I am having trouble using WPDataTabes with the Advanced Custom Feilds plugin. I have my original page and using Wptables I can display a table on this page just fine using shortcode that is entered into the default content area of Wordpress.
Next using an ACF post object I want to display the table from the original page onto a second page. Using this process I hope to have many single pages with WPDataTables on them all pulled together into one page using ACF post objects.
The issue is once pulled onto the second page by ACF the DataTable no longer displays. Only the short code used to create the table is shown, not the table itself.
How can I get the full table after it has been pulled through the post object?
You would need to create a custom query that'd return the data you need. Using our query constructor pulls the data from WordPress database, but ACFs data can also be stored in the MySQL database, so try using that generator.
We cannot help you with the custom query, though, as included support doesn't cover custom queries, and we don't have native integration with ACF, so you'd need to locate the data you need in the database, and then pull it using that custom query.
Do let us know if there is anything else we can assist you with.
