Table filter with header column

Jennifer Che

I created a table in Confluence. By default the top row is the header.

 

I click on the "Heading Column" icon supposedly should make the first column as the header, which would make the font bolded. The first issue I have here is when I click the "Heading Column" icon, every cell in the column become bolded and if I click again then every cell becomes unbolded. It never only make the first column bold. So looks like it is not working properly.

Secondly, if I am successful in making the first column as the header for the table, then can the filter be provided based on that?

As an example, if I have a table like below where first column has the headings. 

Heading1 | abc | def | ghi

Heading2 | active | decom | active

Heading3 | 1 | 51 | 20

Then if I apply a filter to Heading1 and choose the value of Heading1 to be 'abc', then I can get the below result

Heading1 | abc

Heading2 | active

Heading3 | a

This is what I am trying to achieve ultimately. Any idea if this would work?

Hi Jennifer,

I couldn't reproduce the first issue. What version of Confluence do you use?

To filter columns you can use Table Filter macro with Hide columns filter.

Alternatively you can transpose the table with Table Transformer macro, filter it by columns and transpose back:
