I'm having the same issue. I opened an issue on GitHub. I don't know if this behavior is a bug or if it's by design.

Update: For me, filtering by searching is being honored, but deleting rows using the DataTables API are not.

deleting rows using the DataTables API are not.

That's odd! On this page if I run:

$('#example').DataTable().rows(':gt(2)').remove().draw()

in the console and then export the table, it will correctly show only three rows in the exported files.

Could you link to a test page showing the issue please.

I crafted a simple test case and indeed, it works as expected. So there must be something wrong with the code on my actual page. Sorry about the false alarm.

I have added YADCF column filter widget(drop down list) in header which contains multiple values,when I select any export button it displays all values from drop down list, instead of showing only name of header.Any suggestions
