    Hello, I need help setting up a functionality that I need wpdatatables to handle. Currently, I am displaying a table from a Google Sheet that is going to be updated regularly. I need a button that users can click added to each row that will take another value in that row and add it to a Gravity Form field on the same page. Is this possible?

    Hi, Chris.

    If i understood, you have  a table that is linked with a source Google Sheet,

    and you need the output table to reflect editing of the source Google Sheet?

    -

    But now you would like to add a button in this table,  that when clicked by a user will take another value in that row and add it to a Gravity Form field on the same page?

    I am truly sorry to disappoint you, but at the moment something like this is not possible with our plugin.

    -

    When you have a table linked to source Google Sheet, it can not be editable from our plugin,

    and what you described with this custom button and functionality to add a value from a Google Spreadsheet table to Gravity Form,

    that is also not possible.

    You can make a suggestion for our developers, but i honestly don't think that something like this will be possible anytime soon.  They will do their best to work on it in the future, though.

    Please feel free to search on our suggestions page

     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.

    If you have coding skills and wish to try to make a custom solution now,

    you can check out our available hooks for Developers on this documentation and see if you can find any hook that might help.

    Please be advised that custom solutions with hooks are not included in our support.

    You can also research resources such as Stack Overflow to see if any other user perhaps found a workaround.

    ( We do like to give examples for certain solutions, but for this use-case, we, unfortunately, don't have anything yet)

    Kind Regards,
