I just started using the Formidable Add-on. It's great but....
I want to drill-down from a row of the table into a page with the full form. In a Formidable View, I would use their [detaillink] or [editlink] shortcodes. How can I incorporate the view/edit links into a column of the WPDataTables report?
My datatable has one row per Formidable form, showing a few of the main fields. I want to put a link on each row to a page show the full detail of that one form. Typical in a list done via Formidable Views would be a column with a "view" link and another with an "edit" link.
I would rather create the list using WPDatatables instead of Formidable View. To do so, I need to be able to add columns for the links, even though those columns do not exist in the form itself. I could do that via the main SQL query in other data sources. But the Formidable data source does not allow me to modify the SQL.
Is there a way for me to add my own columns to a datatable built from Formidable?
Unfortunately something like this is not possible to achieve with the plugin built in features at the moment. Integration with Formidable forms Add-on will only display the data created from Formidable forms and there is no way to "manipulate" the data like with our manual tables for example.
We developed server side processing and editing features for Integration with Gravity forms add-on and now the next thing that we will do is to make Integration for Formidable server side and editable.

Hi kenkitchen,
Thank you for your purchase.
Sorry but I did not quite understand what are you trying to achieve.
Can you please describe me more or send me some example so I can take a look and give you my suggestion.
Best regards.

Here is a screen shot of what I mean. This table was done using a Formidable View. Note the Edit and View columns at the end of the row.
