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!
To whom it may concern,
Our client's website is currently using your wpdatatables plugin and although we have everything running smoothly in this regard (although the page has not been put live), he would like to inquire about your Powerful filters plugin as he wishes to change the process of how a user will retrieve the end results of the table.
What he wants now is to hide the table completely until all the selections are made via the filtering process.
He also wants to get rid of the Service Provider filter, leaving the Buildings and Service Providers filters to remain. The results based on the 2 filter process selection would show in the middle (he is saying that only 2 service providers max will be listed per building).
eg) Buildings Filter - choose "436 Academy
Services Filter - choose "Roof Repair"
Results shown in side by side column fashion:
RESULTS
Building Service First Service Provider Second Service Provider
436 Academy Roof Repair Ash Roofing Normandeau Roofing
I have attached a .png file to illustrate this better.
So the question is. can the "Powerful filters" with a "Hide Table" setting accommodate what our client is asking for?
Can you please let me know
Hi Deva,
"What he wants now is to hide the table completely until all the selections are made via the filtering process."
- In Powerful filtering add-on there is a feature where you can hide the table before filtering. You can see example on this page from our documentation. The example with hidden table is at the bottom of the page.
"He also wants to get rid of the Service Provider filter, leaving the Buildings and Service Providers filters to remain. The results based on the 2 filter process selection would show in the middle (he is saying that only 2 service providers max will be listed per building)."
- It is possible with wpDataTables built-in features to disable filtering for one column. Eveything you have tot do is to uncheck Add a filter for this column option in column settings.
Also main search field can be hidden in table settings on Sorting and Filtering tab.
