Hi,
thanks for your question, and sorry for the trouble.
The easiest solution should be to add this to the “Custom CSS” textarea on the “Plugin Options” screen of TablePress:
.column-filter-widget {
float: right;
}

Hi Tobias,
Thanks for your quick reply. It worked fine.
How can I place each dropdown on top of related column?
And I want to know how to increase size of each dropdown’s length. Now the size isn’t big enough and as you see some of characters are merged in each field.
Thank you,
Ali
Hi,
unfortunately, I don’t really know a solution to this, sorry.
Your best chance might be to extend the CSS code to
.column-filter-widget {
float: right;
width: 13.5%;
margin-left: 5px;
}

Tobias
Hi Tobias,
Thanks it worked well.
Is it possible to change sorting method of values in dropdown list? As you can see on my page now the numbers in each dropdown isn’t sorted based on value.

Ali
Hi,
no, sorry, the dropdowns only support number sorting, but your table cells are text. Unfortunately, the order can therefore not be changed.

Hi Tobias,
I changed my excel file’s cell properties to Number and re-imported it to TablePress. Sorting is still same.
I also added a new table and entered some numbers manually. You can see it in same page below first table. Although all cells are numbers but sorting is same.
Hi,
hhm, that’s weird. Unfortunately, I have no idea why this happens, as I’m not the developer of the ColumnFilterWidgets JavaScript code, sorry.

Hi,
I think in below snippet of JavaScript it changes all fields to text before sorting.
function fnSort( a, b ) {
var a_text = $( a ).text(),
b_text = $( b ).text();
if ( widget.hasOwnProperty( ‘fnSort’ ) ) {
return widget.fnSort( a_text, b_text );
Many thanks for your support.
Hi,
yes, it looks like this has something to do with it. Maybe you can try testing to change this.
Best wishes,
Tobias
