Allow hidden columns to apply to other tables (with the same columns)
Allow hidden columns to apply to other tables (with the same columns)
I am using the Buttons plug-in to allow users to mark columns as hidden after accessing the datatable. While navigating the website, whenever I come back to a table that I have changed, the columns I selected remain hidden. Is there a way to have these change apply for other tables in the website that use the same columns?
Ideally I would like all tables with the same column names to change their views when the "Hide/Show" columns settings are changed. How do I control this?

As far as DataTables is concerned, each table is unique so there's no connection between them. You could use
stateSave, usingstateLoadCallbackandstateSaveCallbackto store the information on a server which can then have logic to manipulate multiple tables.Colin
