I would like to have a select filter from a column which contains keywords, separated by comma. this select filter should be dynamic, so "Possible values for column" should be read from table and not predefined.
Is this somehow possible? change the format of the column, using filters/actions, .... ?
If you read from the table, all data in a certain cell will be considered as one value, so if you have:
example
example, example2, example3
example2, example4
Possible values in a filter will be those:
1. "example"
2. "example, example2, example3"
3. "example2, example4"
The only solution would be to add them in "Defined values list" manually.
Changing the format of the column can only be done from column settings, but you can take a look at our hooks and filters, and see if there's anything there that could help you out with the plugin.
"Defined values list" is working for me, but how can I paste a list of possible values?
I'm now using https://www.webcellent.com/tools/uniquekeywords/ to create a unique keywords list, but I'm not able to copy&paste them into the values list field. Neither with comma or new line, they are pasted as one value ... thanks!
Unfortunately, if you simply paste the list of words they will be added as a single entry. To bulk-add them, you need to separate the keywords with a pipe ( | ), so if you copy and paste:

Unfortunately, if you simply paste the list of words they will be added as a single entry. To bulk-add them, you need to separate the keywords with a pipe ( | ), so if you copy and paste:
value 1|value 2|value 3|value 4
It will be added normally:
