Hi, Kathy 

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.

-

You are correct.  In order to use Gravity Integration, you would need to also purchase our premium main plugin wpDataTables.

-

Before purchase you can test all plugin and Add-on features combined on our sandbox site here.

-

In regards to filtering the table, and this to reflect a chart , yes -  this can be achieved if you place the connected table on same page as its chart,

and if you enable "Follow table filtering" on the chart.

This feature is available on all of our charts.

And we also have a little custom workaround, in case if you need to hide the table, and only leave the filters with the chart visible.

( let me know if you need that)

-

You can check out all the available chart engines and examples of wpDataCharts documentation here : 

Examples of tables and charts;

Charts.JS

HighCharts

Google charts

Apex charts

-

And just wanted to say, there is a 15-day money-back guarantee period, So if you purchase the plugin, you can safely fully test it out, and if it doesn't fit your needs you can request and receive a refund in that period. ( same goes for all plugins and add-ons)

-

Let me know if you have any questions Thanks

Hi, Kathy

You're welcome, i am happy to help.

1.

I have to tell you something right away, and I think this is the issue for editing.

If you agree, let's get that one out of the way first, to fix editing for you.

Currently, there is a  conflict between our plugin and GravityEdit plugin/add-on. ( I can see that you have it in the plugin list)

If this is not crucial for you - you can simply disable that plugin, and you won't have issues.

But, if it is crucial, and you need it active,   then you can edit this code in our plugin:

In the PhP file in this path :

wp-content/plugins/wdt-gravity-integration/wdt-gravity-integration.php:  around line 1346 you will find :

include \GFCommon::get_base_path() . '/entry_detail.php';
include \GFCommon::get_base_path() . '/form_display.php';
include WDT_GF_ROOT_PATH . 'templates/edit_modal.php';

Then, replace that with this :

if ( ! class_exists( 'GFEntryDetail' ) ) {     require_once \GFCommon::get_base_path() . '/entry_detail.php';
}
if ( ! class_exists( 'GFFormDisplay' ) ) {     require_once \GFCommon::get_base_path() . '/form_display.php';
}
require_once WDT_GF_ROOT_PATH . 'templates/edit_modal.php';

-

Our developers will work to add a fix for this,

we hope they should be able to build a fix in time for the next update,

 but we can't guarantee an exact ETA,

because first, they will have to do a lot of testing before implementing it as part of the core plugin.

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.

-

Let me know how this goes

2.

That is correct, the Excel-like table editor has certain limitations.

and it can not hide columns.

Please check all its limitations here.

3.

Regarding the loop, this is the same issue as the first point, the conflict with Gravity Edit plugin/add on.

4.

Our calculation functions are not going to create/add anything to the Form itself.

The wpDataTables that are linked to file source,  this does not make a new table in the database, and it does not add this calculation to the Form itself;

but rather it creates data that is in JSON format,  and it is stored in our database table wp_wpdatatables_rows.

-

And if you need the SUM of a column in charts, sorry to disappoint you - but currently it is not possible to pass any calculations to charts.

-

Let me know if I missed any detail/ did not cover something.

And let me know how it goes with the most important point, number 1.

Thank you

Hi, Kathy 

You're welcome, i am happy to help

- Let me know when you check everything,  if the editing issue is now resolved.

And if you have any additional questions for everything that we covered so far.

Thank you

Hi, Kathy 

That is strange, so far we had another user who had the same conflict/issue with the Gravity Edit plugin,

but for him, this code has worked.

-

If you wish, we can try to apply it for you,  but we don't wish to mess up your live/production site,

so if this is a live site,   then it will be safest to make a Test/Staging version of the site,

then we can try to apply this workaround code for you?

-

Would you be able to provide us with a staging site, along with WP-admin (Administrator) user, FTP, and the database, so our developers can debug the plugin, and see what's going on?

If you're not able to provide us with a staging site, can you clone your website?

If yes - I'll ask you to install the Duplicator plugin. It will generate a couple of files that you can send me (along with the log-in credentials), and then I can create an exact copy of your website, see what the issue is and try to resolve it.

The Duplicator plugin can export only up to 500MB of data, so if your site is bigger than that, please use the All-in-One WP Migration plugin.

Please note that the files will be too large to attach to the ticket, so you can upload them via wetransfer.com and just send me the link.

( If you send us any credentials, or duplicator files, make sure to reply in a Private message)
