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!

    Hi,

    I have a table with server-side processing, that has thousands of rows.

    Whenever I need to download in excel ALL rows, I need first to display (show) all rows, what takes time and sometimes could not work if the table is too large.

    Is there anyway in server-side processing tables to download the excel with all existing rows, even if I am displaying for example 10 rows?

    Thanks

    JLO

    Hello again JLO.

    I am sorry to disappoint you, but unfortunately no. Full list of table-tools limitations is located in our documentation, but here's why:

    Table Tools consists of a block of buttons that provides additional features for the tables. These functionalities are based on a 3rd party HTML5 library.

    For tables with server-side processing, only the visible rows will be exported to any format.

    Generated PDF, XLS, CSV are not customizable. Unfortunately, the library allows very little “fine-tuning” of the generated files, so font, size, and other properties cannot be changed.

    You can’t export columns that are hidden – they will not be visible in any exporting or printing tool.

    You can take a look at our Report Builder add-on, which can do this for you, and export entire tables to Excel or Word files. It is a paid add-on, so please go through the documentation and feel free to ask anything before purchase.

    Best regards.

    Kind Regards, 

    Aleksandar Vuković
