Problem with ColReorder and column without filter

[felipekoblinger]

Hello! First of all, I'm not sure if it is a bug, I've tried to find an answer, sorry if I'm mistaken.
Versions used: 0.92 and 0.93.beta.18.

I have a table with 7 columns, the last one (index 6) is an action column without filtering. So, I didn't set an object with "column_number: 6" for that column and worked as expected, the filter wrapper "yadcf-filter-wrapper" wasn't generate on it. Then, I've added ColReorder extension and everything was working until I moved a column to action column index (6) position. After that, I couldn't search anything and this error shows up:

Cannot read property 'case_insensitive' of undefined
at yadcfMatchFilter (jquery.dataTables.yadcf.js:816)

YADCF seems to use index 6 to get filter information, but it doesn't exist. It wasn't suppose to change accordingly on moving?

This is my array of objects for YADCF initialization.

[
  {
    "column_number": 0,
    "filter_type": "text",
    "style_class": "form-control"
  },
  ...
  {
    "column_number": 5,
    "filter_type": "select",
    "style_class": "form-control"
  }
]

I've found a fix, setting index 6 in the array and passing a "display: none" class to "style_class". Like this:

{
  "column_number": 6,
  "style_class": "d-none",
  "filter_reset_button_text": false
}

Is there a proper way to hide/disable a column for filtering?

Thanks 😄

Hi

Please make sure you got the latest ColReorder js/css and if it still does not work, please provide a test page jsfiddle/etc

Hello, @vedmack!
I'm using the latest version of ColReorder (1.4.1) with latest version of DataTables (1.10.16).

I've made the JSFiddle to exemplify: https://jsfiddle.net/m72dcmbg/9/

• Move Values column into Tags column position, then try to type anything to filter, nothing is filtered and the error appears on console.

If I hide the column filter with "style_class" instead, it works.
