Custom search in ajax data

[iprastha]

Hi, first of all a great and very useful library! I have a custom search in my datatable using the ajax.data implementation, something like this:

$('#mytable').dataTable( {
        processing: true,
        serverSide: true,
        ajax: {
            "url"  : "myajaxurl.php",
            "type" : "POST",
            "data"   : function (d){
                d.my_custom_filter = $('#my_custom_filter').val();
            }
        }, ...

How do I pass the "my_custom_filter" value into the database query as an additional where statement ?

Thank You

@iprastha you can accomplish this in the whereClauseArray method.. Here is another issue that has an example of how to do it
