Hey there, Awesome Customers!
Just a heads up: We'll be taking a breather to celebrate International Workers' Day (May 1st and 2nd - Wednesday and Thursday) and Orthodox Easter from Good Friday (May 3rd) through Easter Monday (May 6th). So, from May 1st to May 6th, our team will be off enjoying some well-deserved downtime.
During this time, our customer support will be running on a smaller crew, but don't worry! We'll still be around to help with any urgent matters, though it might take us a bit longer than usual to get back to you.
We'll be back in action at full throttle on May 7th (Tuesday), ready to tackle your questions and requests with gusto!
In the meantime, you can explore our documentation for Amelia and wpDataTables. You'll find loads of helpful resources, including articles and handy video tutorials on YouTube (Amelia's YouTube Channel and wpDataTables' YouTube Channel). These gems might just have the answers you're looking for while we're kicking back.
Thanks a bunch for your understanding and support!
Catch you on the flip side!
Warm regards,
TMS
Hi
Suppose I have a simple table created with WPDataTables with 2 lines (1 and 2) , 2 colums (A and B)
Column A is filled with the following data
(A,1) = 5 (A,2) = 7
For Column B , line 1: I want to add dynamically the sum : (A,1) + (B,1)
In my example it will be 12
How do I do that with a simple code in PHP ? Or Jquery ?
Thanks for your help
Hi again
Further to my previous post I'd like to precise :
1) creating a table updated from google sheet could be a solution , but the updated time is at least 3 minutes (from my assessment) and this does not meet my needs.
2) Using a formila column is not a solution as my calculation is not based on single row values but on multiple rows values distributed in one colum.
Best regards
Yves
Hello Yves
Thank you for your purchase.
I am sorry to disappoint you, but unfortunately something like this is not possible with the plugin's built-in features.
If I'm not mistaken, this is what you want to achieve, correct?
So, B1 would be "=A1+A2"
That's not something wpDataTables can do.
You can add calculation functions for column A, and have the SUM displayed in the footer, but that's about it. Using Formula Columns would allow you to combine row values of columns A and B, but not what you wish to accomplish.
As the Google Spreadsheet file gets bigger, the loading times can increase to 10 - 15 minutes, since there's cache on Google's side.
Kind Regards,
Aleksandar Vuković

Hi Aleksandar
Thank you for your clear and detailed answer.
Do you know if there is any plan from TMS Plugins to provide a more "excel -like" behaviour for the cells (i.e. possibility to use some Formula Cells) ?
Do you have any examples of code which could help me ? (i.e. reading cells, calculating and inserting in a cell)
Best regards
Yves
Hello Yves
I don't believe we'll ever achieve the complexity of Excel formulas, but the plugin is constantly under development, so it may evolve in that direction at some time in the future.
Unfortunately, there are is no code that would help you out here, but you can only use the Formula Columns.
Kind Regards,
