Hey there, Awesome Customers!
Just a heads up: We'll be taking a breather to celebrate International Workers' Day (May 1st and 2nd - Wednesday and Thursday) and Orthodox Easter from Good Friday (May 3rd) through Easter Monday (May 6th). So, from May 1st to May 6th, our team will be off enjoying some well-deserved downtime.
During this time, our customer support will be running on a smaller crew, but don't worry! We'll still be around to help with any urgent matters, though it might take us a bit longer than usual to get back to you.
We'll be back in action at full throttle on May 7th (Tuesday), ready to tackle your questions and requests with gusto!
In the meantime, you can explore our documentation for Amelia and wpDataTables. You'll find loads of helpful resources, including articles and handy video tutorials on YouTube (Amelia's YouTube Channel and wpDataTables' YouTube Channel). These gems might just have the answers you're looking for while we're kicking back.
Thanks a bunch for your understanding and support!
Catch you on the flip side!
Warm regards,
TMS

Hi, Mike and Stephie.
1. First we will comment about pulling data from Custom Fields/posts in our dataTables.
As the custom posts/fields, are a part of the WordPress database;
pulling this data can only be done through MySQL query-based tables.
Please note: Using this plugin feature requires at least a basic knowledge of SQL. It is assumed that you can create the table in some MySQL data manager (e.g., PHPMyAdmin, MySQL Workbench), and prepare a SQL query that will return the data you need.
A good way to achieve this can be experimenting using our WPDB SQL Query Constructor tool.
- Please note: this tool is not an ultimate query generator. It simply constructs a suggestion of a query. We are constantly working to improve it, but SQL is such a complicated and flexible language that full automation for constructing queries is next to impossible.
Consequently, the more complicated the query, the higher is the probability that it will not return exactly what you need. So, you will often need to play around with the resulting query.
Please be advised that writing custom SQL Queries or debugging Queries does not fall under what our support covers.
You can check out this official page of WP codex, for help with writing custom Queries.
2. We need to edit certain fields - like client notes :
- Here you can see how to make Editable tables in our plugin.
Please note these limitations on editing tables with wpDataTables.
3.
I am sorry, but I did not understand what you mean by the grid;
do you have any working example of anything similar to that, or if you can at least elaborate more, what kind of grid would that be and what is the expected behaviour from our tables in this use-case?
4. We need to understand how to make some columns appear on the table but other columns on the grid
- As in the previous point, I am not sure which "grid" you are referring to.
If you could elaborate on that, please.
Thank you.
Kind Regards,
Miloš Jovanović
