    Hi Tobias!
    I like very much your plugin!
    I’m using the extension DataTables Column Filter, and I would like to put The values in the cells of the last row at the top of the table because I have a lot of rows in my table and I don’t want to use a pagination and I think it has no sense to have the filter row at the bottom.
    Is there any way to do this?

    Hi,

    thanks for your question, and sorry for the trouble.

    This should only require a small change in the value of the parameter for the Shortcode:
    [table id=123 datatables_columnfilter="sPlaceHolder:'head:after'" /]

    Regards,
    Tobias

    Hi!! Thank you a lot!!
    It works for me.

    It’s perfect but I need one more thing and I really appreciate your help. Is there any possibility to have the filter in the row next to the caption?

    My website is http://barcelonabeerchallenge.com/2017/premis-2016 and there are two tables, the first doesn’t contain any filter but the second has the filter with 4 columns. I would like to put keep the caption:”PREMIS PER CATEGORIA – 2016″ as the title of the table and then put the filter. Is that possible somehow?

    Hi,

    I see what you mean, but I don’t think that this will be possible.
    I therefore suggest that you maybe move this heading above the table (using regular text, maybe).

    Regards,

    Hi again!
    I’ve seen that when you use the filter, it shows you the results but at the last row it always shows you the same row, the last row of the table, even if it is not included as a result.
    Bronze Nøgne Ø Imperial Koji Saison Nøgne Ø NORWAY
    How can I remove this row?

    Hi,

    that’s because this row is marked as the “Table Footer row”. Just uncheck that checkbox on the table’s “Edit” screen.

    Regards,
    Tobias

    Hi again Tobias!

    I hope this is the last question, my client does not become never satisfied 😉
    Is it possible to create a checkbox filtering the results? If I write the name of one category now, it returns me only the name of the category not the awards of its category. So, I would like to create a checkbox filtering the results by category showing me all the results of that category.
    Is that possible?

    Sincerely yours,
    Ramon

    Hi Ramon,

    sorry, I’m not aware of a solution for that 🙁
    You would probably have to develop custom code that use the API of the DataTables JavaScript library.
