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

Combined Table Data (Formidable Forms + Manual Values)
Closed

  • thebigb started the conversation

    Dear TMS,

    is it possible to build a table with manually entered data values (constants) combined with values of formidable forms entries (dynamic)?
    E.g. table row1 column1 = 1.5 / column2 = formidable forms entry fieldX
    table row2 column1 = 1.0 / column2 = formidable forms entry fieldY ...

    Is it possible to get single formidable forms field values via shortcode and paste them in a row/column of my choice (e.g. manually data table)?


    Thanks in advance,
    Marcus

    Hello Marcus.

    It's not possible to dynamically pull the data from Formidable Forms, but if you purchase the Formidable Forms Integration for wpDataTables add-on, you can create a table linked to Formidable Forms, and then use the Single Cell Shortcode feature to generate a shortcode from this (Formidable-based) table and paste it into a manual table you created afterward.

    For example, this is the Formidable Forms-based table and I want to copy the data of the "Email" field:

    1861661611.png

    The shortcode I need would be:

    [wpdatatable_cell table_id="49" row_id="1" column_key="createdat" sort="1"]

    wpDataTables supports a lot of other plugin's shortcodes so you can even try using direct single field shortcodes from Formidable (if they support that), but the only thing you'll need to do as a prerequisite is to enable the "Parse shortcodes in strings" in wpDataTables General Settings.

    This will allow you to use shortcodes in string-type columns.

    Kind Regards,
