Hey there, Awesome Customers!

Just a heads up: We'll be taking a breather to celebrate International Workers' Day (May 1st and 2nd - Wednesday and Thursday) and Orthodox Easter from Good Friday (May 3rd) through Easter Monday (May 6th). So, from May 1st to May 6th, our team will be off enjoying some well-deserved downtime.

During this time, our customer support will be running on a smaller crew, but don't worry! We'll still be around to help with any urgent matters, though it might take us a bit longer than usual to get back to you.

We'll be back in action at full throttle on May 7th (Tuesday), ready to tackle your questions and requests with gusto!

In the meantime, you can explore our documentation for Amelia and wpDataTables. You'll find loads of helpful resources, including articles and handy video tutorials on YouTube (Amelia's YouTube Channel and wpDataTables' YouTube Channel). These gems might just have the answers you're looking for while we're kicking back.

Thanks a bunch for your understanding and support!

Catch you on the flip side!

Warm regards,

TMS

Change the place of the filters to customize the layout

    Hello, 

    I would like to change the place of the advanced filters on my table. 

    As you can see on the screenshot i have a big white space between the filters and the begining of the table. 

    I saw on some example in your doc that sometimes the filters and integrated within the table and not like this super far away. 

    Idealy, i would like to have the modal buttons for each collumn directly under the header and remove the labels of the filters. 

    How can i do that?

    Sincerely, 

    Alex

    Hi Warzone_Loadout

    Thank you for reaching out to us.

    You can change the default position of the filters from wpDataTables - Settings - Render advanced filter but make sure to disable the Show filters in a form above the table

    Hello, 

    Thank you, this worked. 

    How can i change the backgroung color of the tables?

    Basically on this picture i would like to remove the white that is not at all aligned with my design chart. And also, i toggle grouped by a collumn, but as the font is white on white i can see it...

    You are most welcomesmile.png

    If you want to change the colors beyond what is offered in the customize tab in the table and wpDT settings  you will need to play around with some custom CSS. For example here is how you can make the table background transparent:

    I haven't tested this on a live site, but this CSS should work:

    To make rows transparent:

    .wpDataTablesWrapper table.wpDataTable td {
    background-color: transparent !important;
    }

    To make the headers transparent:

    .wpDataTablesWrapper table.wpDataTable th {
    background-color: transparent !important;
    }

    Hello, 

    Thank you for your answer but the CSS is not working as i am not able to make the backround of the overall table transparent (header and body). 

    i use you css code that i put in the custom CSS tab of the customize tab in the table. 

    Also, could you please tell me how i could use a font that i installed on my theme but not showing in the list of fonts in the customize tab of the table? 

    Sincerely, 

    Alex

    Unfortunately we do not provide support for customization I can share only examples that we have and they often need to be modified.

    There's no way of applying the custom font with built-in features, so you would need to do it with custom CSS.

    Here is an example we can share, if you want it applied on all tables you can add it in wpDataTabes - Settings - Custom CSS:

    .wpDataTablesWrapper table.wpDataTable td {
    font-family: Marine-Light!important;
    }
    .wpDataTablesWrapper table.wpDataTable th {
    font-family: Marine-Light!important;
    }


     Anything that is not included in the plugin's core and counts as customization we can recommend these services to assist you with:
