Hi,
thanks for your post, and sorry for the trouble.
The Search bar is normally added by default, unless you turn off the “Search/Filter” checkbox on the table’s “Edit” screen.
If that’s not working, can you please post a link to the page with the table where this problem happens, so that I can take a direct look? Thanks!
Regards,
Tobias
Hi Tobias,
After recent update of WordPress and TablePress, search is not displaying, even though search is enable in the TablePress settings. Here is the example:
https://brainhealthinstitute.rutgers.edu/bhi-regular-members/
Here is the jquery error in Chrome Console:
Uncaught TypeError: Cannot set properties of undefined (setting '_DT_CellIndex')

Hi,
thanks for the link! That helped a lot!
The cause for this problem is invalid/broken HTML code. In particular, in row 211 (for Philip Parker) the HTML code for the email address is incomplete. It’s missing the "> and the link text (likely again the email address).
This invalid HTML code breaks the structure of the table so that the Search feature can not be added.
Regards,
Tobias
