HI hernahi,
Thank you for your purchase.

If your MySQL-query based wpDataTable doesn’t work correctly with server-side processing, probably this is happening because wpDataTables server has problems with parsing of the query and building new queries dynamically (happens rarely, but does sometimes). To avoid this please prepare a MySQL view (a stored query), which will return the data that you need, call it e.g. “view1” and then build a wpDataTabled based on a simple query like “SELECT * FROM view1″.

Please note some this when working with the server-side processing feature:

• Please do not use “LIMIT” in the SELECT statement. wpDataTables adds it automatically and it will be overridden.
• Please do not use “ORDER BY” in the SELECT statement. wpDataTables has its own sorting engine so it makes no sense to use MySQL’s sorting, since it will be overridden. Also server-side processing feature adds this part of statement automatically when users triggers the sorting on the front-end, and having it in initial statement may cause the table to crash.

Best regards.

Hi hernahi,

You can use the placeholders but not in the VIEW.

You can create some VIEW for example view_one and then use the placeholders so the query should look like this for example

SELECT * FROM view_one
WHERE (someplaceholder like) %CURRENT_USER_ID% = 3

Best regards.

Hi hernahi,

You are welcome.

Hope that everything will work fine now.

Best regards.
