Hey there, Awesome Customers!

Just a heads up: We'll be taking a breather to celebrate International Workers' Day (May 1st and 2nd - Wednesday and Thursday) and Orthodox Easter from Good Friday (May 3rd) through Easter Monday (May 6th). So, from May 1st to May 6th, our team will be off enjoying some well-deserved downtime.

During this time, our customer support will be running on a smaller crew, but don't worry! We'll still be around to help with any urgent matters, though it might take us a bit longer than usual to get back to you.

We'll be back in action at full throttle on May 7th (Tuesday), ready to tackle your questions and requests with gusto!

In the meantime, you can explore our documentation for Amelia and wpDataTables. You'll find loads of helpful resources, including articles and handy video tutorials on YouTube (Amelia's YouTube Channel and wpDataTables' YouTube Channel). These gems might just have the answers you're looking for while we're kicking back.

Thanks a bunch for your understanding and support!

Catch you on the flip side!

Warm regards,

TMS

sorting a table, using 2 forms to make 1 table

    Hello!  I am using a Gravity Form to collect registrations for an upcoming event.  I am using your product to create a Roll Call of all people registered for the event on the event page.  I would very much like for people to be able to sort the Roll Call table by the Company name or by the attendee's Name.  The Company sort works perfectly, but when I try to sort by Name, instead it is sorted by the order in which they submitted their registration form.  I haven't been able to figure out why - can someone help me implement this?

    Related:  We have some South American members, and I created a Registration Form in Spanish for them.  I would like to reflect everyone who signs up using either form on the Roll Call list.  Is that possible?

    Hi Angela,

    1. When it comes to Sorting Issues, this is, unfortunately, one of the limitations we currently have, if you enable "Server-side processing" option on your Gravity Table.

    As we pointed out here; and you can also see this in your Table back-end, 

    • Searching and sorting with Server-side processing – After turning on server-side processing, sorting and search may start to behave unexpectedly. We plan to work with Gravity team to improve it in future versions.

    If your Table has just two, three thousand Rows, you should be able to just disable the Server-Side processing and then all the sorting should work OK;  

    Can you try that, and let me know how it goes?


    2. When it comes to combining multiple Gravity Forms as Source for One Table;

    Sorry to disappoint you, but at the moment this is not possible.

    We can only make one Table connected to one Form.


    You can make a future development suggestion, but i honestly can't say a realistic ETA when or if that will be possible.

    Please feel free to search on our suggestions page

     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.


    Kind Regards,

    Thanks, Miloš - I just assumed I had done something wrong as a relatively new user!  I turned off server-side processing, and it is working perfectly now.  And I thought it was too much to hope for to include data from two forms, but thought I would ask.  Thanks for getting back to me so quickly.
