    Hi Peter,

    I have created a data project with a page. Are you able to take the editable data project page and post it to a webpage, with something like short code? I would like it available from the web view, not just the menu.

    Hi David,

    I know I have to invest time in user documentation and I will… ?? You are right!

    In the mean time, if you have questions, please ask! I’ll be glad to help!

    Best regards,
    Peter

    Hi David,

    I released a new version of the plugin yesterday. I decided to move the documentation to a public location and added some step by step instructions how to work with the plugin, hoping this will give users more insight information and a beter understanding how the different features of the plugin work together.

    I created two quick tours which can be found here: https://wpdataaccess.com/docs/documentation/getting-started/quick-tours/

    From my perspective these quick tours should be helpful, but I’m curious whether it is helpful for users like you. You said I should come down a few levels. I tried and now I’m curious whether I succeeded… ??

    I’m trying to learn from my plugin users. So maybe you can have a look at these quick tours and let me know what you think? Your feedback is appreciated.

    Thanks in advance!

    Best regards,
    Peter

    Hey, thanks for the plugin! In my application, I want to connect to a remote MySQL database.

    So, I am apparently able to connect to the remote database, but am not successfully pulling in any tables. Seems like a permission issue on the db? For the user account on the database, I have SELECT and SHOW VIEW permissions. What else would I need just to be able to view the data. I do not want to enable any inserting or editing of the db.

    Thanks ahead!
    Jim

    What I am getting when testing the connection:
    Preparing connection…
    Establishing connection…
    Connection established…
    Counting tables…
    Found 0 tables on remote host…

    Remote database connection valid

    Hi Jim,

    Looks like your setup is correct! If you turn on WP debug mode, are you seeing any errors? If you don’t see any errors, I presume your user just does not have the right permission. Did you add the ip address (or host name) to your grant? Like:
    grant select on database_name.table_name to ‘user_name’@’IP_ADDRESS’ identified by ‘password’;

    Best regards,
    Peter
