I currently have column filters set as text boxes at the bottom of my tables' columns. I was wondering how I might be able to make one of these filter text boxes readonly to certain users (filtering on this table is currently being done with URL filtering and I'd like certain users to not be able to change the value of one of the filters). Is there a way to accomplish this with PHP or perhaps Custom wpDataTables JS?
Sorry to disappoint you but unfortunately something like this is not possible to achieve with the plugin built in features at the moment.
Probably this can be done with some custom JS, to set the filters to be disabled when you browse the page but this is not included in the regular support of the plugin, and it requires some custom work.
Hi there, absolutely loving the plugin so far!

Thanks very much for your help in advance!
