I understand WPDatatables main point is to create tables and graphs to display on the front end for users. However I would like to understand one thing.
We currently use Excel to manage our store inventory, however it is very hard to constantly synchronize all this data with the server and wocommerce.
So it would be amazing to have some type of Excel / Spreadsheet editor within wordpress that we could use to edit product data directly so that we can update products (descriptions, stock, custom fields, make automatic calculations with formula columns etc).
Is it possible to use WPDatatables for this? to edit and update product information from the admin control panel? I could not find any usecase on this
Thank you in advance for your attention and advice
I don't know if you'd be creating this table manually, or pulling the data from WooCommerce's database. If it's the latter, you would be able to create an SQL Query based table, where you would pull the data from Woo's database. Depending on the complexity of a query, you may not be able to edit this table.
If you're creating a table manually, there're no limitations here since manual tables can be edited normally.
