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!
Hello,
(How) Can I set a different % width for different columns in a wpDataTable depending on the screen size in which they are viewed?
Thank you!
Hi again Sebastian
Like mentioned in the other ticket, this can't be done with any built-in features of the plugin, and would have to be done manually with some custom code.
Changing the width of columns is only possible if you disable the "Scrollable" feature in the "Display" tab above the table, and enable "Limit table width". When you do that, a new option (Column Width) will appear in column settings, but this will be applied to desktops.
Making it work in the same way for mobiles and tablets, you'd need to include custom media queries.
Kind Regards,
Aleksandar Vuković

Thank you for clarifying.
(How) Can I use media queries to set different column width on a column-by-column basis depending on screen size?
Hi again Sebastian
I can only give you an example, but writing custom code is not included in the provided support for the plugin, so I can't help you with it in more detail.
You can add a custom CSS class to a column (for example "smallscreen"). Then, in Custom CSS section of the Customize tab above the table (or in Custom CSS in wpDataTables Settings), you can add something like this:
th applies to the header, and td applies to the rows.
So, this CSS will change the width of the column that has "smallscreen" custom CSS class, on screens lower than 600px.
Kind Regards,

Understood. This is very useful and exactly what I need.
Thank you for your guidance as I'm not overly familiar with css.
You're welcome, Sebastian
Glad I could be of service.
If you have any further questions or issues, please feel free to open a new ticket, and we'll gladly help.
