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!
Hi,
I wish to change the placeholder text of the search box....
The plugins search box is enabled and it has a predefined text ""Search table""
I want to change this to a customized text, but I don't know how.
I was told that I can go into the plugins files and change the text directly from there, but the problem is when the pulugin gets updated It will get lost.
Is there a way maybe via the custom css or js settings to change the placeholder text?
I appreciate your help.
:)
Hello untalbob
Yeah, you can translate the placeholder in this file: ..wp-content/plugins/wpdatatables/source/class.wpdatatable.php around line 3441.
Unfortunately, you will need to do it every time the plugin updates, or create your custom solution. I cannot help you with the custom solution, since that is not included in the provided support for the plugin.
Kind Regards,
Aleksandar Vuković
