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!
I would like to achieve the following workflow using the Gravity Forms integration for wpdatatables
a) User Logins to a Form (using User Registration Form Add on from Gravity)
b) User inputs some details to the main form
c) Details are shown in wpdatatables once submitted
d) User logs out, they will need to login (using the same credentials as inputted in a) in order to see the details/update the details in wpdatatables. Obviously they could be expected to re-login from any device/browser.
I am generally ok with steps a-c, but dont know how to lock down the wpdatatables to only those users authorised through the main Gravity form login.
Any help much appreciated,
thanks
Paul
Hi Paul,
Thank you for your inquire.
Unfortunately this couldn't be done with built in tools. Maybe it could be done with third party plugin which show content on the page based on use login status. Also, if you are familiar with code it code be done with code customization in our plugin. If you are not our company provide a customization as a paid services
Hi Miljko,
Thanks for your prompt reply,
What if I just use wpdatatables for data entry? How can I then ensure that only users who inputted data are those allowed to view/modify it? I have seen your documentation on
https://wpdatatables.com/documentation/front-end-editing/allowing-users-to-edit-only-their-own-data/
In the documentation it states "if you log out and log in under a different user, you will not see these roles..". What exactly is the mechanism for logging in/logging out it is referring to? If it is wordpress login that doesn't really make sense for Front End entry of data...?? Maybe I am missing something elsewhere in the Settings?
Regards,
Paul
Hi Paul,
We are using WordPress built in user management system for that functionality which means that you need to allow your users to register to your website. After they logged in and modify the data in the table our plugin will record their ID in the user ID column and use that ID for data filtering by the user.
Got it, thanks for your help in setting me on the right track,
Paul
