Debugger code (debug.datatables.net): couldn't upload due to CORS policy
Error messages shown: None
Description of problem: I want to use the columnControl plugin to offer search per column (instead of globalSearch) as well as searchLists.
I need to build the page using handlebars. Everything seems fine, except for the search offered by columnControls. the lists are loaded, but selecting a value doesn't filter the table. Same with the search, data types are recognized but entering a search term or selecting a date does nothing to the table.
Can you help?

You have
filter: false,. That disabled all search abilities in the DataTable. Remove that and it will work.Out of interest, why did you use that option? It isn't documented and is legacy, only retained for backwards compatibility.

Let me check, I most certainly saw it in one of the examples.
Since I just started with datatables, I saw this post https://datatables.net/forums/discussion/67039/disable-global-search and experimented with the feature on/off flags I saw in the manual.
Thanks for your super quick help!
You've gone in the deep in with that configuration if you've only just started. Much respect
