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!

CSS code apply to only one table
Closed

    Is there a way to apply CSS code in the box labeled 'Custom wpDataTables CSS' to only apply to specific table(s). Or whatever code you put in that box applies to every wpDataTable you have?


    For example if I use .wpDataTable it applies to all my wpDataTables. Is there a way to apply to only one table for example wpdatatable_id=54 ?

    I am very desperate to to freeze specific headers and columns in different tables.

    Thanks!

    Hello Jon

    When you add some CSS to that field, it applies to all tables - front-end and back-end.

    However, if you wish to add it to a specific table on front-end, you need to include it on the page between the <style>...</style> tags, above the shortcode, in HTML editor like this:

    <style>
    table.wpDataTable .customCss {
    display: none !important;
    }
    </style>
    [wpdatatable id=2]

    That will apply the custom CSS only to the table(s) that appear on that page.

    Kind Regards,

    Thanks for the response Aleksander. What I bolded in the below code is not working (I've tried it with other tables and it works meaning it freezes the header of the table and the 2nd column of the table). Do you know what I should replace that with to work with wpDataTables?


    Thanks so much!


    <style>
       tbody tr td:nth-child(2){
        position: sticky;
        position: -webkit-sticky;
        left: 0;
        z-index: 1;
        background: #fafafb;
        font-weight:bold;
    }
     .foo-table{
        max-width: -webkit-fit-content !important;
    }

    {
        position: relative;
        z-index: 1;
        margin: auto;
        overflow: auto;
        height: 550px;
    }

     thead .footable-header th {
        position: -webkit-sticky;
        position: sticky;
        top: 0;
        z-index:1;
    }

     thead th:nth-child(2){
        position: sticky;
        position: -webkit-sticky;
        left: 0;
        z-index:2

    }
    </style>
    [wpdatatable id=54 table_view=regular]

    Hi again Jon.

    I'm not sure, to be honest.

    Please provide me a temporary WP-admin login for your site where this happens, so we could log in and take a look ‘from the inside’ as that’s the most efficient way to see and resolve the issue. We do not interfere with any data or anything else except for the plugin (in case that’s a production version of the site), and of course we do not provide login data to third party. You can write credentials here just check Private Reply so nobody can see them except us.

    Also, please tell me where that CSS is located, and to which table it applies. If you have the table in front-end, also share the URL of it with me.

    Kind Regards,
