Hi

I am using wpdatatables Version 2.2.3

I should like to have a single wpDataTable to allow me to add and/or edit a row code on the transactions table.

so I can define the Edit Column code as follows for selecting a code from the page load

EDITING, Editor Input Type Single-valueselectbox

Data Read from table on page load

But to add a new code, this definition would need to change to

EDITING, Editor Input Type One-line edit

So I can define 2 wpDatatables one for Edit, one for Add and thus 2 webpages, but is there an alternative option, so users can edit and/or add on the same webpage.

I may be missing something obvious..

Many Thanks in advance

Colin

Hi Bogdan

Thanks for your reply, I have added some screen shots to explain the query.

On my website portfolios screen, when selecting New I may wish to add a new row to the table by using a portfolio_code already loaded on the table (in this case TDW_DEA_POORMAN or TDW_ISA_POORMAN)

(ref dividendm-listcodes_1651106 )

set-up 

(ref datatables-listcodes_1651106)

OR

create a new portfolio_code say TDW_SIPP_POORMAN, in which case can I do this using a combination dropdown list and if not selected, type a new value

(ref dividendm-newcode_1651106 )

set-up 

(ref datatables-newcodes_1651106)

otherwise

I may need to create 2 x wpdatatables for New Entries, unless I am missing something obvious ???

1/ New Entry using existing portfolio_code

2/ New Entry creating a new portfolio_code

I hope this makes sense.

I have another couple of questions in this New Entry Screen area which I will open other tickets for,.

Many Thanks

Hi Bogdan

The system is on localhost only, so sorry no live example. i suspect it is not implemented, but my thinking is as follows :-

1. If you select New to create a new portfolio record, you would need to enter a new portfolio_code value given by  attachments

EDITING, Editor Input Type One-line edit 

2. If you select Edit to edit an existing portfolio record, you may need to enter an existing portfolio_code value given by  attachments

EDITING, Editor Input Type Single-valueselectbox

Data Read from table on page load

This is not a critical issue and I think my thinking may be flawed on this in terms of how I want the system to work, I can use option 1 for both Edit and New options

So unless you have some immediate thoughts I am happy to close this call, with thanks.

I will open another call for some other issues which should be easy to confirm whether they are and option or not implemented.

many thanks.

Best Regards

Colin
