Saving other http query parameters along with filters

[kingsdeb]

I am currently customizing the column display by passing some query parameters in the get request. By that i am setting conditions in the grid to display column or not.

For e.g:

if @value
 g.column name: 'Name', attribute: 'name' ...
end

If value is set, will display the column.
I have many columns and i don't want to hide the columns using CSS, i just want to get the columns which are desired in every request.
I even dump the filter in the request as hidden fields.
This is working as well.
Note sure if this is the correct way to do it.

But i now want to save my other http query parameters along with the filters in the serialised query which gets created.
Can we do it ?

This is perfectly valid way to show/hide certain columns, but I am afraid you will have to store @value separately

When you say "store the @value separately" , does it mean, we will have create new attributes in saved query model and pass the value using "extra_parameters" hash ?

I am not sure, I mean you will have to find a way to deal with it outside of the plugin, in your app. If I were you I would copy the code for saved queries from the plugin to your app and modify it to your liking. I've wanted to remove this functionality away from the plugin many times, I believe it doesn't belong there,].

Okay, Thanks for the quick reply. @leikind
