Shortcodes in columns
Closed

  • Jeremy started the conversation

    I just purchased WPDataTables and the Formidable Integration today, because I found the Formidable Views to be too limiting.

    However, I need to be able to use shortcodes to:

    1. Modify field values before they are displayed in a column, by passing a static parameter to the formidable field code, e.g. [x sep=", "] or [created-at time_ago=1] or custom parameters such as [x decrypt=1].

    2. Add custom columns that use other formidable shortcodes such as [display-frm-data] and [frmmodal-content], possibly passing them a variable using a value from another column.

    Given that field shortcodes are a core part of formidable forms functionality, I assumed that the [x] field shortcodes would be editable during column set up.

    Is this not possible?

    Thank you

    Hi Jeremy

    Thank you for reaching out to us

    Parsing shortcodes in string-type cells works for some shortcodes, but unfortunately it doesn't work for all of them.

    Something like this has not been attempted before (at least not that we're aware of) so we won't be able to say if it would be possible even using some custom work, but we can recommend these services for customization:

    I’m afraid that WP DataTables and the Formidable plug-in aren’t going to meet my requirements. How would I go about requesting a refund, please?

    Hi Jeremy

    We are sorry to hear that but we completely understand.

    Please log in to http://store.tms-plugins.com/ and under "My Licenses" click on the Three Dots on the right-hand side of the license you want to submit a refund request for:

    If you don't see it, that means that the 15-day money-back guarantee period ended, and as per our refund policies (Amelia Refund PolicywpDataTables Refund Policy), you're no longer eligible for a refund. After you submit a refund request, you will not receive any confirmation emails, but you will see that the button is grayed out:

    That means that the refund request is successfully submitted and that you will receive your refund in 5 - 7 business days.
