In combination with the YADCF plugin, showing hidden column titles for dropdowns

mistaq

In a recent StackOverflow question, the YADCF creator answered with a jsfiddle response that involved the first column of the DataTable being hidden while still having filtering enabled. However, it does not have a title. I ask this because in the event that more than one column is hidden while still having filtering enabled, multiple unlabelled filters may be confusing and not helpful to the user.

The DataTables plugin does have both hidden columns and titles, but I haven't found a way to keep titles active despite columns being hidden (if it exists in the first place).
