I would like to know if there is a way to get the ID of the row selected (or several? I would like to display some view and build php actions from the selected Row datas.
An example of what I want to achieve is : building 2 tables (linked by ID) on the same page, when I select a row on the 1rst, then the second table request the data from the "placeholder" and is updated.
What are your recommendations to help me to achieve this? any plugin or addon? Is wpdatatables suitable for my aims?
Hi ilikato, Thank you for your interest in wpdatatables.
Unfortunately at the moment there’s no built-in solution. However, it appears in requests from time to time, so we will add to our idea list and look into some possible solutions on plugin in the future.
2) About Gravitys Form plugin, I understand it enables a bridge from Form to Tables. But, does it able to use data from Tables to Form: to fill drop-dawn's form ?
1) The front-end (JS) part of wpDataTables plays a significant role in the plugin’s functionality. Generally, front-end rendering is done by the DataTables jQuery plugin, but wpDataTables introduces some callbacks of its own.
All wpDataTables existing on the page are reflected in the global JavaScript object called ‘wpDataTables‘. If you check this variable in the JS developer console you will see the wpDataTables as properties of this object. More about Front-end callbacks in our documentation on this link.
You can take a look in our documentation also about Actions and Filters which are defined in wpDataTables plugin for customization's by developers.
2) From version 1.1 – released 13.07.2018 Tables made from gravity forms are editable. There are two main features:
Server-side processing for large tables – if a gravity form has more than 3000-5000 entries, this feature allows adding lazy loading to the table. Front-end editing for Gravity Forms-based tables – using this feature you can edit the Gravity forms entries directly from wpDataTables (a standard Gravity editor will appear in a popup).
You can read more about Gravity Forms integration for wpDataTables in our documentation on this link.
3) Gravity Forms integration add-on is working with a wpDataTables plugin and a core Gravity Forms plugin. However, integration with other Gravity Forms add-ons isn’t confirmed, so we cannot guarantee that it will work
From version 1.1.3 – released 23.10.2018 it is added feature that can show data from Chained Selects Add-on integration.
For example if you have in form three dropdowns: 1. Year, 2. Make, 3. Model. So in the wpDataTable these entries will be displayed like:

Hi Milan,
1) Ok, but can you confirm I can use select functions DataTables API (rows().select(), columns().select() and cells().select()) with the data tables core of wpdatatables?
2) About Gravitys Form plugin, I understand it enables a bridge from Form to Tables. But, does it able to use data from Tables to Form: to fill drop-dawn's form ?
3) If no, does your pluggin also support this gravity's plugin https://codecanyon.net/item/ gravity-forms-wpdb-mysql-connect/5968479?s_rank=37 who enables to fill drop-daw from Tables ?? And does it support both: mysql- in plugin and the chain selects plugin https://www.gravityforms.com/add-ons/ chained-selects/ working together?
Thanks to your answer, it will help to see if your solution is suitable for me.
