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 have two questions related to WP Table.
- I would like to set my table column to a fixed width - and if it ranges out of this max width go to a New Line. Is this possible?
- I now display my Link as a Full Link - which uses a lot of space. Is it possible to use a default icon and attach the link to this icon? My idea is to use two small icons for the Official website, and one for the Github repo?
Thank you in advance for your help.
Regards,
Ruben
Hello Ruben
1. You need to disable the "Scrollable" feature in the Display tab above the table, and then enable "Limit table width" and "Wrap text"
2. If you're using URL Link columns, you can have the link appear as a button, but one column can only store one URL, so you would either need two URL Link columns, or use "String" type columns, and use anchor tags with custom classes.
Kind Regards,
Aleksandar Vuković

Hi Aleksandar,
I found out to set a fixed width for my columns.
Regarding question 2; is it also possible to use a custom image for the button? For example if I want the link to a Twitter account then I can use the twitter logo in each cell to be clicked?
Please let me know.
Regards,
Ruben
Hi again Ruben
Sure, you can do that with custom CSS, so you don't need to set the column as a URL, but instead as multi-line string.
When you add the column as a string, you will need to define the URL with an anchor tag. For example to open the link in a new tab, add the URL and the target:
After it, add the URL to the image, setting its size to be small enough to fit nicely in the cell:
So, to get a cell that looks like this, and takes the user to Huawei's Twitter profile:
You would need to use this code:
I hope that helps.
