Hello,

 

How can I implement advanced filtering within the default theme?

 

I won't be using "datatables" theme, since it slows down my thousand-records table loading time.

ATM there is no easy way to do it you will need to code it as a extension to GC or modify the base code directly .... sorry i can't help more

Dear Robert, thank you anyway for your kind reply!

 

What I am trying to accomplish, is to use Grocery Crud with a large dataset, and advanced filtering.

 

With the datatables theme I have advanced filtering, but being it a client-side table, it is very slow, unfortunately!

With flexigrid, i get very fast loading times, but no advanced filtering..

 

I really like Grocery CRUD and would not like to even think of giving up on it, and replace it with another CRUD!

Hi George

 

There was 1 way to workaround on the same - here - Just in case you are interested - u surely can have a workaround for filtering the data if u have some stuff like categories.

 

As for any other type of search - what you can do is copy / paste the search box from the bottom of flexigrid view and add it to the view on the top - that will allow you to search across all the fields in the grid. 

I know it aint the best of the things to go with but an alternative solution to what you looked out for.. can be worked out in this way :)
