 * Hi Tobias!
 * I love your plugin, it is a great tool.
 * I have a question.
    How can I clear the table_filter? How can I clean or erase
   the value of the table_filter variable? The search box does not work correctly.
 * The page I need help with: _[[log in](https://login.wordpress.org/?redirect_to=https%3A%2F%2Fwordpress.org%2Fsupport%2Ftopic%2Fclear-table_filter%2F%3Foutput_format%3Dmd&locale=en_US)
   to see the link]_

 * Hi,
 * thanks for your post, and sorry for the trouble.
 * Can you elaborate what exactly is not working? From what I can see, the table
   is filtered nicely. Or do you want to filter using the JS search field instead?
   If so, you’ll just need a little bit more: You will need to install and activate
   the Extension from [https://tablepress.org/extensions/datatables-auto-filter/](https://tablepress.org/extensions/datatables-auto-filter/)
   and make one modification in a PHP file: [https://wordpress.org/support/topic/automatic-filtering-by-url-parameter/#post-10149102](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/automatic-filtering-by-url-parameter/#post-10149102)
