Additive Filtering?

    Tobias,

    I just discovered TablePress and have to give you kudos for an amazing job! Your plugin is both powerful and flexible.

    Right out of the gate, I feel like I’m pushing the envelope of its potential by attempting to replicate the table sorting capabilities shown here on my page shown here (rough draft).

    Specifically, I am trying to determine a method of additive filters, both showing those that are being applied, and adding additional filters by clicking on the links.

    From your perspective – do you think this is possible, and by use of what extensions, if any?

    Hi,

    thanks for your post, and sorry for the trouble.

    I see what you mean, but unfortunately, I’m not aware of an existing solution to this ??
    TablePress is using the external DataTables JavaScript library (which is not developed by me) for the sorting, filtering, etc., so that the best approach probably is to try to develop a custom solution that use the library’s JS API functions. The documentation at https://www.datatables.net/ should be a good starting point.

    With that, the best approach should be to let TablePress “deliver” the HTML code only, while then adding that custom JS solution to the page.

    Regards,
    Tobias

    Tobias,

    I somewhat understood that that may be what had to be done. I appreciate your prompt response.
