I have a table that we are using for memberships that is a SQL table. I wanted to be able to have users sign in and create/update their own data. Which I have it setup and it is working wonderfully.
But our project manager asked if there was a way that we could just have a simple form (for new members) that would feed into the members table.
Is this something the form add-ons would be able to do?
The members are not very technical and for new ones she thought it would be good to just have them fill out the form without having to register and login to edit their own data.
Eventually when they renew their membership they will need to login and update their information, but for now this will get them started.

- No, Formidable Forms integration for wpDataTables add-on is just a connection between Formidable Form plugin and wpDataTable. To be able to have form on the front-end where users can add some data, you will have to have Formidable Form plugin.

Hope this makes sense!

Hi Rhonda Stark,
Thank you for the inquiry.

Unfortunately with this add-on, wpDataTables that are created from Formidable Form entries can't be editable. You can read more about this add-on on this documentation page - Formidable Forms Integration: Integrating with the WordPress form plugin.
OK .. I didn't think so but wanted to make sure I was reading it correctly.
Thanks!
