    Hello,
    we want to use the plugin DataTables ColumnFilterWidgets and want to use separated values from a cell. There is a column “Job” in our table and the field of every row could have multiple entries like “Programmers / Installers / Managers / …”.
    Is it possible to separate those entries to set a filter for each of them?

    I hope you understand what I mean.

    Kind regards
    Karl

    Hi,

    thanks for your post, and sorry for the trouble.

    Yes, that’s possible. Please try extending the Shortcode on the page with another parameter:

    datatables_columnfilterwidgets_separator=" / "

    (or 

    datatables_columnfilterwidgets_separator="/"

    ), depending on whether the spaces around the / cause problems.

    Regards,
    Tobias
