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!

    My table is shown in the attachment. I want to show the total percentage in the marked fields - 57,11 - 19,44 ...

    Is this possible in wpdatatables?

    Hello Hans

    The data type in the first 3 fields is Integer, so wpdatatables calculates the total.
    But the marked fields seem to be formula columns. If that is correct, then, as of now wpdatatables does not calculate the total of a formula column.

    Regards
    Srinath

    Thanks, another question:

    Is it possible to assign to these fields data e.g. via a shortcode or a specific wpdatatables function?

    Hi Hans,

    Thank you for your purchase.

    Thanks Srinath for answering for previous question.

    I can say that Srinath is right, but I can add one more thing. Based on your image for requested columns you already set Min and Max values which means it is not formula (Formula column don't have those options) that you are using float column where those calculation functions are available. So  you need just to turn on Calculate total on Data tab in column settings.

    More about Calculation function you can read here.

    "Is it possible to assign to these fields data e.g. via a shortcode or a specific wpdatatables function?"

    Unfortunately that is not possible with built in features of plugin. You can find shortcode below each calculated function which you can use in another table or outside the table, but not in the area that you point out.

    Kind Regards,
