Default Data Filtering (New)
We have just added some brand new features in Ninja Tables. We would like to thank Michael Maliniak, who submitted a support ticket and asked us to add this feature.
The feature allows you to quickly and easily display just the rows you want to show by providing a simple filter text in the table shortcode. In this case, you should filter the data that has created earlier in the table.
For example, Say you have a table with lots of movie data and you want to show the rows that only contain “Adventure”. This can be previously done in only one possible way- your user had to manually search for “Adventure” movies manually, given that you have allowed the Search/Filter option in your table. But the Default Data Filtering feature allows you as an admin to set default filtering options in a table containing a huge amount of data.
We also added more useful features regarding this. Please check the usage.
Usage:
Simple
[ninja_tables id="TABLEID" filter="john smith"]
This will show the rows which contain john smith
AND
Make a query more specific by separating additional parts with a capitalized AND string.
[ninja_tables id="TABLEID" filter="john AND smith"]
This would match all rows containing bothjohn andsmith.
OR
Expand a query by separating additional parts with a capitalized OR string.
[ninja_tables id="TABLEID" filter="john OR smith"]
This would match all rows containing both john OR smith
Negate
Exclude a value from the results by prefixing it with a minus - sign.
[ninja_tables id="TABLEID" filter="john -smith"]
This would match all rows containing the wordjohn but would exclude any containingsmith.
Make a query more specific by separating additional parts with a capitalized AND string.
Phrases
Match an exact word or phrase by wrapping it in quotes ".
[ninja_tables id="TABLEID" filter='"brown fox"']
The above query would match all rows containing the exact phrase brown fox. Please note that this feature is only available on Ninja Tables Pro Add-on. If you did not purchase NinjaTables Pro, You can purchase the add-on right now. I can say, It’s worth your money
