"Foreign Keys on SQL query tables of VIEW" (#2155057) / TMS-Plugins

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!

Hey there,
Just thought I'd let you know about an issue I ran into.

When trying to create a foreign key to a sql query generated table, adding the semicolon in the query breaks the foreign key and the dropdown select box is blank.

Deleting the semicolon makes everything work fine.

Hello withlovingarms
Thank you for reaching out to us, but we are already aware of that issue.
Not only that, but you may want to look out for these as well:
For MySQL engine we are dynamically adding the accent grave ( ` ), so there's no need to use it around the table name in the query. If you use them, there's a chance search, filtering and sorting will not work correctly.
If you leave the asterisk ( * ) in the same row, the table may not display due to a conflict with security plugins or mod_security.
Once again thanks for the heads-up, and if you run into anything else, please let us know.
Best regards.
Kind Regards,

Aleksandar Vuković
