We're Moving to a New Support Platform – Starting June 1st!

We’re excited to let you know that starting June 1st, we’ll be transitioning to a new support system that will be available directly on our product websites – Amelia, wpDataTables, and Report Builder. In fact, the new support platform is already live for Amelia and wpDataTables, and we encourage you to reach out to us there.

You'll always be able to reach us through a widget in the bottom right corner of each website, where you can ask questions, report issues, or simply get assistance.

While we still do not offer live support, a new advanced, AI-powered assistant, trained on our documentation, use cases, and real conversations with our team, is there to help with basic to intermediate questions in no time.

We're doing our best to make this transition smooth and hassle-free. After June 1st, this current support website will redirect you to the new "Contact Us" pages on our product sites.

Thanks for your continued support and trust – we’re excited to bring you an even better support experience!

    I am building a registration form that has the normal user info (that I do not need to call on this table) plus a bunch of sections below that I do want to call like:

    What is your T-Shirt Size?    Short Paragraph        shirt_size
What local market are you based out of?    Short Paragraph        local_market
Are you willing to travel?     Radio Button       willing_to_travel


    I want to build a table where my project managers can search the list of employees based on the meta key criteria.

    How do I find the meta key in the WP data tables? (shirt_size,  local_market, etc)

    Thanks!

    Hi, Jordan.

    Sorry to disappoint you, but for something like this, a custom SQL Query is needed to pull the metadata as you described, our support is not able to cover writing or debugging custom Queries,

    but we will do our best to advise.

    -

    As the custom posts/fields and metadata 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.


    Kind Regards,
