes curly ones can slip in from copy/paste.

im getting there and when it works, ill make a donation

the curly braces threw everything off..so its fixed…

im trying to understand the difference between the row fuilter and row filter by date..it seems the row filter has the same functionality unless I missed something

Hi,

ah, yes, those braces would indeed break this functionality… Nice find!

The Row Filter Extension essentially brings the actual functionality, of filtering rows by a (static/pre-defined) string. The Row Filter by?Date Extension builds on top of that and essentially generates that filter string from certain command keywords (e.g. today will be transformed to 10/16/2022 which will then be used in the filtering).
