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!

    I have a column in my wpdatatable that I only want to use for conditonal formatting, but when I hide the column I lose my Conditional formatting, is there a w9rk around?  Also, I do I conditionally format a number range?    Thanks

    Hi Stu,

    With wpDataTables built-in functionalities it is not possible to apply conditional formatting on column that is not visible.

    As a workaround you could set conditional formatting for that column that you want to be invisible. For that column DO NOT uncheck visible checkbox because conditional formatting will not be applied in the table.

    After defining rules, to hide that column and to have conditional formatting in same time you will have to add this little script in text tab of your page where the table is located.

    <script>
    jQuery( window ).load(function() {
    wpDataTables.table_1.api().columns(0).visible(false)
    });
    </script>
    

    Where number 0 is the first column in the table, 1 is second, 2 is third...  Just change it with the number of the column you want to hide.
