Hey there, Awesome Customers!
Just a heads up: We'll be taking a breather to celebrate International Workers' Day (May 1st and 2nd - Wednesday and Thursday) and Orthodox Easter from Good Friday (May 3rd) through Easter Monday (May 6th). So, from May 1st to May 6th, our team will be off enjoying some well-deserved downtime.
During this time, our customer support will be running on a smaller crew, but don't worry! We'll still be around to help with any urgent matters, though it might take us a bit longer than usual to get back to you.
We'll be back in action at full throttle on May 7th (Tuesday), ready to tackle your questions and requests with gusto!
In the meantime, you can explore our documentation for Amelia and wpDataTables. You'll find loads of helpful resources, including articles and handy video tutorials on YouTube (Amelia's YouTube Channel and wpDataTables' YouTube Channel). These gems might just have the answers you're looking for while we're kicking back.
Thanks a bunch for your understanding and support!
Catch you on the flip side!
Warm regards,
TMS
Hi,
in column settings, I cannot predefine a filter using placeholders like %VAR1% if I select "number" or "number range" as filter type.
It'd be good to allow this so we can set predefined filters using shortcode.
Thank you
Johannes
Hi Johannes,
Thank you for your purchase.
Sorry for late response.
We are located in Serbia and our working time is from 10:00 to 17:00 CET. business days.
Actually you can use %VAR1% in predefined filters, but you have to change "Filter type" to string. My suggestion is to look up video tutorial about placeholders in our documentation on this link.
For number range that is not possible like that, but you can achieve this throw mysql query. For example
SELECT * FROM table_name
WHERE table_name.number > %VAR1%
AND table_name.number < %VAR2%
Kind Regards,
Isidora Markovic

Hi Milan,
thanks for the help.
I'd like to have a predefined filter but not limit the query to certain values, so your suggestion won't work. I'm talking about a table column with year values, so string filtering isn't really doing the job (you cannot select a range).
If you could implement this feature sometime in a future release, I'm sure your customers would be thankful.
Kind regards
Hi Johannes,
Yes, for now it is possible only throw sql query.
Thank you for your suggestion. I will forward this to my team to think about this like new feature in future.
Kind Regards,
Isidora Markovic
