We just purchased the wpDatatables plugin but we need the wpdatatables to work with our Gravity forms in WordPress. Do we have to purchase both or could we just purchase the lifetime Gravity Forms Integration plugin? Would we do and exchange or will you have to refund then we purchase the new plugin?
Each form has its fields, so if you have a text field in the form, where people write in the Items, with the Gravity Forms add-on, you would get to choose which field(s) will be included in the table. It could be one field, but it could be all.
I suppose you would be able to do it without the add-on, using a custom SQL query, but that wouldn't be a simple query because Gravity Forms stores its data into multiple database tables. So, you would need to combine multiple tables to pull the field's name, and content.
Writing a query like this is not included in the provided support, and due to its complexity we've developed the add-on. You can even test the add-on, on our Sandbox Site before purchase, to see if it works for you.
I looked at the Demo site but I cannot fully test it because it times out before I get to finish create my example. I understand that I using the plugin I can create a table from the entries in the gravity form. That part is good. What I'm trying to do is like have a relational database type setup. For every one Gravity for submission I want to be able to add several entries in a table that will hold the product information. I have another plugin that will allow ne to nest a form in a Gravity form so I'm thinking that I can have one gravity form house the multiples product entries and another form that holds the main entry and is submitted once. Just like an Access database hold customers and then showing the orders that a customer have main.
With the Gravity Forms integration add-on, you can't achieve this, because it can only create one table at a time, so linking between tables is not possible with this add-on.
If you have a plugin that simplifies Gravity's tables in the database, you would be able to create tables using SQL queries, and then use foreign keys to link them together.
You would be able to edit data coming from one Gravity Forms based table, but no relation between other tables can be established.

Hello Keith
Thank you for your purchase.
Gravity Forms integration for wpDataTables is an add-on which requires both wpDataTables and Gravity Forms installed in order to work.
The add-on allows you to create a table from existing Gravity Forms, and it is not a substitute for the full Gravity Forms plugin.
Kind Regards,
