I am trialing DataTables as a solution to an application I am developing. I really would like to use the plugin and will purchase a full license, however, I am running into a challenge.
Is it possible to create a table that allows for Mult-value select box when the source for this field is in another wdDataTable (foreign key)?
This is a must have for me in the design of this application. Attached are screenshots of my experience.
You are right - at the moment, for our Foreign Key Relation Columns - it is only making a "1 to 1" relation, so we can only limit editing of that Column type to the "single value selectBox".
But we have several users who requested this for the future, so our developers will do their best to work on adding it.
We just can't promise if or when that might be possible, but we plan on working on it.
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.

I found that this feature is not available in the plugin at this time: Nothing here (ticksy.com)
Please seriously consider this feature in development. Would open a lot of possibilities.
