search for words not the visible table

    Hi Tobias,

    I keep forgetting to ask this: the reason why the letters are so small in certain cells in my table on:
    https://www.heelhulpje.nl/?page_id=1001
    is that I actually wish this column (‘specialiteit’) isn’t visible for the user. I only would like them to be able to search on the words that are provided in the cells of that column, but the totality of words takes a lot of unnecessary space.

    Is there a way to make this column (‘specialiteit’) invisible, but with users still able to find practitioners, based on its content?

    I hope you can help me with this one!

    Thank you!
    Nathalie

    Hi,

    thanks for your question, and sorry for the trouble.

    Sure, that’s no problem. Just add this as a “Custom Command” on the “Edit” screen of the table:

    "columnDefs": [ { "visible": false, "targets": 5 } ]

    The 5 indicates that the 6th column shall be invisible (as counting the columns starts with 0).

    Regards,
    Tobias

    Oooh hahaha, thank you!! That is such a relief ??

    I wonder why I didn’t ask you this earlier, since it has really been a pain in the neck for two years now!
    And now, I’m going to adapt all the columns again, the table now only fills half the page!

    Thank you!
