    i have wpDataTables and master detail.

    I know that it is possible to display a table with some of the data, and a click can redirect to a new page with all the data using master-table. The question is whether it is possible to edit this data by the master-table page?

    Hi Yaron

    Thank you for reaching out to us.

    Only wpDT tables have the function of front end editing so only if there is a wpDT table you want to edit you can place it on the same page.

    What you are looking for might be done with some custom work, but our developers are very busy at the moment, working on some priority tasks and fixing bugs and issues with our plugins, so they won't be having the time for custom work in near future.

    But we can recommend these services for customization:

    https://codeable.io/?ref=l1TW1

    https://wpkraken.io/?tms-plugins

    They do develop such solutions, so can you please send your inquiry to them?

    Hi Blaženka, to do dev we can do, the whole point of getting this plugin was not to do any dev.

    But, if i redirect to new page and design it to pull the date using shortcode %data% how can i pull it from html? i've tried and it's not really working.

    Hi Yaron

    Unfortunately this is a limitation of the plugin. You can suggest it as a feature on this page and our developers will consider it for a future update. I will forward this to our Level 2 to see if there is a workaround we can provide. We will get back to you with more information.

    Thank you for your time and patience.

    Hello Yaron

    Unfortunately, the Master-Detail add-on is only used to display the data, and there's no way you can edit it through the add-on.

    Also, at the moment, there's no way you can share a link to the Master-Detail page, and access the detail directly, using the link. It is only accessible by clicking on the button, or a row in the table. Our developers had a yearly planning session last week, and this was discussed.

    They will work on a single-cell shortcode, and they will see how it can be used in combination with Master-Detail, so you could at least get a URL of the Master-Detail page without having to click through the table, but I can't say when that will become available. It's planned, but for when I cannot say.

    Kind Regards,
