Hi, Mark.

I am sorry, but i am struggling to fully understand this issue.

Basically, hiding a column from the table's view ( column visibility)

and allowing to search or filter by that column value are two separate things in the logic of our plugin.

We have a lot of users with various use-cases who like to hide a certain column but they wish to be able to filter or search by it on tables,

that is why our developers made a "visibility" option,  but the "filtering" and "searching" is another option.

For example, i can hide this wdt_ID column from the Manual Table, and it will not be visible in the actual table;

but let's say if i search for number 2 - it will go through all the columns which have the "Enable/Disable in Global search" on the column settings / or in the column list, as you said.

And if i leave the "wdt_ID" as one of the "searchable" columns, it is going to give me that resulting row,

like on these screenshots :

First we show an example how it looks if we leave the wdt_ID as a visible column,

and of course - this Client "Connor John" row will be one of the results, since the table searches for all columns that have number 2 in any cell.

Now, if we hide the wdt_ID column from table view,

we can still search by it - but that column is not actually visible in the table.

So, i was not able to reproduce this issue.

If you can confirm that we understood correctly - for you, when you have hidden the columns visibility,

it was still visible in the table until you disabled it from global search?

Thank you.
