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
Is there a developer article or some article which can help me with filtering of columns.
I want to have a dropdown or multiselect of columns names and user can select few of them and datatable will show that much of data in front end.
Rest wpdatatable and its advance filtering works for me but this one is where i am stuck at.
Hello Fahim
Thank you for your purchase.
I'm not sure that I understand your request fully. If I'm not mistaken, you want to pass only a certain number of columns to the front-end while keeping the entire table structure in the back-end?
If that's true, something like this is not possible with the plugin's built-in features, as the plugin is a WYSIWYG (What You See Is What You Get) concept-based plugin. This means that the table should look the same both in the back-end and in the front-end. So, the columns you see in the front-end are the same columns you see in the back-end.
You can create a few tables using the same source (MySQL query-based tables), where you would pull only certain columns, and then use the shortcodes of those newly created tables to display different tables (with different columns) in the front-end.
Kind Regards,
Aleksandar Vuković

Its a simple table and we are passing all columns in front end.
User wants to see few columns of its choice in front end so that he see a more compact view and can enter data easily in excell like view.
Is there a option to choose columns in front and fix few columns which cant be removed ... I hope i am clear enough.
Please close this ticket i was able to get the column visibility at front end.
