Hidden Rules

I was wondering if it was possible to create hidden rules. I came across this old issue: #156 . That doesn’t seem to be very helpful though. Can you give me an example of modifying the rules after using setRulesFromSQL ? Here’s my use case:

The app I am creating is a custom reporting app. We will be able to connect to any database and query and columns from any table or view. It’s taken a lot of work, but it’s mostly working very well so far. Now the thing is we want to let our clients see the reports as well… We want to setup the default filters beforehand and then they can modify them when running the report. So we can edit, but they cant… and what we want is to be able to set some filter like:

WHERE ClientId = 123

And we don’t want this to show up for clients when they are running it… for obvious security reasons. Therefore, it is important to be able to have hidden filters. Please tell me how I can do this.

Thanks in advance.

@mistic100 Hi there. A colleague of mine has implemented this feature. You can find his fork, here: https://github.com/VoTranQuan/jQuery-QueryBuilder/tree/dev. I’ve asked him to create a pull request… but you may wish to just copy the important parts instead of everything. Please take a look. You can see an example of how it works on the README.

@gordon-matt not in time frame that will suit you. You can submit the PR but I won’t look at it before a while
