Hello,
Since the update wordpress 3.9, db-toolkit no longer works
Cordially

Hello,
Db-toolkit is an awesome plugin. I have some troubles when trying to export a table content to pdf.
As seen in the following picture:
https://www.dropbox.com/s/h79dhej73v4nlaq/bug_wordpress.png
Every characters ě????yáí?ň?? (iso8859-2 or windows CP1250, or UTF8) have problem when trying to export to pdf.
Instead of í it writes some bullshit.
It is working OK when trying to export to .csv but not working anytime I want to export any table content to pdf.
What am I doing wrong? Is it really a bug?
I am using newest version 3.7.1 of wordpress, and latest version of DB-toolkit. (today is 12th november)
Thank you for help
PDF Export cuts text off at the end of cell – no line breaks. Theme is Twentytwelve. Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks very much, Thomas
]]>Great plugin by the way, probably up there with the best concepts ever..
My problem though is if you have two tables A – and B with multiple fields. Then you want to link A to B, so that after filling in the fields in A, B takes a a field from A and autopopulates the form for table B.
I know the join allows the field to be joined (Join tables), but it appears as a dropdown instead of automatically linking. You then need to select the right dropdown from ALL the data in the linked field, rather than one specific date.
Surely a common facility needed is to allow linking of tables easily so that Each individual record can utilise ALL the tables, without having to specify in each table that its a particular unique IDs data that needs updating..
Does the WHERE option solve this.. I have scoured all the tutorials and still cant figure that out..
Any help would be greatly appreciated and will be checking this forum regularly for replies ??

Just I have a table with 6 fields ( Ref, Description, Price, Plataform, Family & Model ) inside to my wp-database. It is showing corretcly the list by I′d like to filter the table using a Dropdown Field. For that I have create a new interface where a virtual field is -select options- type. I gave tree posibles values ( Appliance, virtual and cloud ) those values are in -plataform- column in the table. My idea is pass the this values to the SQL Sentence using WHERE (plataform like “$ValueSelectOption”
I tried several times and ways. No sucessfull. Is there any other way? Could you please explain me if we can pass values from an Interface to another to be filter?
Thanks in advance for this great tool.
Great tool,
but i have a problem before i can use it:
If an interface is in LIST MODE, and if items should be displayed on many pages, the link ‘go to next page’ (or go to last page, fisrt or previous) do not work. it always show the first page.
ps: If user is logged, it works. (but do not want user to log in just to view items of a table…)
Using WordPress 3.6.1, db-tookkit 0.3.3
client: tested on windowsxp, windows 7,windows 8,Androdin. brosewer IE7 IE9,IE 10, Chrome, Firefox, Android…

]]>The search doesn’t work unless a user is logged in. Admin to subscriber. In other words the Public/null permission requires a login.
The host is Host Gator.
When the same site is on Lunarpages I don’t have this problem. .htaccess is the same on both hosts and the version of WP is the same.
]]>Is it possible to connect to an external database using this plugin?
Another question, is it possible to limit the tables that are viewable by an individual site in a multisite setup?
]]>Hello,
I have a really weird issue where a new app (form) created in DB toolkit inserted as shortcode into a wordpress page (the only thing in the page) only updates the last submitted record and doesn’t insert on all subsequent entries using the form. The “reset” button does not work as well to clear data.
The reset button works until I actually submit an entry. Then it no longer works after submitting. I have another form on another page working great (WP 3.7). The table both are tied to are setup identically.
Any ideas?
]]>When I click on create app in the db_tookit app builder it puts a form at the top of the page instead of bring up a pop up window with the form in it. this would be ok but there are no buttons to exicute the building of the app. I am running wordpress 3.6.1 on a windows 2008 server with IIS7.
Any help would be appreciated?
]]>Excellent dbase! Once I get things running I will definately donate.
How can I use the pagename as the criteria?
Thanks

HI,
I want to create something unique in wordpress i think this plugin will help me.
I want users to create login usernames and passwords, once they have logged in they have the option of completing a form. Users can log in and out and the form will be saved. they can access the form next time they log in. once they have completed the form it will be saved in a database and the admin users can export the form in a pdf format. Could someone help me with the best options?
Many thanks
]]>Hi David,
This is a fantastic plugin.
1) Can you help me with a simple adaptation so i can use the add, edit and delete button in a list depending on the role of the user?
The permission part is not ready. I can understand. If you help me where to put a small piece of code to enable or disable each function depending in the role it would be great. I added a few roles with the members plugin.
P.s. your tool is as good as PHPrunner and its integrated in wordpress!
2) In a multisite system the plugin seems only to work for the main site and not with subdirectory sites. Which parameter i can change to enable the plugin for subdir sites.
Are you ok for a few tips to improve functionality? I can send a few request to make it even better.

