How to disable searching in specific DataTable columns?

Question

I\'m using successfully this code

function refreshDataTable() {
        // The table is made sortable
        $(\'#order_proposal_table\').DataTable({
              


        

Answer 1

Have you tried passing null for the remaining 4 columns rather than just specifying the first 5? So:

'columns': [
            { 'searchable': false },
            { 'searchable': false },
            null,   
            null,
            { 'searchable': false },
            null,   
            null,   
            null,   
            null
        ]

I would have posted this as a comment but I couldn't include the example.
