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!

    Hi, I was browsing the demos of wpdatatables and I'm really impressed.

    I'm launching a data service and looking for a solution just like this. Because I have 500k+ entries in databases, I have few questions on limitations:

    1. Is is possible to disable "Show All entries"?

    2. Is it possible to enable Sorting only for displayed data, not for the whole database?

    3. Is it possible to show tables only to registered users? I understand that I can hide the page containing the shortcode, but I believe that logged off users can still manually query database thru admin-ajax.php

    Thanks much!

    Hi Vahe

    Thank you for reaching out to us.

    1. You can use this hook: wpdatatables_filter_table_description

    add_filter( 'wpdatatables_filter_table_description', 'verse_show_entries', 10, 3 );
    function verse_show_entries( $object, $table_id, $wpDataTableOBJ ){
        $object->dataTableParams->aLengthMenu = array(
            array(
                10,
                25,
                50,
                75,
                100
            ),
            array(
                10,
                25,
                50,
                75,
                100
            )
        );
        return $object;
    }

    Add it to the functions.php file of your theme, or child theme, and it will not be affected by the plugin's updates.

    2. I'm afraid you can only set sorting for the entire column, not only the displayed data.

    3. Unfortunately this cannot be achieved using the plugin's builtin features.

    I'll kindly ask you to add it as a feature suggestion on this page. 

    Features are pushed up on our "to-do" list when there are a lot of customers requesting those features, so having your vote as a customer can be beneficial to this feature being developed sooner.

    It probably can 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:

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