Was working fine for awhile, but now have this error:
WordPress database error: [Incorrect table name ”] SHOW FIELDS FROM
Any ideas?
]]>I currently have a form built using this plugin and it is sending the data to a SQL database. Everything seems to be working fine except for the display of the information coming from checkboxes. When I pull the form information into a table on a WordPress page, any item where I use check boxes the information displays a bit odd in the database. For instance if I choose “item1” and “item2” for a question with answers built with checkboxes the result I get sent to my database is something like:
a:2:{i:0;s:3:”item1″;i:1;s:12:”item2″;}
Is there a way to get this to display just as comma separated values for checkboxes like “item1, item2”?
]]>Hi!
I have managed to get DB Toolkit to do what I want on a site that I′m developing, but the pagination and view entry icon is not working as I expect.
I have tried with the the original theme but the problem is still there.
See here: https://botaniska.mhwebbproduktion.se/rodlistade-karlvaxter-test/
Any idea what this can come from?

]]>I’ve created a relational database, for simplicity sake, let’s say Inventory and Line Items.
There is one Item in inventory and many possible line items for an invoice.
Has anyone discovered a way to join and populate the relational fields?
Ideally, I’d like a text box where you start typing in the product name which it checks against the inventory table. Haven’t seen a way to do this yet, so I just created a text field entry.
If I create a Filtered Join Table to pull the other information based on this text field, it only gives me a pulldown menu, not an auto population of the related information.
Anyone have suggestions?
]]>I am unable to turn on the visible property on any field. On clicking Visible or other field properties, following error is seen on firebug –
ReferenceError: df_setToggle is not defined
Tried deleting the plug-in and reinstalling. Have also checked with an earlier version of db-toolkit (0.3.2.026), and also tried with wordpress 3.5.1 – still the same issue.
Am able to view the form layout.
I am doing all these on a hosted environment (linux) and only other reference to this error (in db-toolkit context) seemed to point to “/” vs “\” directory issue for local hosting on windows OS.
Appreciate any pointer to overcome this issue.
]]>Hi
Followed David’s Tutorial,
I can not get the “Introduction” text to reappear after saving it.
I go back to Chapters – and view – and click on the “introduction” checkable text – but nothing is saved. I have followed instructions twice with the same result.
I guess its me – but is there a bug?
]]>I have just loaded the DB Toolkit and when I try to create a new app the entire screen is gray I am able to enter an application name but not a description. When I click the create application button nothing happens. When I click on the cancel button nothing happens. I have to use the browsers back button to get back to the WordPress dashboard. I have tried using IE, FireFox, and Chrome. Is this a compatibility issue with 3.6.1? I would really like to see if your plugin will solve my database needs. Thank you
]]>Hi David,
I’m trying to capture the User ID and store it in a table. I have set a field in the table with field type User ID and checked Capture Updates as per your post here. The User ID is stored OK when I add an entry. However, it doesn’t update when I update an entry. It appears that checking Capture Updates has no effect.
Is this a bug or am I missing something? If it is a bug, is there a fix?
DB Toolkit rocks. Keep up the good work.
]]>I’d like to make the interface easy and fast for end users and wanted to capture the date/time by letting them select a checkbox to mark an event time. The idea is that the time is then passed to a date field without them having to manually put it in, or open a form. (They can do it from the table view)
Any ideas how to capture the date and time and pass it to another field on a click?
]]>Hi,
how can i create a query between two different tables? Thanks
I’ve built an interface in list mode using a div table. The formatting returns correctly and it does seem to be performing the search but, rather than showing the field content in place, it’s just showing the field code – as in {{field_name}}.
I’m getting no errors and, if I alter the filter command in the post “[interface id=”dt_intfcc522b30e61f865″ filter=”jobs_e121ID” by=”2″] at all, the entire form doesn’t render, so I assume it is, in fact, rendering the form correctly, I just don’t understand why it’s returning code and not result.
Any suggestions?
]]>Hi everyone,
I’m using DB Toolkit to make a simple search in one table. It works like a charm but I would like to have 3 filter inputs instead of 1. I want to search on 3 differents column in my table.
How can I add these new filters if it’s possible ?
Thanks for your replies !
]]>David,
I’d be interested in “donating” by offering to help with documentation (which is actually in my best interest). If you’re interested, how can I get a hold of you?
]]>I want to be able to prevent duplicate entries in a table. I have simple table containing a list of business names and an auto increment field. The business name field is set to “Single Text Field” and I’ve checked the Unique flag. However this doesn’t seem to prevent duplicated appearing in the table.
Am I missing something here?
]]>When I create a interface with an upload field, the resulting document (PDF) is displayed correctly with a pdf icon and link to the file, BUT when I create a view page, linked to the list grid item, the resulting file field is a generic ‘file’ with the document size but no link.
The field settings are the same, for the file upload field, on both the view interface and the list interface.
What am I doing wrong
Thanks
]]>Every time I try to save an added entry, I am pushed to https://www.mydomainname.com/wp-admin/admin-ajax.php and the page only shows “0” in the upper left hand corner. I’ve tried changing themes as well as disabling all plugins. Any idea what the problem may be? Thanks for the otherwise awesome plugin!
]]>I create a search form on a database table I created.
This works great, but not in Chrome.
I don’t see the form there at all. Only this:
<!– .entry-header –>
<div class=”entry-content”>
</div>
<!– .entry-content –>
What can be wrong?
Thanks in advance
