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!

    From your documentation here:

    https://wpdatatables.com/documentation/front-end-editing/editor-input-types/

    For the Editor Input Type of None, it says:

    This is an empty editor input type; it indicates that front-end users will not be allowed to edit the values of this column, and no input would be rendered. For edited rows, this column will not be modified, for new rows, the default value will be used if provided, or a blank value will be inserted if no default value is provided.

    Note that it says "for new rows, the default value will be used if provided" which is a feature I'm looking to use.  However, when I set a field to None, I no longer have a default value field.  Attached is a screenshot of what I see when I select "None".

    Is there some way to set a default value with the "None" option?

    Thanks,
    Carl

    Hi Carl,
    Thank you for your purchase.

    Unfortunately that is not possible with built in features of plugin. When you set None in editor input type there is no option where you can set default value for this column. We will correct that explanation in our documentation. Thank you for reporting this.

    Best regards.

    Kind Regards,
