I am looking to format the background/fill color of a cell without having to rely on the text content of the cell. is there a way to achieve this using css or to use non visible characters in the cell to trigger a color change.
I'm not sure if you wish to paint the background of only some cells, or all cells in a column.
If it's the former - you would need to use conditional formatting, but if it's the latter, you can add the CSS class "bckcolor" for example in column settings, and then go to wpDataTables settings/Custom JS and CSS and define that class in Custom CSS field:

table.wpDataTable .bckcolor { background-color: yellow !important; }Kind Regards,
