Hi! I am trying to figure out if there is any way to have a filter on one page, and then once the selections have been made, the user is taken to a prefiltered version of the table on another page? We basically want to have the filter on the homepage, but don't want the table to actually populate on the homepage. Hopefully that makes sense! Thanks!
to see if someone may be already suggested this feature. If you can't see it, feel free to add your suggestion there, and as more people vote, the feature will move higher on the priority list.
You can certainly follow our changeLog page if you'd like ( it is also available in the plugin dashboard), where we state any changes/new features/bug fixes during updates;
and our newsletter, so you're informed about new features, bug fixes, freebies, etc.
-
At this time, the only way to redirect users to a prefiltered table can be done with our URL prefiltering feature;
but that would require clicking into an URL, and you would have to already set the filters - the user can't select them "on the fly", so it would not be the solution that you need.
-
If you need a solution for it now, maybe it can be done with a high level of custom work, but I am not sure, to be honest. 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 the near future.
We can recommend reaching out to someone who does custom solutions, such as WP Kraken, but we can't advise on their pricing.

No problem at all, i am happy to advise
Yes - i was not sure at first, to be honest, it is quite an interesting query.
But as you see - we will do our best to add the feature, as soon as possible.
