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!
I have a column set as data type URL, and set it to show as a button.
In the back-end, the button shows as light gray background with blue font.
On the public side, the background color is a dark gray, and the contrast makes it difficult to read.
In general Settings>Color and Font Settings, I have set both a background and font color for "Buttons color in modals".
That is ignored. That may be the wrong place to do this, but I can't figure out any other way to change the button color that appears on the public page. If I knew the right syntax to specify these particular buttons, I would try CSS.
I have been through documentation, but can't find how to resolve this.
Thanks,
Mark
Hello Mark
Issues like this usually occur when there is a conflict either with the theme currently active on your website, or another plugin you have installed.
You could add a custom button class:
Then, in wpDataTables settings/Custom JS and CSS/Custom CSS field, you can define that class. For example:
table.wpDataTable button-color { background-color: light-blue !important; color: black !important; } table.wpDataTable button-color:hover { background-color: white !important; }I hope that helps.
Kind Regards,
Aleksandar Vuković

Hi, Aleksandar
I did look in our CSS, but could not find where the conflict was.
The correct syntax to use to start out the custom CSS, table.wpDataTable, was what really helped.
The code didn't work until I added a dot, as in .button-color, but that fixed it. Then the color "light-blue" was rendered as a dark gray for some reason, but when I substituted my own choices of hex color, everything was good.
We're on track now. Thanks for your help!
Mark
Hi Mark
You're welcome! I'm glad to have helped.
I can't believe I forgot the dot, though, sorry about that.
If you have any further questions or issues, please feel free to open a new ticket, and we'll gladly help.
Kind Regards,
Aleksandar Vuković
