Hiding a particular column of a table from grid

Questions › Hiding a particular column of a table from grid

Bhavesh Garg asked 8 years ago

I have added a new column;ID to my table to select it as a primary key only for developer purpose and I want to hide it when displaying the grid as it is of no use to end-user and will only create confusion. Can you please tell me what changes should I make to the "index.php" file given in phpGrid_Free version in it's demo->editing folder. I have been trying to do it from last 2 days but I can't. Thanks

To hide a column, you need to define column settings as mentioned here:
http://www.phpgrid.org/docs/#Selecting_Specific_Columns

And after that, make the ID column as hidden:
http://www.phpgrid.org/docs/#Hiding_Column

Refer demos / misc / example-all for full options demo.

I have tried this but it's not working. I don't know why.
This are the lines which I added in ..demos/editing/index.php

$col = array();
$col["title"] = "GDAid";
$col["name"] = "GDAid";
$col["hidden"] = true;
$col["hidedlg"] = true;
$col["editrules"] = array("edithidden"=>true);
$col["viewable"] = false;
$cols[] = $col;

but no result.

On line 40, you should call:

$g->set_columns($cols,true);
