If you see the column in the drop-down, it should be enough.
However, using a query like this may cause some issues.
Please prepare a MySQL view (a stored query), which will return the data that you need, call it e.g. “view1” and then build a wpDataTable based on a simple query like “SELECT * FROM view1″.
When working with the server-side processing feature, please note:
Please do not use “LIMIT” in the SELECT statement. wpDataTables adds it automatically and it will be overridden.
Please do not use “ORDER BY” in the SELECT statement. wpDataTables has its own sorting engine so it makes no sense to use MySQL’s sorting, since it will be overridden. Also, server-side processing feature adds this part of statement automatically when users trigger the sorting on the front-end, and having it in initial statement may cause the table to crash.
I've created a table that include both an Post Author Column and a wp_user.ID column.
On the "Editing" tab, I've set the "User ID Column" to my wp_user.ID column.
When I login with a user that has data, no data is visible in the table?
This is the query I am using:
SELECT posts_deliverable.ID AS deliverable_ID,
posts_deliverable.post_title AS deliverable_post_title,
CONCAT('<a href="',posts_deliverable.guid,'">',posts_deliverable.post_title,'</a>') AS deliverable_title_with_link_to_post,
posts_deliverable.post_content AS deliverable_post_content,
posts_deliverable.post_status AS deliverable_post_status,
posts_deliverable_author.display_name AS deliverable_post_author,
posts_deliverable_author.ID AS deliverable_post_user_ID,
deliverable_taxonomy_category_tbl.name AS deliverable_taxonomy_category
FROM wp_posts AS posts_deliverable
INNER JOIN wp_users AS posts_deliverable_author
ON posts_deliverable_author.ID = posts_deliverable.post_author
INNER JOIN (SELECT name, object_id as id FROM wp_terms AS deliverable_taxonomy_category_tbl_terms INNER JOIN wp_term_taxonomy AS deliverable_taxonomy_category_tbl_termtaxonomy ON deliverable_taxonomy_category_tbl_termtaxonomy.term_id = deliverable_taxonomy_category_tbl_terms.term_id AND deliverable_taxonomy_category_tbl_termtaxonomy.taxonomy = 'category' INNER JOIN wp_term_relationships AS rel_deliverable_taxonomy_category_tbl ON deliverable_taxonomy_category_tbl_termtaxonomy.term_taxonomy_id = rel_deliverable_taxonomy_category_tbl.term_taxonomy_id) AS deliverable_taxonomy_category_tbl
ON deliverable_taxonomy_category_tbl.ID = posts_deliverable.id
WHERE 1=1
Hello Lance
I'm sorry, but I don't see wp_user.ID column in your query (you mean wp_users table, right?).
The column needs to be included in the query in order to get it to work.

Yes sorry I meant wp_users.
The query includes INNER JOIN wp_users AS posts_deliverable_author
Is this not enough?
