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!

    trying to update a table from your interface ... table has unique primary key named meta_id

    sometimes it pics up the meta_id value sometimes not .. but always fails with this    

    There was an error trying to update the row! Error: You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near 'WHERE `meta_id` = 0' at line 1

    appears to be a missing single quote in the formed sql

    also every field when clicked to edit says "you cannot edit this field"

    please advise

    Could you point me to the table where you have mentioned query?

    Allen replied

    yes of course ... it is a table from the plugin "private content"

    wp_pc_user_meta

    Hi Allen,

    Please try to use it like

    WHERE wp_pc_user_meta.meta_id = '1044' and it should work

    Allen replied

    OK I did exactly as you suggested ... no change

    SELECT wp_pc_user_meta.meta_id,
           wp_pc_user_meta.user_id,
           wp_pc_user_meta.meta_key,
           wp_pc_user_meta.meta_value,
           wp_pc_user_meta.EntryDate,
           wp_pc_user_meta.Business_Communication_Skills,
           wp_pc_user_meta.Business_Confidence_Skills,
           wp_pc_user_meta.Business_Happiness,
           wp_pc_user_meta.Business_Success
    FROM wp_pc_user_meta
    where wp_pc_user_meta.meta_id =687

    error message

    There was an error trying to update the row! Error: You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near 'WHERE `meta_id` = 0' at line 1

    This is clearly an issue with passing a variable in your code

  • [deleted] replied

    Hi Allen,

    I tested your table with id 22 on draft post, named wpDT Support, that I created on your website and succesfully edit meta_key value as you can see in the attachemnt. Did I missed something?

    OK sorry ...go daddy had an issue and my site was down a week

    what the problem is actually another plugin ...private content ... that is keeping this from updating ... i dont know if you ran into this before  or not

    i was not able to consistently reproduce your results ... if i disable this plugin the update works

    yes i have it handled .. I only have 1 piece of info or advice I would like to ask which you may not choose to answer .. just will take me a bit longer ... I need to call a stored procedure on update to the table ... I need to add this line "$this->db->query('CALL UserUpdate()');" in the right php function that updates the mysql table.


    Any chance you can tell me what function in your code that I need to add this too?

  • [deleted] replied

    Hi Allen,

    I'm not sure on which table update do you mean, frontend or backend, but for both of these we have appropriate filters and actions which you can find listed here with explanations

    We also have video tutorial on how to use them - here.
