A good set of multiple examples of 'Custom Filtering' request/help.

Hi,

I'd very much appreciate your help with 'Custom Filtering' outside of the table, as I want to be able to give website visitors a set of different filters to help get the results they need....

I noticed you have the 'Custom Filtering' where you search from a min & max value, which is great, but need to extend offer more than just this....

I was also looking for details how I would go about using multiple options e.g.

Select: (Show only rows that contains)
Apples [selected]
Oranges [selected]
Bananas [not selected]

So a user can click Apples & Bananas and it will only show apples and bananas rows and exclude oranges (as it wasn't selected)

(Not a cobination of both e.g. Search for apples, then only show apples where bananas is also true, that would be wrong) - It's primary result is to show individual Bananas and Apples rows.

And lastly it would be a case of a 'switch' approach where it only shows one or the other (so type could be defined in column 4 for example)

Type to show:
Fruit [button]
Vegetables [button]
All [button - default]

(select one or other)

so that would work as a toggle.

I imagine something like Select2 > Would handle the visual rendering, but I would just need to code examples on how to do this please, I'm sure your application can do it, just lacking the code to implement.

So for example the image has extensive filtering, which is what I'd like to achieve, I mean the majority of it is stylised selects/Inputs etc.

So if you could provide some example code of using such elements, I'm sure I could apply the rest.

This should help visualise what I meant by show rows (wher ei mention apples, oranges bananas) -where it shows rows as an OR not and AND.

Perhaps I could use this solution with a mix of Datatables, but now you can visually see what I'm after, i hope you can show me how it can be achieved with your plugin?
