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!

wpDataTables as a Stocks Watchlist?
Closed

    I love wpDataTables and it is working great for us but I have a general usage question regarding wpDataTables as a watchlist for stocks.

    Is it possible for wpDataTables to be configured so each user can enter the unique list of stocks they are following and then retrieve that list (table) in future sessions based on their login?  Our code would take care of updating each individual table row with the appropriate stock quote but we would like wpDataTables to handle each user entering their unique list of stocks and storing them for later retrieval.

    Is that possible?

    Thx,

    Gary

    Hello Gary

    For users to enter their data, and have that data linked to their User ID, you would need to enable "users see and edit only own data", so their ID is automatically added to an integer column.

    Then, you would be able to retrieve that table on the page, showing only the data they've added, without being able to see other people's data.

    If you want to allow them to see all data, you would be able to do it in a separate table, using an SQL query. The "MySQL table name for Editing" would be copied from the first table (manual table) - from the Editing tab above the table, and a new SQL table would be created, like:

    SELECT * FROM wp_wpdatatable_15

    That table would display all data.

    Kind Regards,
