Hi, I'm using your plugin to build a table on our website and it works fantastically well. There is only one detail I cannot get through and I'd like to know if you have a solution before I go too far on my own.

I have activated the "advanced filtering" for 5 out of 6 of the table columns and I'm displaying the filters with the "filter in form" option above the table. So now I have 5 select boxes and here come the question: the current label of the pick boxes are the same as the column headers, is there a way to change those label to a custom name? For example, my first column's header is "Project name", but I'd like the filter label name to be "Projects".

At this point, I have edited the first bloc of code found in /templates/wpdatatables_table_main.inc.php by adding a case of checking the tale header and replacing the output. It works, but I would prefer to have a clean way of either hooking/overriding the file rather than creating a future update or security issue. I tried copying the file into my child theme but unfortunately it doesn't overwrite it.

thank you in advance for the support.

Hi and thanks for the quick answer. Is it in the development plan to include a "Column filter label" field on the admin side for each column to solve this issue? Of course this is my opinion but I think it would be a pretty simple thing to add and would improve customization for the end-user.

thanks.

I'd like to take some time this morning to thank you for the suggestion you made to use jQuery to search and replace the labels. It worked perfectly and saved me a good bunch of hours / headache searching for a solution.

Keep up the good work!
