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 am using Formidable Forms integration with wpData Tables, and have 4 columns. I can see how to sort on individual columns, but I have two columns, one that is a date column, and the other which is a time column.
I need a way to sort on date and time as one combined sort.
How can I accomplish this please?
Hello Timothy.
I am sorry to disappoint you, but unfortunately something like this is not possible with the plugin's built in features.
If you set one column to be the default column for sorting, and then do the same for the second column - the settings for first column will clear, and use the second one for default sorting.
Sorry for any inconvenience.
Best regards.
Kind Regards,
Aleksandar Vuković

I had one other question then..
Formidable Forms Pro comes with a way to display results in spread sheet form, but unfortunately its features in that format are fairly limited when compared to wpData Tables.
Although the sort limitations are actually better, if defined properly in the Formidable' Views area but, front-end sorting is fairly limited.
There's a reason to use both then..
One: Formidable Forms Pro has a method for adding edit and delete links in columns - which are required for some users. While wpData Tables uses front end filtering, which I actually would like to provide on the front end.
Is there a way to add additional custom columns in wpData Tables, where I could insert my own html links for "Edit" and "Delete" methods: which would both be executed by Formidable?
Because, if so, I could get along without front end sorting (I would pre-define a cascading sort in the "Views" back-end setup area of Formidable), and would then use only wpData Tables on the front-end, for it's quick front-end filtering, and its native ability to print and download data by front-end users.
Thank you for your kind assistance.
I have a date field in the table, and I want to limit the displayed data to dates that are less than today's date.
I cannot use an actual date, like today's date because I want to work without my having to update the wpData Table settings each day.
Is there a way to do this?
BTW: you can forget the question about inserting custom data, below; because I found a workaround elsewhere.
Hello Timothy.
Regarding Formidable Forms integration for wpDataTables - please note that tables created from Gravity are not editable.
Now, if you have a date column in your table, and want to display only dates that are less than today's date, you can add a conditional formatting rule for that column (see attachment). When you apply that rule, it will display only the dates before today, like this:
While the contents of the table without the rule are these:
I hope this helps.
Best regards.
