We're Moving to a New Support Platform – Starting June 1st!
We’re excited to let you know that starting June 1st, we’ll be transitioning to a new support system that will be available directly on our product websites – Amelia, wpDataTables, and Report Builder. In fact, the new support platform is already live for Amelia and wpDataTables, and we encourage you to reach out to us there.
You'll always be able to reach us through a widget in the bottom right corner of each website, where you can ask questions, report issues, or simply get assistance.
While we still do not offer live support, a new advanced, AI-powered assistant, trained on our documentation, use cases, and real conversations with our team, is there to help with basic to intermediate questions in no time.
We're doing our best to make this transition smooth and hassle-free. After June 1st, this current support website will redirect you to the new "Contact Us" pages on our product sites.
Thanks for your continued support and trust – we’re excited to bring you an even better support experience!
Is there way to automatically hide empty columns on first load?
Hi Frank,
Thank you for your purchase.
Unfortunately something like this is not possible without custom coding. You can take a look at this solution how it can be achieved - Link
Looks interesting, thanks. Where should data tables plugin code be placed within your plugin? In its own js file under plugins/wpdatatables/assets/js/wpdatatables? And where could I put the initialization code so that it does not get overwritten on plugin updates?
Hi Frank,
You can put your custom JavaScript code in wpDataTables Custom JS field on wpDataTables settings page. Like that changes will not be overwritten with plugin update.
Also you can create WordPress Custom template and include new JavaScript file where you can add your custom code. Later you can use that WordPress Custom template on specific pages.
Ok, I went with the settings page method and inserted the code from your link. It does not work and gives console error:
for the line at the end:
"fnInitComplete": function () {
Hi Frank,
You can't copy whole code and past it. It is just an example how it can be done. It should be modified by you table and wpDataTable plugin. Something like that requires little custom coding.
Hi Frank,
You can try to use datatables initComplete callback - https://datatables.net/reference/option/initComplete because we don't how our own callback that will work on table initialization.
Ok, thanks, you can close the ticket.
