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'd like to get user input, either from a box above the table, or from a cell in the table (less desirable), and then calculate a value based on the input. Then I'd like to display the calculated value in the table or above the table.
I watched this video, but it looks like wpDataTables has changed since then. Notably the "Editing" option used.
https://wpdatatables.com/video-course/editable-wpdatatables/allowing-front-end-users-to-edit-only-their-own-data/
This is a database from Excel using "Create a table linked to an existing data source."
I'm having trouble figuring out how to do this. I don't want any other columns to be editable by the user.
I have the premium version.
Hi Zach,
Thank you for your purchase.
Sorry for late response.
We are located in Serbia and our working time is from 10:00 to 17:00 CET. business days.
If you want to use option User can see and edit won data that table have to be editable. With first option in table wizard Create a table linked to an existing data source table is not editable and you can't use this feature.
My suggestion is to use third option in table wizard and like that table will be editable and you can use this feature User can see and edit own data.
When you made this table you can set Editor input type to None for columns that you don't want to be edit by the user. For calculation in wpdatatables my suggestion is to take a look about Calculating totals, minimum, maximum and average values in WordPress Tables and also Formula.
Best regards.
Kind Regards,
Isidora Markovic
