  This example here is adding column filters onto the table's footer.

  The code:

  .appendTo($(column.footer()).empty())
  

  is adding that new select element to the footer, but it could be placed anywhere in your DOM. That code is going through all columns, regardless of visibility, because of this loop:

              this.api()
                  .columns()
                  .every(function () {
  

  You could change that to be

              this.api()
                  .columns([6,7)
                  .every(function () {
  

  to just create the searches for your two columns.
