Bypassing wpDataTable's SQL query generator and passing queries to PHPMyAdmin
Closed

  • Alan started the conversation

    We are developing a WordPress website that produces, maintains, and reports on MySQL tables in a secondary database (not wpdb) and employs "Junction Tables" (tables with multiple foreign keys and intersection data) to join "Master" and "Reference" tables for its display, reporting, and maintenance functions.  In several instances, we need to join two or more Master or Reference tables through a Junction table  

    It seems these requirements are beyond the capabilities of the wpDataTables query generator.  Is there a way to bypass the query generator and directly enter our queries through wpDataTables to PHPMyAdmin so that we could work with  the query result sets in wpDataTables and take advantage of its presentation, filtering, popup, and export capabilities?  

    We have loaded our database with live data and tested and verified our queries with PHPMyAdmin and MySQL Workbench.  We anticipate we would also need guidance on how to apply short codes, actions, or filters to result sets and popups (if they can be hooked) to further process the result sets from certain queries.

    Thank you,

    Hi, Alan.

    I can see that this is a duplicate ticket, and we already covered this topic in another ticket:

    https://tmsplugins.ticksy.com/ticket/3372005/

    For future reference, please don't open multiple tickets with the same topic, as it wastes your and our time trying to either find a response twice (if, for example, my colleague responded on another ticket already) or inform you that the ticket has been submitted more than once.

    We go through tickets in the order in which they are received and/or responded to, so creating multiple tickets will only increase our queue, it will not speed anything up. We try to be as fast as possible, so thank you for your patience.

    If you have any questions or concerns about another topic, please feel free to open a new ticket, and we'll gladly help you out.

    Thank you for your understanding.

    Kind Regards, 

    Miloš Jovanović
