Yes, it is possible.
When you view the data list of a table using shortcode, you can specify a comma-delimited list of field names of the column that you do not want to see.
For example,
[cdbt-view table = "$ {table_name}" exclude_cols = "created, updated"]
Hi
I have tried to use …[cdbt-view table….exclude_cols=”created, updated”], but it only manages to hide the one of the columns and not both “created date”/”updated date”.
If you are able to help with this issue, I have another question.
If I want to hide “No.” column, what is the name that needs to added to the shortcode?
Regards Simon
Figured out how to “hide” the “No.”-column.
I have not figured out how to make the “exclude_cols=”” hide more than just one column.
I guess that […display_list_columnname=”false”] is another option, but I don’t know what the names for “ID” and “Created Date” are.
So first half of the question still remains.

Thank you for the question.
If you want to hide a column of “No.”, you need to specify the “false” to attribute of “display_list_num”.
In this case, example shortcode as follows:
[cdbt-view table=”…” display_list_num=”false” exclude_cols=”created,updated”]
Please try.
Thanks, that worked. Just missed the lack of space between after the “,”.
What if I want to hide the “ID” column?
Tried to add it to the exclude_cols=”created,updated,id” and with “ident”, “iden” but couldnt figure out what to use.
Thanks for the help so far.

I’m glad to be the behavior of your hope.
The column names of the ID column will be upper case alphabet.
So, the shortcode is either of the following:
[cdbt-view table=”…” display_list_num=”false” exclude_cols=”created,updated”]
or
[cdbt-view table=”…” exclude_cols=”ID,created,updated”]
Please try also.
Ahh, thanks alot!
That helped and now I only have the columns I wanted to be displayed.
Awesome and great/quick response time.
*thumbs up*
