Topic: Change selector in datatables / Table Editor
How do I change the selector in dataTables so that only clicking on for instance the last coloumn will initiate Selct of that row.
I have tried using
$('#example').DataTable( {select: {selector:'td:last-child',}} );
$('#guide-trin-oversigt').mdbEditor();
And other selectors, but it always remain possible to click on all columns.
Hi there,
i'm not sure what you want to achieve. Could you paste in here your code snippet?
Best,
Ania

The select style of the table is always set to 'single' and the entire row is selectable.

Does the MDB package include the selector extension or does it need to be added manually?

Our package doesn't include selector extensions so if you would like to have that option you need to add this manually. But for next release, that extension will be available in our package.

By adding dataTables extension Selext i can achieve what i want (only select tables by clicking last column).
Unfortunately initialising .mdbEditor() will break that behaviour and make the entire row area for selection again.
I cannot find any documentation on mdbEditor (TAble Editor) on how to change that behaviour.
