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,
Can you show us some screenshots or a Video, or if you can copy and paste one of the image cell data, so that we can see how are you formatting the image links in your Source SQL Database Table?
1. For example, if you are just storing it in the cell(s) as the image URL, such as :
In this case, you can use our Image Column, just please check more details explained on the rendering rules of our Image Columns here.
We will copy the important details here :
“Image” link columns are used to render images in the table, either in full size, or as a link from a thumbnail to a full size image.
If the “||” combination is not found in the content, the entire content will be used as a link to a full-size image.
2. Or, if you are storing the image data with complete HTML with the image tag, for example like :
In that case, you need to use our String Columns, because this type of Column renders custom HTML.
To summarize, Image columns automatically create the Image HTML around your image source URL, and you can combine the thumbnail URL with two stick symbol followed by full sized image URL;
and you will be able to use Lightbox ( only with server-side disabled);
Or if you try String Columns - then your source cell needs to have the Image HTML around the image URL for it to work.

Let me know if that helps?
If not, please show us more details how do you format your image cells in the SQL.
Thanks.
Kind Regards,
Miloš Jovanović
