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 would like to filter a table that has dates less than or equal to %TODAY%.
Is this possible?
Use case....
I would like to allow a user to upload attachments (job advertisements) with another field being an expiration date.
When the public views the table, I want to filter out anything that has expired.
So I ended up making a table that would be the parent table
Then I made an sql table that would query the parent table base on the Variable of %CURRENT_DATE%
It would be simpler and cleaner if the filter default values allowed the use of a variable. If there is another way, let me know.
Hello Barry
I am sorry to disappoint you, but unfortunately, something like this is not possible with the plugin's built-in features.
The date filter can only be a date range, and unfortunately you can't include filters that are <, <, >, > than %TODAY%.
I would also suggest using an SQL query to create a child table that would filter this and post that table on the front-end.
Kind Regards,
Aleksandar Vuković
