Problem with custom search and search panes

Description of problem: When I am using a custom search as shown in the example on this page, the custom search does not play nicely with the search panes. If you enter a value in the min and/or max input fields, you will see that the values in the search panes all go away. I would expect that they would filter the same as they would if you used the search box. What needs to be changed in this example so that the custom search works the same as the search input with search panes?

Hi @khunicycler ,

Take a look at this forum post asking the same thing.

The solution is to only act on the desired table by adding

if (settings.nTable.id !== 'myTarget'){
  return true;
}

to the top of your plugin.

Thanks,
Sandy
