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 wanted to know if you have any idea or maybe best practices on how to approach this: I have a column which lists different locations; there are only 5 different locations, but you can choose more than one. The cell input is basically a string which either consists of just one location or a list of multiple locations which are comma-separated (see attached screen).
If I want to use filtering options with this column there is unfortunately no way to use (pre-selected) checkbox or select-box because wpdatatables correctly treats the cell input as a string. My goal is to use a select box which shows all the options which are right now divided by comma instead of the different strings.
Is there a smart way to do this?
Thanks in advance.
Best,
R
Hello Reimer
You can go to that column's settings, and under Data tab change "Possible values for column" from "Read from table on page load" to "Defined values list".
Then you can add them one by one, and it will work in mutli-select box filter, and editor.
Kind Regards,

Hello Reimer
Yeah, there seems to be a bug with the select-box and "Clear Filters". Our developer are aware of this, and they will work on the solution in the future. By the way, did you update the plugin to the latest version (3.0.1)? I didn't check locally, but the issue may have been resolved with it.
2. When you go to Column settings/Data, please change "Number of possible values to load" to "All", and that will load all possible options, and the select box will appear much faster.
Kind Regards,
