Description of problem:
Hi,

I want to use YADCF's cumulative_filtering Tags filter on an externally_triggered table like this:

So I figured I'd use this

        {
            column_number : 4,
            filter_container_id: 'external_filter_container_4',
                filter_type: "multi_select",
                select_type: 'select2',
                column_data_type: "html",
                html_data_type: "text",
                filter_default_label: "Select tag"
        },

and this

{cumulative_filtering: true}

on my externally_triggered code: http://live.datatables.net/xisuwake/2/edit

But it doesn't seem to work.
How can I make it work?
Thank you for your time.

The browser's console is showing this error:

Uncaught TypeError: $selectObject.select2 is not a function

Sounds like you need to load select2.js.

The YADCF plugin is a third party plugin. For specific help with YADCF you will be better off using this link for support.

Oh sorry about posting here, I didn't realize it.
I hope you don't mind me asking one more question:

I included the select2.js and it seems to work but not as I imagined it: http://live.datatables.net/xisuwake/3/edit

How can I get this result? https://i.imgur.com/uAJFAIV.jpg
Thanks.

Their example looks like this:

You will need to ask the developer of YADCF if there is a supported way to get the tags to display the way you want.
