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

I resolved using the columnsDef option.

The following code disabled search for the specified columns. Exactly what I wanted.

'columnDefs'        : [         // see https://datatables.net/reference/option/columns.searchable
                { 
                    'searchable'    : false, 
                    'targets'       : [0,1,4,5,6,7,8,9] 
                },
            ]
