 * Hi,
 * Any plans to allow filtering through different fields, such as checkboxes or 
   radio boxes? In a lot of cases, that would allow a simpler UI.
 * If not, do you know, in general, how feasible this would be with custom development?
 * Thanks

 * Hi,
 * thanks for your question, and sorry for the trouble.
 * No, sorry, I do not have plans to add something like that at the moment.
    The
   best way to achieve this would probably be to load the DataTables JS library 
   manually, with a custom initialization code, and further code that uses the API
   functions for filtering, based on your UI’s controls.
 * Regards,
    Tobias
