Hidden Columns Appearing for Split Second

    Hi Tobias,

    New problem I’m dealing with and couldn’t find any other support topics on it.

    I’m hiding columns in the table but I still need to search the content from the hidden columns. I’ve been using this Custom Command I found in another support ticket:
    “aoColumnDefs”: [ { “bVisible”: false, “aTargets”: [ 3,4,5,6 ] } ]

    It works great for searching the hidden content, however I notice that when the page first opens or I refresh it, all the columns (including the hidden ones) appear for a split second and make the table jump from one size to another.

    Is there anyway to avoid this? It just looks a little odd to see the table freak out when the page first loads.

    Here is the page it appears on: https://www.commonagenda.co/2014/table/

    Best,

    Daniel

    Hi,

    thanks for your post, and sorry for the trouble.

    This is a result from how the JS library works. Additionally to hiding it via the JS command, you can hide it with this “Custom CSS” (on the “Plugin Options” screen). With that, it should never be visible.

    .tablepress-id-6 .column-4,
.tablepress-id-6 .column-5,
.tablepress-id-6 .column-6,
.tablepress-id-6 .column-7 {
  display: none;
}

    Regards,
    Tobias

    You’re the best Tobias. Works perfectly. Hidden content is still searchable and no longer loading that split second before hiding. Thank you very much for the help.
