Quick question how do you change the text color to white in the cell?

Hello there.

This can only be done with some custom CSS. You can assign a custom CSS class (for example “whitetext”) to the column, and then define it in wpDataTables settings/Custom JS and CSS/Custom CSS field with this:
table.wpDataTable .whitetext { color: white !important; }
That should work fine.

Kind regards.

I am getting this error: “wpdatatables Table in data source has no rows.”

I tried your fix but it is not working, HELP

Hello there

Which version of the plugin do you have installed? It seems you’re using Google Spreadsheets, and we can confirm they are working fine. Try copying the data from your spreadsheet in another spreadsheet, and when pasting paste without formatting (values only). That should clear any possible filtering issues.

If you’re still having issues with this, please feel free to open a pre-purchase ticket on our official support platform https://tmsplugins.ticksy.com/, and one of our managers will gladly help you there.

Kind regards!

There is an issue with the HTML editor, I tried to submit a ticket via your support site but my purchase code is expired and cannot post new ticket there. However, I think it would be better for you guys to allow users to submit the ticket, and it will be up to you guys to decide whether you want to offer help or not. In my case here, I am reporting a bug probably will be beneficial for your developer team too. So here it is:

In HTML Editor, when I change the paragraph to preformatted, it will discard the pre tag automatically. The other format (p, h1, h2.. etc) does not have this problem. You guys might be interested in this as well because customers might probably want to attach code snippet or anything like that to suit their own need.

Hello there.

Thanks for reaching out to us about this. You can go to file wp-content/plugins/wpdatatables/controllers/wdt_ajax_actions.php and add < pre > (without spaces; Envato’s comments accept code, so we can’t write the correct tag. Just remove the spaces between PRE and angle brackets) on lines 294 and 569. It will be included in the next update, so you won’t need to do it again.

As for the tickets – your support expired back in 2017, and that’s why you can’t open a ticket in wpDataTables section. You can, however, always open a ticket in the pre-purchase section, and our support managers will gladly help you there.

Kind regards.

Is there a way to add formatting to the data in a manual table such as bold, or ordered lists?

Thanks

Hello there.

You can do that only with some custom CSS. For example, if all text in a column needs to be bold, you can add a custom CSS class in the column’s settings, and then define that class in wpDataTables settings/Custom JS and CSS/Custom CSS field.

Ordered lists can be added in multi-line string columns, using HTML tags.

Kind regards.

Hi. Since WP 5.6 I am no longer able to access the wpDataTables area in the Dashboard – a circle just keeps spinning – on both sites on which it is installed. And the Inspector Console tells me this:

Uncaught TypeError: jQuery(...).animateFadeOut is not a function <anonymous> https://www.xxx/wp-content/plugins/wpdatatables/assets/js/wpdatatables/admin/common.js?ver=2.5.1:234

Is it possible to fix this?

thanks

Hello there.

Sorry for the inconvenience, but the plugin has no issues with WordPress 5.6. The WP version has been updated on all our websites, and we have had no similar issues.

The issue here could be that you’re using an outdated version of wpDataTables (2.5.1), which is not compatible with WordPress 5.5+

You need to update the plugin to the latest version (3.2), and delete cache from your website. After that, it should be working fine.

Kind regards.

I’m so sorry – you are absolutely right. It seems that wpDataTables updates aren’t showing up in the Dashboard so I didn’t realise my installed version was out of date. Apologies again and thank you for taking the time to check it out for me. best wishes

No worries, we’re glad everything’s resolved!

Hi, I have a pre-sales question: I need to create a table and some charts very close to the cryptocurrencies demo you have in your homepage (https://wpdatatables.com/). The table needs to show if the rate is higher this week, or lower (with colors), and I’ll need charts with the latest 5 numbers for each rate… The currencies/rates are very specific for my client, there will be only 10 rates so they will update them manually, but they also need to save the historical. I was thinking about building a CPT with ACF or any plugin like that, but I’m not sure if I can integrate CPTs with your plugin. Also, if it’s achievable with a CPT, should I create a new post every week and group my currency/rate by another field or taxonomy? or could I use a single post for each currency/rate and just update them weekly by adding a new repeater field? It all depend on the possibility of showing the fields from the database if they are arrays (repeaters). Thanks!

Hello there.

Thank you for your interest in our plugin.

What you’re looking for to achieve is not possible with the built-in features of the plugin, as we suppose you want the data to be live, and you need to save the history for comparison.

It may be possible through CPT with ACF, but that needs to be done as a custom solution, and the table created would need to be a custom SQL query based table. We do not provide support for custom queries, so we would not be able to help you out with that.

Kind regards.

Hi! The filter by date does not work if the number of records is more than 2000 – an empty table

only there’s a different form number, but it doesn’t matter

Thank you.

Please check the attachment: https://ibb.co/PxT0Gx4

These are the column headers which you can use in your query. As you can see, there are no `wp_gf_entry_meta`.`prem` and `wp_gf_entry_meta`.`da` columns in there, so query that you pasted will not work, and that’s why wpDataTables returned this error:

Unknown column ‘wp_gf_entry_meta.da’ in ‘where clause’

If `prem` and `da` are fields in your Gravity Forms, values from those fields are saved in the meta_value column (we cannot see these values anywhere in your screenshot), and they need to be extracted from the database table.

