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!

Okay

"New entry", "Edit", and "Delete" modal dialogs aren't popping up for tables in shortcodes

    "New entry", "Edit", and "Delete" dialogs aren't popping up for tables that are displayed in a shortcodes inside an admin page.

    How to test:

    1. Create an SQL Query table with server-side processing enabled.

    2. Create an admin page: (here's an example)

    add_action('admin_menu', 'my_admin_menu');

    function my_admin_menu()
    {
        add_menu_page('My Tables', 'My Tables', 'manage_options', 'my-tables/my-tables.php', 'my_tables_admin_page', 'dashicons-screenoptions', 21);
    }

    function my_tables_admin_page()
    {

        ?>
        <div class="wrap">
            <?php echo do_shortcode('[wpdatatable id=1]'); ?>
        </div>
        <?php

    }

    3. Log into the admin and open the newly created admin page

    4. Test any of the "New entry", "Edit", and "Delete" buttons. The modal dialog doesn't render!

    I'm guessing that it has to do with some missing include or something but the browser console isn't showing any issues.

    Let me know if you need any more information.

    This is very disappointing! Could I please return this plugin and get a refund? I was totally under the impression that the wpDataTables plugin could handle CRUD with shortcodes!

    Hi Micah, 

    Sorry for misunderstanding, actually there is a way that you can use our tables in other back end pages, but not with do_shortcode func.

    You can use function wdtOutputTable which is Helper func that prints out the table in backend. Also you have to include all modals(delete, close and edit modal template)

    <!-- /Modals -->
<?php wdtOutputTable('1'); ?>
<!-- Close modal -->
<?php include WDT_TEMPLATE_PATH . 'admin/common/close_modal.inc.php'; ?>
<!-- Close modal -->
<!-- Delete modal -->
<?php include WDT_TEMPLATE_PATH . 'common/delete_modal.inc.php'; ?>
<!-- /Delete modal -->
<!-- Edit modal -->
<?php include WDT_TEMPLATE_PATH . 'frontend/modal.inc.php'; ?>

    Number 1 is the id of the table so you can replace it with table id that you need.

    Once again sorry for misunderstanding but our plugin is full CRUD application with some specific config in backend pages(templates) like I explain above.

    Best regards

    Kind Regards, 

    Isidora Markovic
