thanks for your question.

That functionality is actually integrated with the plugin and should be enabled by default (depends on when you installed the plugin). In case it is not turned, you can easily do so, by selected (and activating) the “DataTables JavaScript Library” on the “Plugin Options” screen.
Then, you’ll need to enable it for the table(s) in question on their respective “Edit” screen.
Also (depending on your theme), it might be necessary to add a call to wp_footer(); the the footer.php of your theme.

Hope this helps. If not, please provide a link to the page with the table in question, so that I can take a look at it.

Best wishes,
Tobias

Many thanks

thanks for the link, that looks like a pretty cool script!

From the view of WP-Table Reloaded, there’s nothing that speaks against such a feature, however it is not integrated by default. It should (taking the examples, especially Example 2) on that page, be easy though, to add that kind of filtering to a table that was generated by the plugin. All you need to do is include the scripts, the checkboxes and a custom call to the JavaScript function.
WP-Table Reloaded provides plugin hooks to integrate the calls seemlessly.

By the way: The included DataTables library (http://www.datatables.net) offers something similar maybe: It has a fnFilter API function that will do the filtering. You also would only need to add the checkboxes and some code to make the clicks on the checkbox trigger the filtering.

I would like to use checkboxes on my website and use them for filtering rows.
Example: http://www.picnet.com.au/resources/tablefilter/demo.htm

You can use checkboxes at the top of the example.

Thanks again,
Marnix

thanks for your comment.

Unfortunately I don’t really know yet where you want that functionality. You can hide certain rows on the “Edit” screen already. Is that what you want?
Otherwise, please explain a little more what you are trying to do.

Thanks!
Tobias

Is it possible to hide/filter rows with a checkbox?

I would like to show/hide table rows with multiple checkboxes.

Thanks a lot!

no, I did not install Events calendar on my site (I just don’t have the time). I did however take a short peak into the code and can see various places that might eventually lead to problems.

One such place is in the way the plugin embeds it’s JavaScript into the page. Therefore, I strongly believe that the error you are experiencing is caused by Events calender. However, I can not fix the bugs in that plugin. Instead, I ask you to contact its developer who knows his code better and might be able to fix the problem.

you did everything right. There’s on tiny thing again however, and that’s the priority of which CSS is used in case of a conflict. Currently the browser will use the background color defined for the rows, as it values it higher than that of the column, as you want it.

That can be easily changed, by adding the !important to the CSS however. Just replace the current CSS for the column background color with this:

.wp-table-reloaded .column-4 {
  background-color: #000022!important;
  color: #FF0000;
}

Everything should then work as you want it :-)

Best wishes,
Tobias

As I told you, the problem was with that other plugin and yours (Events calendar).
When you wrote: “I still can not reproduce the problem”, did you mean that you installed “Events calendar” on your blog? I tested with all the plugins disabled and it works fine. Just with Events Calendar, it crashes. It’s a pitty.

Sorry my english. And I forgot to say thank you and best regards. You are very nice person responding the people questions, many newbies as me.
Thanks
