Thank you for excellent support!

Out of 9 columns (A, B,C, D,E, F,G, H,I) I need to display (i.e. dynamically refresh) 3 different sets of columns based on the filter value(s) selected in multi-select Checkbox column A. For example:

• If column A filter = 1, then display columns (B,C, D,E)
• If column A filter = 2, then display columns (B,C, F,G)
• If column A filter = 3, then display columns (B,C, H,I)
• If column A filter = 1 and 2, then display columns (B,C, D,E, F,G)
• If column A filter = 2 and 3, then display columns (B,C, F,G, H,I)
• If column A filter = 1 and 3, then display columns (B,C, D,E, H,I)
• If column A filter = 1 and 2 and 3 (or none), then display all columns

I don't know JS language, but looking for pseudo-code something like this:

function DisplayColumnSubset( $jsDef, $columnHeader )
    {
    $jsDef->bVisible = ( $jsDef->origHeader IN {"A","B"} )
    $jsDef->bVisible = ( $jsDef->origHeader IN {"D","E"} ) AND ( Column_A_Filter [array] includes 1 OR None );
    $jsDef->bVisible = ( $jsDef->origHeader IN {"F","G"} ) AND ( Column_A_Filter [array] includes 2 OR None );
    $jsDef->bVisible = ( $jsDef->origHeader IN {"H","I"} ) AND ( Column_A_Filter [array] includes 3 OR None );
    return $jsDef;
   }
add_filter( 'wpdatatables_filter_column_js_definition', 'DisplayColumnSubset', 10, 2 );
-- not sure if 'Column_A_Filter [array]' can be accessed from this function ??? --

BTW: I think this ticket may be close to what I need: Hide Columns

BTW: I am using Powerful Filters for wpDataTables., which is great at dynamically updating filter values as filters are entered.

Thank you.

Hi Bogdan.

Thank you, but the tricky part here is that I need to only display a subset of columns from (A, B,C, D,E, F,G, H,I) based on what is selected for the column A filter, and hiding the remaining columns. So, for example, if column A filter is set to 1, then the table grid should only display columns(B,C, D,E) and hide columns (F,G, H,I).

Thank you.

Okay, thank you.

Another option might be to dynamically set the width to 0 pixels or chnage the cell background or text colours. Would that be possible?

Thank you.
