Is it possible to filter by row & column?

hAtul89

I'm currently running this code:

myTable.columns('.seto', true, false).search(types, true, false).draw();

to filter my table - by column.

I want to add an other layer of filtering - by row class ("if row has class") - somthing like the described here:

How do I combine both?

This is what I have tried till now.

if (heavy) {

    jQuery_3_3_1.fn.dataTable.ext.search.push (
        function (settings, data, dataIndex) {
            return $(dataTables.myTable.row(dataIndex).node()).hasClass('light-editor');
        }
    );
    // this.myTable.draw();
} 
else {
    jQuery_3_3_1.fn.dataTable.ext.search.pop();
    // dataTables.myTable.draw();
}

doesn't work well.
Filters the first time -after playing around with the filters it leaves me with 2 rows

Without seeing your code in action its hard to say what the problem is. Do you get any errors in your browser's console?

I think instead of pushing and popping the search API I would just push it once and use the if statement inside the function to control whether it checks for heavy. I would also change the selector in line 5 to make it more generic. Here is an example with my suggested changes:
