    I don't see the "CONFIGURE RELATION..." button that iss shown at https://wpdatatables.com/documentation/front-end-editing/configuring-table-relations-foreign-key/.


    Again, my wpDataTables are based on Forminator forms, not direct MySql database tables.

    Hi Eric

    Thank you for reaching out to us.

    Can you please confirm you have the plugin updated to its latest version?

    What column type would you like to use to foreign key with? Can you share a screenshot of what you see?

    I took a closer look and found the data is NOT json.  So looks like I have to use mySQL string functions.  Appreciate it if you have written query for that.  If you use Forminator API, then I guess then i cannot use from my SQL query.

    Hi Eric

    To configure a foreign key the column type should be changed to string, as mentioned in our documentation

    Thanks Blazenka.  I don't believe you currently have a solution to join two Forminator forms.  It will be great if you can raise a request to your DEV team.  In the meantime, please close this ticket.
