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!
What would be the most simple and effective way to track filter selections of datatable made by visitor?
1. track by google tags and view in analytics? Recommended method?
2. scan all filter options after every selection by JS and store in database or wpdatadables?
Hello, Miroslav.
Firstly, I would like to sincerely apologize for the delayed response as we have been experiencing an unusually high number of tickets. I am sorry that it has taken longer than usual to respond to your concern and your patience is highly appreciated.
- We would recommend Google Analytics as the best option, but mixpanel is also a great choice.
Please contact us further if you need anything else regarding this.
Kind Regards,
Miloš Jovanović

Thanks. I was not asking for a system to track but for the method how to catch checkbox selection by JS.
1. Is there a way to read current filter values the visitor has selected via JS? E.g. accessing the wpDataTables Object?
2.How to read the value a visitor has typed in the search box via JS?
Hi, Miroslav
- Sorry about that, I didn't understand exactly what you needed at first.
- We don't store the data which the user inputs into the filters; that data is being passed to the server(if it is a server-side table),
or passed to the database engine(if not server-side).
- Every filter has its own logic, if you wish you can see that in this JS file :
wp-content/plugins/wpdatatables/assets/js/wpdatatables/wdt.columnFilter.js
- That being said, something like this perhaps might be done with some custom solution
but is not part of our technical support for the plugin.
We can recommend reaching out to WPKraken, but we don't know their prices for custom work.
Apologies that we are not able to help you fully construct a solution for this.
Kind Regards,
Miloš Jovanović

Thanks. I have done it by myself.
In case someone is interested in the solution:
1. add $(document).click(function(event) { //magic here }); and check if event.target hasClass "checkbox"
2. toggleClass "checked" to this event.taget
3. after every click get all elements with Class "checked"
4. dont forget to reset "checked" classes after pressing the reset filter buttons
Hope it helps someone
Hi, Miroslav.
Thank you very much ;
I will pass this to our developers, to have it handy when the opportunity to help someone with this arises. Or if someone searches for it in public tickets, they will find it here.
Thanks again for the contribution.
Kind Regards,
