I am using jQuery DataTables.
I want to remove the search bar and footer (showing how many rows there are visible) that is added to the table by default. I just want to use this plugin for sorting, basically. Can this be done?

For DataTables >=1.10, use:
$('table').dataTable({searching: false, paging: false, info: false});
For DataTables <1.10, use:
$('table').dataTable({bFilter: false, bInfo: false});
or using pure CSS:
.dataTables_filter, .dataTables_info { display: none; }
Check out http://www.datatables.net/examples/basic_init/filter_only.html for a list of features to show/hide.
What you want is to set "bFilter" and "bInfo" to false;
$(document).ready(function() {
$('#example').dataTable( {
"bPaginate": false,
"bFilter": false,
"bInfo": false
} );
} );
You can also not draw the header or footer at all by setting sDom
: http://datatables.net/usage/options#sDom
'sDom': 't'
will display JUST the table, no headers or footers or anything.
It's discussed some here: http://www.datatables.net/forums/discussion/2722/how-to-hide-empty-header-and-footer/p1
If you are using custom filter, you might want to hide search box but still want to enable the filter function, so bFilter: false
is not the way. Use dom: 'lrtp'
instead, default is 'lfrtip'
. Documentation: https://datatables.net/reference/option/dom
var table = $("#datatable").DataTable({
"paging": false,
"ordering": false,
"searching": false
});
A quick and dirty way is to find out the class of the footer and hide it using jQuery or CSS:
$(".dataTables_info").hide();
if you are using themeroller:
.dataTables_wrapper .fg-toolbar { display: none; }
<script>
$(document).ready(function() {
$('#nametable').DataTable({
"bPaginate": false,
"bFilter": false,
"bInfo": false
});
});
</script>
in your datatable constructor
https://datatables.net/forums/discussion/20006/how-to-remove-cross-icon-in-search-box
Here you can add to sDom
element to your code, top search bar is hidden.
$(document).ready(function() {
$('#example').dataTable( {
"sDom": '<"top">rt<"bottom"flp><"clear">'
} );
} );
This can be done by simply changing the configuration:
$('table').dataTable({
paging: false,
info: false
});
But to hide the empty footer; this piece of code does the trick:
$('table').dataTable({
paging: false,
info: false,
//add these config to remove empty header
"bJQueryUI": true,
"sDom": 'lfrtip'
});
As said by @Scott Stafford sDOM
is the most apropiated property to show, hide or relocate the elements that compose the DataTables. I think the sDOM
is now outdated, with the actual patch this property is now dom
.
This property allows to set some class or id to an element too, so you can stylish easier.
Check the oficial documentation here: https://datatables.net/reference/option/dom
This example would show only the table:
$('#myTable').DataTable({
"dom": 't'
});
You can use sDom attribute. Code looks something like this.
$(document).ready(function() {
$('#example').dataTable( {
'sDom': '"top"i'
} );
} );
İt hides search and pager box.
Just a reminder you can't initialise DataTable
on the same <table>
element twice.
If you encounter same issue then you can set searching
and paging
false while initializing DataTable on your HTML <table>
like this
$('#tbl').DataTable({
searching: false,
paging: false,
dom: 'Bfrtip',
buttons: [
'copy', 'csv', 'excel', 'pdf', 'print'
]
});
You could hide them via css:
#example_info, #example_filter{display: none}
I have done this by assigning footer an id and then styling using css :
<table border="1" class="dataTable" id="dataTable_${dtoItem.key}" >
<thead>
<tr>
<th></th>
</tr>
</thead>
<tfoot>
<tr>
<th id="FooterHidden"></th>
</tr>
</tfoot>
<tbody>
<tr>
<td class="copyableField"></td>
</tr>
</tbody>
</table>
then styling using css :
#FooterHidden{
display: none;
}
As above mentioned ways aren't working for me.
I think the simplest way is:
<th data-searchable="false">Column</th>
You can edit only the table you have to modify, without change common CSS or JS.
hello friends you can add simply searching: false in your js
$('#companies_grid').DataTable({
responsive: true,
searching: false,
iDisplayLength: 25,
"ajax": base_url + "companies/company_table",
"columns": [{
"data": "SRNO"
},
{
"data": "CompanyName"
},
{
"data": "Country"
},
{
"data": "CustomDomain"
},
{
"data": "Email"
},
{
"data": "Edit"
}
]
});
