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!
We need to take input from our users where the a member id must be taken from a table outside of wpDataTables. How can I do that?
Hello James.
Thank you for your purchase.
If you want to use one column from a different table, my suggestion would be to try with the Foreign Key feature.
Please go through the documentation and see if this would be an option for you.
Best regards.
Kind Regards,

I tried the Foreign Key feature, however, it would only show tables in wpDataTables itself. I need to reference the Lookup primary key from a second database/table as the first column of data in a new wpDataTables table. The other columns will be data entry, an amount US dollars, a date in yyyy-mm-dd format {prefer a datepicker}, a checkbox for cash or check, and a text box for extra remarks or the check number.
It would be better to show the names stored in the extra table as last name, first name, but insert the primary key number in the column field.
Hi again James.
What data source is this other table (from a second database)?
Unfortunately, LOOKUP and other Excel functions can't be imported in wpDataTables, but if you can use it and create a table in PHPMyAdmin, you can create a different table using wpDataTables which would display the source table's primary key. Then you can use the Foreign Key feature again.
Other columns are easy enough to create, so we'll get to that later on. Can you explain in as much detail as you can how I can replicate your use case on my end, so I can test it?
It would be better to show the names stored in the extra table as last name, first name, but insert the primary key number in the column field.
You should be able to use the same Foreign Key multiple times, so you can reference the primary key to link the display value as last name, then first name, and in the end ID.
Best regards.

Hey Jim.
I'm sorry but Skype, TeamViewer, Zoom and all similar forms of communication other than tickets is not possible. Would you be able to record the screen (screencast), and explain there and send it to me?
Best regards.