We do not provide support for writing custom queries, and we have a separate add-on for pulling data from existing Gravity Forms – Gravity Forms Integration for wpDataTables. That add-on is developed for this purpose – to pull the data from Gravity Forms into wpDataTables.

Queries needed for this are complex, as they involve pulling data from serialized entries, and they also need data from multiple Gravity Forms database tables. That is why the add-on was developed, to help you with pulling data from Gravity Forms. If you wish to do this yourself, you will need a custom query which we cannot help you with, since it’s not included in the provided support for the plugin.

Kind regards.

Once again, before updating your plugin, everything worked fine with this request. In addition, I have another plugin, Gravity Forms Integration for wpDataTables, but it is very raw and does not show anything at all, it hangs. OK. I will look for another solution

Hello,

2.some time even in the Safari browser it is not working.

Hello there.

Thank you for your interest in wpDataTables.

Hi, how can I achieve the table design like your preview (sample) on your page?

There’s no custom CSS there to alter the design of tables.

The skin we’re using for the tables displayed on our website is “Aqua”, and you can change it in wpDataTables settings.

All pages were created with WP Bakery, but there are no CSS changes for the tables themselves.

Hi We use LearnDash and “instructor role”

Is there any way that our students insert their study time hour and make a private chart for themselves? and share the chart with their instructors or share it with some one private

Hello there.

wpDataTables doesn’t have a native integration with LearnDash, so you would need to create a table related to LearnDash’s database using an SQL Query based table, and enable the Users see and edit only own data feature in order for them to see and enter only their data in the table.

This will only work if you have an auto-increment, integer column in the table, and if your users are logged into WordPress. To create a chart that will only display their results, you will need to enable “Follow table filtering” when creating the chart, and place both the chart and the table on the same page.

Kind regards.

I can’t search it says “No matching records found”. I have a new datatable and fetching data from a table VIEW.

How are you calling that view in wpDataTables?

You should create a table with this query:

SELECT * FROM all_prices_v2

No semi-colons ( ; ), no accent graves ( ` ), no additional conditions.

If that doesn’t work, please open a pre-purchase ticket on our official support platform https://tmsplugins.ticksy.com/ providing us with a temporary wp-admin user (administrator), and one of our managers will gladly check this out.

Kind regards.

Can we create a filtering column with shortcut?. Now, I am using it by going to column setting -> filterting tab -> with predefined value.

By using this option I have to create lots of tables.

But if we can use shortuct with filtering predefined value then I can use it only with one table by applicable shortuct.

thanks

Hello there.

If we understood you correctly, you would be able to add one of the variable placeholders as a predefined filtering values (so, instead of a value, add VAR1 ).

Then, you would be able to change the filtering value through the shortcode, so on one page you’d add [wpdatatables id=1 var1=100], on the other page [wpdatatables id=2 var1=150], and so on.

Kind regards.

Thanks Sir, I got your point..but I am generating table from SQL query mainly from custom field. Now to set placeholders the code like SELECT *from my_table as you shown in video is not working. Please suggest as I am very close to my aim. Thanks

Hello there.

Thank you for your interest in our plugin.

We don’t know what data you have in the tables, so we can’t say for sure if what you’re looking for to achieve will be 100% possible with wpDataTables.

It should be, but we can’t say for sure without some examples.

Please feel free to open a pre-purchase ticket on our official support platform https://tmsplugins.ticksy.com/, provide our agents with some data examples, and they will gladly help.

Your plugin never shows it needs updating. EVER. I have had it since 2015 and I have always had to update your plugin manually. It shows it does not need updating, but then I check your changelog to see it is several versions out of date. Plugin will also not let me activate my license anymore. Tired of manual updates and can’t submit support ticket because support has expires. It ain’t worth $250 to have you fix the update issue. Will your plugin every update automatically. Or should I expect to manually update it forever :(

Hello there.

Sorry for the inconvenience.

All purchases made through Envato marketplace have limited support of 6 months, that’s why you don’t have access to our support. The license itself, however, is lifetime.

Since you bought the plugin through Envato marketplace, you don’t actually need the purchase code to activate the license. The “Purchase Code” field is reserved for purchases made through our website, and needs to stay blank when you’re activating with Envato.

So, all you need to do is click on “ACTIVATE WITH ENVATO”, and the plugin will take you to the Envato log-in page, where (upon logging-in) the license will be activated.

Because Envato’s API is limited to linking 3 requests per second you will probably need to click on “Activate with Envato” a few times until the license is activated, but once it is activated, it will stay active and you will be able to update the plugin through the Plugins page.

Can you please try now, and let me know if it works? Just remember that you probably will need to click on “Activate with Envato” a few times before it actually activates the license.

It can take up to 25 attempts before the license is active, so please have patience.

After the plugin’s license is activated, you will be able to update it through the Plugins section.

Kind regards.

Why $299 here and $189 at your site? What is the difference?

Hello there.

Thank you for reaching out to us.

When we just started Envato was a great place, and we are very grateful for the starting opportunity it gave us.

We built and launched our own online store, and started selling the items through it, having to opt out of exclusivity on Envato.

So, for a regular price here on Envato, you would get the same plugin you’d get from our website, but with 6 months included support. Basic Lifetime license purchased from our website has lifetime updates, and lifetime support.

If you need any further info about this, please feel free to open a pre-purchase ticket on our official support platform https://tmsplugins.ticksy.com/, and one of our support managers will gladly help.
