Table Filter/Charts Add-on - How to Hide the Hide Column filter itself

Question

I would like to be able to hide the 'Hide Columns' filter from the Filter Display itself.

You may use the standard Confluence HTML macro on the specific page, it's available for Server and Data Center.

Hi Katernina,

Thanks for this solution but this applies to a whole space or an instance. Can we do this on page level only?

Hi @Casey Maynard ,

You may use two Table Filter macros - just wrap your table subsequently into the two macros. Then you'll be able to hide the required columns with the help of the first Table Filter macro and allow your colleagues to filter the result table with the hidden columns with the help of the second macro (they won't see that anything is hidden unless they enter edit page mode).

And if you want to prevent your colleagues from hiding columns at all, here are several useful CSS for you:

* Hide the "Hide Columns" for the live (inline) filtration

a.show-filter.cursor-pointer[data-filter-type="columnhider"] {
display: none;
}

* Hide the "Hide Columns" for the filtering panel

.filter-container.columnhider-element {
display: none;
}

* Hide the "Hide Columns" for the standard "Add filters" dialog

select.filter-type option[value="columnhider"] {
display: none;
}

These CSS can be added to the whole Confluence instance or to specific spaces (documentation).
