Clearing column searches for all but one column

YOM

Hey there,

I'm trying to clear the search value for all columns except for one.

// Clearing column searches in datatables API (Control)
dt.columns(function (idx, data, node) {
  const col = columns[idx];
  return col.data !== "column_name"; // Clear all but column_name
})
  .search("")
  .draw();

This doesn't appear to be working as expected. Any help is appreciated, thank you!

Ah apologies, I realize now the issue is being caused by our application modifying columns in a separate area to "filter" the columns being shown, so the indexes are off. This code does in fact work
