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!
how can I do to give permission to an editor-type user just to edit but not to delete a record, and how do I give permissions to another type of user to be able to edit and delete records from the same table
Hello alan
Thank you for your purchase.
I am sorry to disappoint you, but unfortunately something like this is not possible with the plugin's built-in features.
You can choose which user roles will be able to edit the table, but that means they will be able to add new rows, edit existing ones, and delete rows. You can take a look at this thread and see how you can hide the "Delete" button, so they are not able to delete anything.
However, if you do this, your other users wouldn't be able to delete the records from the table either.
You may want to add the CSS only on front-end, in between the <style>...</style> tags, so it only applies to the front-end tables. Then, you can provide admin credentials to the other users, so they can delete rows from back-end.
If you need to limit the user role, so they can access only wpDataTables, but don't have general Admin role permissions, you can install the User Role Editor plugin, and define their limitations there.
Kind Regards,
Aleksandar Vuković
