Hi,

Columns will not display (and no data visible) when using serialized php array as a datasource.

I have followed all your instructions from your site but to no avail and also I have tested this with a simple php file (see below) and the result was that the php itself works (i.e. testing outside of wpdatatables) but the data and coiumns do not show or work when creating it via th wpdatatables admin interface.

I have tested this on 2 sites and have the same issue.

Could you let me know how to fix this.

*** test-wpdatatables.php *** see below

$return_array = array();
$return_array[] = array(
    'Id' => '1', // Set the ID
    'Title' => 'Test1', // Set the title
    'Content preview with link' => 'Content1');
$return_array[] = array(
    'Id' => '2', // Set the ID
    'Title' => 'Test2', // Set the title
    'Content' => 'Content2');
$return_array[] = array(
    'Id' => '3', // Set the ID
    'Title' => 'Test3', // Set the title
    'Content' => 'Content3');
echo serialize( $return_array );

Hi Miljko,

Actually that example I gave over simplified what I was doing, I got it to work eventually and it came down to 2 things that got it to work

define('WP_USE_THEMES', false); // (1) this on the first line
include(dirname( __FILE__ ) . '/wp-blog-header.php');

// the WP_Query stuff
// the array $return_array = array(); // Initializing the array that will be used for the table

// (2) then this before the last line
header("HTTP/1.1 200 OK");
echo serialize( $return_array );

BTW : Great product, really impressed

Cheers
