Hi,
If I create a table using wpdatatables in my WordPress site, from a linked data source (Excel file) on my desktop computer, is it possible to automatically update new data inputted from my data source unto the WordPress site table?
This question is assuming i need to input data on my source file, and have internet connection issues, and would expect it to update as soon as i get connected, without having to update the site table myself again.
Hello Paschal
Thank you for your interest in our plugin.
I am sorry to disappoint you, but unfortunately something like this is not possible with the plugin's built-in features.
Tables linked to an existing Excel file use the file (from your desktop, for example), and create a copy of it in ../wp-content/uploads/YEAR/MONTH/ folder. The file in that folder is being used to generate the table, not the original file on your desktop. So, you can edit the file on your desktop, and copy and replace that same file in the Uploads folder. That way, the table will have the same structure, and the new data will be displayed in the wpDataTable.
Kind Regards,
Aleksandar Vuković
