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
It happens to me from time to time that a table gets damaged when saving it. It happens to me mostly on SQL lined tables, but not only after saving an error message is shown.
The problem is that after such an incident, few BAD things happen:
· You cannot open the table again in the backend. (Error).
· Or you can open it, but it's empty.
· All the work you put into configuring it is lost.
· In some cases, all the HTML pages where the table was in don't load and display an error.
· The only way to get the HTML pages live again is by deleting the table.
In my opinion, this is unacceptable! If there is a problem, the software should warn, but keep the previously saved version working!
The combination of the above with the lack of an import/export option is even more problematic.
When I work on a complicated table, from time to time, I duplicated the table so if something goes wrong, I can go back to an older working version, but I think there should be a solid solution within the plugin.
· Not enabling to save a table that will generate an error. (always keep the last working version).
· Having a proper Import/Export option to backup tables
· Revision control for the last few saves.
·
I am generally super happy with the plugin, and this is friendly feedback for future improvements!
Thanks!
Thank you for your feedback, Erez
We agree with you on that.
Our developers have dropped the idea of developing new features in the next few months, and they'll dedicate their time to make the plugin better - resolve existing bugs and issues, and fix both UI and UX.
I forwarded this ticket to our lead developer, and I hope he'll be able to remedy this in one of our future versions. Can you keep an eye on what changes you're making when these issues occur?
Kind Regards,
Aleksandar Vuković

One case for sure was when I changed the SQL query. I think it is sensitive to modifications in the query.
I am happy with the direction you mentioned. I think the plugin is awesome, but has too many small bugs that you must stabalize.
Keep up the good work!
Thanks for your support, Erez
I usually modify one SQL table for testing locally, and I haven't had any issues modifying the query. Even if the change was from a simple query to a complex one, or vice-versa.
Most of these issues needs to be debugged when they happen, so if you run into them, please make sure to write down exactly when and how they happened, so we can recreate them and debug them locally.
Thanks for your support, once again.
Kind Regards,

OK. I underatnd that and I also understand that errors can occur in any system.
The more critical thing is that in a case of any error the previous working version of the table must remain and not overwriten unless the save is sucsusfull. And/or there should be a roleback option to previous versions
I agree, Erez
I hope our development team will be able to find a solution soon.
