Hi,
thanks for your post, and sorry for the trouble.
Which column filtering are you refering to, here? Can you please post a link to the page with the table where this problem happens, so that I can take a direct look? Thanks!

Tobias
It is not on a production site yet unfortunately
I am talking about the column sokrting extension that guves you option to sort data with multiple columns
The drop down menu?
Hi,
ah, you mean the Extension from https://tablepress.org/extensions/datatables-columnfilterwidgets/ ? Yes, there is a way to exclude certain columns, using a Shortcode parameter. It’s also explained on that page 🙂

Is there is a way to do this as a default option? Since all the tables will follow the same format (like 7xA)
Hi,
yes, for that, you could change the line 36 of the file tablepress-datatables-column-filter-widgets.php from
$default_atts['datatables_columnfilterwidgets_exclude_columns'] = '';
to
$default_atts['datatables_columnfilterwidgets_exclude_columns'] = '1,2,3';
(where 1,2,3 is the parameter value that you want to use as the default).
Regards,
Tobias
