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!
Hello Support, is there a way I can send an email from the wpdatatables submission form to an email account. I would like to get an email after a new entry of data is entered in the wpDatatables form. Since it's tied into a MySQL database I need to know that there was data submitted there, like other submission forms where you can get and email. Is there a way to do this in wpDatatables? Thanks.
Hello ocastell
I am sorry to disappoint you, but unfortunately something like this is not possible with the plugin's built-in features.
The manual tables are created in the database like wp_wpdatatable_#, where wp_ is your database prefix, and # the ID of the table in the database. If you were to develop a custom solution for sending out an e-mail, you may still need that info.
Kind Regards,
Aleksandar Vuković

What about using the 'wpdatatables_after_frontent_edit_row( $formdata, $rowId, $tableId )' to send the email after the submission, and select the fields that were edited and send them in the email for that particular record. How would that be done? I have read that thru a custom php script it can be done. Where would that php code file need to be added to...etc. Is there documentation that gives details on this or is this only done thru a quoted price from TMS? Thanks.
Hello again ocastell
I believe it could be done with that, yes.
If you were to develop this custom script, it is a common practice to include it in theme's functions.php file, or even better the child theme's functions.php file. Child theme's file is better because the child themes don't automatically update, so there's no great risk of loosing your script.
Unfortunately, as a custom solution, this doesn't exist anywhere in our documentation, nor do we have examples. Even if you decided to go with the custom solution, we wouldn't be able to help you out simply because we have a lot to do about our plugins and add-ons, so all our developers' time is already booked. We haven't been accepting custom work for the past few months, and won't be able to in the near future either.
But we can recommend these services for customization:

They do develop such solutions, so can you please send your inquiry to them?
