 * When I build a table (see code below) using both the column filter widget extension
   and the buttons extension, only the datatables_buttons show on the webpage. The
   column filter pull down menus do not show.
 * Is there something I can do to have both available?
 * [table id=30 datatables_fixedcolumns_left_columns=2 datatables_columnfilterwidgets
   =true datatables_columnfilterwidgets_exclude_columns=1,3,4,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14,15
   datatables_buttons=”excel” /]

 * Hi,
 * thanks for your post, and sorry for the trouble.
 * The reason for this is that they overwrite a parameter that both are using. To
   fix this, you’ll need to add a “Custom Command”: To display both extensions, 
   you need to add:
 *     ```
       "dom": "BWlfrtip"
       ```
   
 * in the “Custom Commands” textfield on the “Edit” screen of your table.
    The `
   B` stands for the Buttons Extension, the `W` stands for the ColumnFilterWidgets,
   according to the DataTables Documenation at [https://datatables.net/reference/option/dom](https://datatables.net/reference/option/dom)
 * Regards,
    Tobias
