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!

    Hej

    We have 2 different users.

    User 1 /role = ansat: shall be able to edit, delete and add rows.

    User 2/role = guest: shall only be able to edit exitsting rows.

    Is that now possible? - what would it cost for a child with these feature?

    Hi Martin,

    Thank you for your purchase.

    Sorry for disappointment, but something like this is not possible with built-in features of plugin.

    Unfortunately, at the moment we don't have available developers which can do this customization for you, because there is a lot of priority task that have to be done.

    Thank you for understanding.

    It probably can be done with some custom work, but our developers are very busy at the moment, working on some priority tasks and fixing bugs and issues with our plugins, so they won't be having the time for custom work in near future.

    But we can recommend these services for customization:

    https://codeable.io/?ref=l1TW1

    https://wpkraken.io/?tms-plugins

    They do develop such solutions, so can you please send your inquiry to them?

    Kind Regards, 

    Isidora Markovic

    Martin,

    Make tables based on SQL queries to the same physical table. Then assign different access rights to these tables.

    When someone with admin rights logged in, show him a SQL query based table with appropriate settings, allowing edit, add, etc.

    When someone with, let's say, subscriber rights comes in, show him a different SQL query based table with no editing features. In your case, you shall also disable add and delete buttons, e.g. with quick CSS.

    For both SQL query based tables specify the same physical table as a data source.

    Feel free to contact me for any questions.

    Thank you for your feedback, JN

    There may also be a workaround available:

    If I have this table:

    5458776907.png

    This is a manual table which has manually entered IDs from wp_users and roles from wp_usermeta:

    7855603551.png
    6462766399.png
    7686895681.png

    So, then I go to create an SQL query based table which will display entries based on user roles using this query:

    SELECT  new_table.id AS ID,
            new_table.role AS Role,
            new_table.product AS Product,
            new_table.amount AS Amount
    FROM wp_wpdatatable_6 AS new_table
    JOIN wp_usermeta AS new_table_1
    ON new_table_1.user_id = %CURRENT_USER_ID%
    AND new_table_1.meta_value LIKE CONCAT('%', new_table.role, '%')
    

    When I'm logged in with user ID = 1, I see this:

    9999185249.png

    When I'm logged in with user ID = 4, I see the same thing. And when I'm logged in as one of the subscribers, I can only see the rows where role = subscriber:

    2907856651.png

    The only difference is that as subscriber I don't have access to back-end, so this confirms it is working on both front and back.

    So, we're only left with hiding unnecessary columns, adding names, and so on.

    Hope this helps.

    Kind Regards,
