I have recently installed wpDataTables in my Wordpress site. I am wanting to create a front end searchable tool for my site. I have a list of member ID's that I want the user to be able to request an ID from and it return an array of information on that user based on fields in the data. How do I go about this?
The search option in wpDataTables only looks through the table it belongs to, so if you place the table on front-end, and enable the Search field, users on front-end would be able to search through that table.
I'm sorry to disappoint you, but this can't be done - one search can only search through the table it belongs to. wpDataTables doesn't have multiple sheets per table, so this is not possible.

Hello Matt
Thank you for your purchase.
The search option in wpDataTables only looks through the table it belongs to, so if you place the table on front-end, and enable the Search field, users on front-end would be able to search through that table.
It doesn't require any additional settings.

How could search multiple tables or create a table with multiple sheets like excel and search in all at once
