 * Hi,
 * I have created a table at the above URL that includes some nice filtering. What
   another client has asked me is if I can do the same again, but instead of filtering
   the complete table, the table is hidden, then loads dynamically after the filters
   have been set. In other words I guess that I would be building the shortcode,
   then loading it.
 * Although I’m not great with AJAX, I guess that I should be able to muddle my 
   way through, but is there an ability in the datatables system that you are aware
   of that might do that for me? It seems a shame to have to create a form to create
   a shortcode to load, then have trouble revising, where the datatables systems
   seems like it should be able to do that.
 * Cheers
    Simon

 * Hi,
 * thanks for your post, and sorry for the trouble.
 * I see what you mean, but unfortunately, I’m not aware of an existing solution
   for this using the ColumnFilterWidgets dropdowns.
    (There is an approach for 
   this with the normal search field, see [https://wordpress.org/support/topic/start-with-search-bar-only/](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/start-with-search-bar-only/))
 * You’d need to modify the ColumnFilterWidgets JS here, is my guess. Unfortunately,
   as I’m not the developer of that code (I only packaged it as a TablePress Extension),
   I don’t know what modifications are necessary.
    This solution is pure frontend
   JS code though, so no AJAX is necessary.
 * Regards,
    Tobias
