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!

    The text in the column "Beschreibung" is cut off after a specific amount of characters. I cannot find a way to avoid this. I would like to have an option to limit the number of lines to 5 and end the last line with an ellipsis if possible.

    thanks,
    Martin

    Hi Martin

    Thank you for reaching out to us. 

    How are you creating the table? If it is a table created by importing data from an existing data source you can try creating a new column, but make it multi-line string. If the text is longer than 255 characters, that could be causing the issue because single-line strings are VARCHAR with 255 character limit, while multi-line strings are TEXT with around 65.000 character limit.

    You can either create a new table and set the column type to Multi-line string, or you will need to find this column in the database, and change its type from VARCHAR(255) to TEXT.
