I'm creating a table from a Formidable Forms form and would like to add a column in wpDataTables with a custom URL or Button with a URL link targeting and passing parameters related to a row of the table to a page of my site.
I can do this with a SQL table/view when I build up a custom URL, but it doesn't look like I can do this with a FF form as the source of my table?
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.

Hi Rudi,
yes - unfortunately something like this, adding a column to an existing table,
is not possible with any table which is linked to an existing /live data source,
such as Formidable Forms.
Adding a new column through our Plugin is only possible with our Manual Tables.
For any other table type, as you know, adding a custom Link column is only possible via an SQL Query based table,
if you add SQL CONCAT function in your SQL Table.
Other than that, at the moment we do not have any workaround.
You can make a development suggestion, but i honestly don't think this will be possible any time soon.
Please feel free to search on our suggestions page,
