We would like to create a shortcode for our charts in the same way that we create placeholders in the shortcode for wp-datatables.
We would like to create a shortcode in the form: [wpdatachart id=11 var1=1] so that we can display our charts without the need to display the datatable (and having the chart to follow the datatable).
Last but not least may I remind you that it has been almost a year since the request to provide in the grouped display to have the option to show the averages rather than the sum of what has been grouped - something that is far more valuable to most.
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.

1. At this time, it is not possible to pass variables/placeholders for charts, as we can do for tables in shortcodes.
The data coming for the charts will only load the default values before any filtering/sorting takes place,
unless if we place the source table on same page with the chart, and activate "Follow table filtering",
in that case any filtering/sorting we do on the table, the chart would follow it on the fly.
But this is an interesting suggestion for the future, we can pass it to our developers.
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.

Thank you for this feedback.
We realise that this feature will be important for a certain number of users, and we follow all the requested features.
Depending on the difficulty of development combined by the number of users that request for a certain feature/improvement,
our developers are then given tasks by management,
and we do our best to change priorities accordingly.
We have checked, but unfortunately, we are not able to promise an ETA on when the option to show the averages rather than the sum of what has been grouped might be added to the plugin.
We will do our best to work on that in the near future, as soon as possible.
We will keep using this, passing the placeholder value by dynamically creating a shortcode (that contains the desired placeholder value) to the table and then possibly hidding the table to the end users.
For the second one, I will do it for you and will send you back the code and I hope you just integrate the option to it (I will only do the by default averaging, because in my project it is the average that matters).
yes - that should work for the time being, with the possibility of hiding the table completely, or alternatively leaving just the table filters for users, to have that "follow table filtering" effect without the table ( if needed).

That would be absolutely amazing, we will be very grateful and of course, our developers would do their best to integrate your solution with the plugin's core , as well.
Let us know when you work on that, how it goes, and of course, you can share the code with us if you wish.
And as you know, if you send any kind of sensitive information, make sure to mark reply as Private.

Thank you Milos. We did it like this
