I believe it's not working with server-side turned off because you deactivated filtering for that table.
When server-side is on, the table loads the rows needed on the page at the exact moment and searching, filtering, switching pages, sorting is all done by the MySQL server on your site.
If you turn it off, all data processing (page switching, sorting, filtering) is done on the client’s computer by JavaScript. Since there's no filtering enabled in the table, it can't work.
If you enable filtering for the table, and for that column - it does work with server-side off.
Hi there,
i wanted to deactivate the server side processing for a table because it seems that the table loads way faster without it.
Sadly it seems that the ?wdt_column_filter[0] in URL does not seem to work with the server side processing deactivatet.
Is that true? Or should it still work?
I havent found anything in your docs.
Regards,
Michael
Hello Michael
It should work regardless of Server-Side processing. I just tested this with an SQL table, and the filter works in both cases.

Hello,
weird, why isnt it working on that page then:
https://meinturniermanager.de/turnierplan/?wdt_column_filter[0]=170&pw=5780
When activating server side processing,
it works..
Regards,
Michael
I'm not sure, Michael
When I delete the URL filter, I get this, though:
Would you be able to provide me with the login details for that page, so I can test it out?

Hi Alekasandar,
ah ok i get it.
When allowing filtering for the table, it works.
It would be cool if there would be a option to enable filter, but to hide all column filters for a table.
I just want to use the wdt_column filter in the URL, but the visitor should not be able to see and do any filtering.
Regards,
Michael
Hi again Michael
If you place the filters above the table, you can hide them with custom CSS.
When you configure the page to include filters, I can help you find the selectors, if you want?
