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!
I love the capability of filtering visible, editable data based on user id. I've turned that on, but selected to show all rows in the admin panel. However, as the admin I'm not able to edit the table itself with these settings. Is it possible to allow an admin to edit any part of the table but restrict other users to editing only records with their user id?
Hi again Lucas
You would be able to edit that specific table only if you disable the "Users see and edit their own data", but there may be a better way.
Copy the "MySQL table name" from the Editing tab above this table, and create a new SQL query-based table using that name. For example, if the "Users see and edit their own data" table is wp_wpdatatable_1, create a new table linked to an existing data source -> MySQL:
You can use this table as the Admin table in the backend, and do all editing through it. The original table will only display the values of the MySQL query-based table and you wouldn't need to turn the setting on and off.
Kind Regards,
Aleksandar Vuković

Thank you, Aleksander! When I realized that I could create a second table querying the SQL database created by the first table, the solution you described became apparent.
A limitation I've found is that if I add a column to the original table I need to delete and regenerate the Admin version. Not a big deal, I just have to keep that in mind as I go.
You're welcome, Lucas!
If you have any further questions or issues, please feel free to open a new ticket, and we'll gladly help.
