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!

    Hello,

    To begin, I want to extend my heartfelt apologies for the delayed reply, 

    which is due to an unexpectedly high volume of inquiries. 

    We truly value your patience during this period.

    If you have one link per cell,  perhaps the easiest way is to use our URL Columns.

    They have specific rendering rules :

    Rendering rules: If the content of the cells contains a combination of “two sticks” – || – everything to the left of this combination is used as an URL address for the link, and everything to the right as displayed text. For example:

    https://wpdatatables.com||Check out wpDataTables

    will be rendered as: Check out wpDataTables

    If the “||” combination is not found in the content, the entire content will be used both for the link and as the display value. 

    For example: https://wpdatatables.com 

    will be rendered as: https://wpdatatables.com


    The same rendering rules apply if you manually input the values in an Editable Table, or if you link a table from a Data Source like CSV/Excel/Google Sheets, then in your source cells you need to format them like that.

    Alternatively, you can use String Columns.

    They can render custom HTML,  in that case, you would have to wrap the links in the source data as HTML anchor tags, for example :

    <a href="https://www.w3schools.com">Visit W3Schools.com!</a>
    

    will be rendered as hyperlink of displayed text : " Visit W3Schools.com! "

     if you use String Columns, you will also be able to have multiple links in the same cell,  and combinations or images with links, etc ( if needed).

    Let me know if that makes sense, and if you have any questions. Thankssmile.png


    Kind Regards,
