Can you please try again after deleting those, on the table’s “ Edit” screen? * Regards, Tobias * Thread Starter [trixox](https://wordpress.org/support/users/trixox/) * (@trixox) * [6 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/filter-bug-3/#post-11876913) * You were right, thank you. Lets go for another question: Is there any oportunity to use the collapse mode for just mobile (desktop the normal version)? * Currently I am using the flip mode for that case but I do not like the horizontal scrolling there.. * Otherwise: Great work! * Plugin Author [Tobias Bäthge](https://wordpress.org/support/users/tobiasbg/) * (@tobiasbg) * [6 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/filter-bug-3/#post-11876918) * Hi, * no, sorry, that’s not directly possible, due to how the `collapse` mode works. It only cares about the table and screen widths, but not about the device type( mobile or desktop). * Regards, Tobias * Thread Starter [trixox](https://wordpress.org/support/users/trixox/) * (@trixox) * [6 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/filter-bug-3/#post-11876949) * Okay. Is there any other opportunity to make scrolling in the mobile version vertically with being responsive? (desktop too).? * Thread Starter [trixox](https://wordpress.org/support/users/trixox/) * (@trixox) * [6 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/filter-bug-3/#post-11878865) * Some additional questions: * 1) If I search for a data sheet called m-116 it works fine, if I type in m116, it does not. Is there any way I can manage this? * 2) In my table there is a strange case, where filtering the left section (Part) causes, that the last entry is M-994 and not M-1816. Whats the problem here? * Thank you for developing this great plugin! - This reply was modified 6 years, 9 months ago by [trixox](https://wordpress.org/support/users/trixox/). - This reply was modified 6 years, 9 months ago by [trixox](https://wordpress.org/support/users/trixox/). * Thread Starter [trixox](https://wordpress.org/support/users/trixox/) * (@trixox) * [6 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/filter-bug-3/#post-11880055) * 3) Can I modify the entry steps? For Example: Show 20, show 50, show 100? I won’t need “Show 25” for example. * Plugin Author [Tobias Bäthge](https://wordpress.org/support/users/tobiasbg/) * (@tobiasbg) * [6 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/filter-bug-3/#post-11882232) * Hi, * 0) I’m not really sure that I understand that question with the scrolling, can you explain that more? * 1) The searching is exact searching, so M116 is simply different to M-116. If you want to allow both, you’d have to add both into the table. For example, you could add a new second column where you put the part number again with the `-`, but that column can the be hidden from the visitor with CSS code. * 2) You mean “sorting” hear and not “filtering” right? This is caused by the “ M-” in the values. This causes the sorting algorithm to use text sorting and not number sorting. To change this, you could use the TablePress Extension from [https://tablepress.org/extensions/datatables-sorting-plugins/](https://tablepress.org/extensions/datatables-sorting-plugins/) * 3) For this, you could add this to the “Custom Commands” text field on the table’s“ Edit” screen: * ``` "lengthMenu": [ 20, 50, 100 ] ``` * Regards, Tobias * Thread Starter [trixox](https://wordpress.org/support/users/trixox/) * (@trixox) * [6 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/filter-bug-3/#post-11882265) * Hi, * 1) Could you tell me how to do this exactly? What CSS Code? * Plugin Author [Tobias Bäthge](https://wordpress.org/support/users/tobiasbg/) * (@tobiasbg) * [6 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/filter-bug-3/#post-11882293) * Hi, * 1) Something like * ``` .tablepress-id-3 .column-2 { display: none; } ``` * (with correct table ID and column number). * Regards, Tobias * Thread Starter [trixox](https://wordpress.org/support/users/trixox/) * (@trixox) * [6 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/filter-bug-3/#post-11882305) * Thanks! Do i need to put that in the plugin css form or in the editor? * Plugin Author [Tobias Bäthge](https://wordpress.org/support/users/tobiasbg/) * (@tobiasbg) * [6 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/filter-bug-3/#post-11882333) * Hi, * this goes into the “Custom CSS” text field on the “Plugin Options” screen of TablePress. * Regards, Tobias * Thread Starter [trixox](https://wordpress.org/support/users/trixox/) * (@trixox) * [6 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/filter-bug-3/#post-11882630) * Thanks a lot for your effort..honestly. * 1) Everything worked, besides the sort plugin. I have installed it but did not work in my case (automatically). What do I need to do exactly to make sure, that it is sorted correctly? * 2) “lengthMenu”: [ 20, 50, 100 ] works but it makes the “Show all” disappear ( plugin).

Then, you can add a “Custom Command” (I’ll do that below, because of the other one.) * 2) To add that again, you can modify the existing “Custom Command”. * In summary, please use: * ``` "lengthMenu":[[20,50,100,-1],[20,50,100,"All"]], "columnDefs": [ { "type": "formatted-num", "targets": [ 0 ] } ] ``` * Regards, Tobias Viewing 15 replies - 1 through 15 (of 17 total) 1 [2](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/filter-bug-3/page/2/?output_format=md) [→](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/filter-bug-3/page/2/?output_format=md) The topic ‘Filter Bug’ is closed to new replies. * ![](https://ps.w.org/tablepress/assets/icon.svg?rev=3192944) * [TablePress - Tables in WordPress made easy](https://wordpress.org/plugins/tablepress/) * [Frequently Asked Questions](https://wordpress.org/plugins/tablepress/#faq) * [Support Threads](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/tablepress/) * [Active Topics](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/tablepress/active/) * [Unresolved Topics](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/tablepress/unresolved/) * [Reviews](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/tablepress/reviews/) * 17 replies * 2 participants * Last reply from: [Tobias Bäthge](https://wordpress.org/support/users/tobiasbg/) * Last activity: [6 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/filter-bug-3/page/2/#post-11883911) * Status: resolved
