Search

I have the same problem with width and I fixed it with the foolowing lines: 'autoWidth: false,' 'scrollX: true,' Then it will take in consideration the configuration you have made with 'columndefs'. For my part I'm losing the search field...

data: "product_name.pdfcontrolled", target: 8 } ], "columnDefs": [ // This block sets up

100, 200] ], pageLength: 15, columnDefs: [ { targets: [0], visible: false,

ajax $("#requestForm #listing").html(content); $('#listing').dataTable({ "columnDefs": [ {"title": "Status", "targets": 0

Solved: columnDefs: [ { targets: [0, 1, 3, 4, 5, 6 ], className: 'dt-body-center' } ]

suggestion for the developers: "columnDefs": [ { "type": "num-fmt", "targets": 4,

To hide a column: http://datatables.net/examples/basic_init/hidden_columns.html Then in your "columnDefs": { // Sort column 1 (formatted date) by column 6 (hidden seconds) "orderData":[ 6 ], "targets": [ 1 ] }, Column numbering is entirely up to you of course.

Eureka, that worked. So the type has to be set either in the columnDefs or the columns option - both places isn't necessary. Thank you so much for taking so much time with this. Really appreciated!

I user deferLoading and columnDefs to generate a URL.

extend: 'colvis', postfixButtons: [ 'colvisRestore' ] } ], columnDefs: [ { targets: [-3,-4,-5,-8,-10], visible: false
