Thank you for those ideas, your red ‘checked’ box is perfect. When I think about it, it’s not absolutely necessary to have any color for an unchecked box – if any item is ‘red checked’ it simply means it’s out on loan.

To be honest I don’t quite understand the use of checkboxes in a table display. On the plugin page under PRO, one of the PRO benefits is…”Add clickable Checkbox columns”. For whom would these checkbox columns be of use? For an admin? Or for a public viewer? In my library scenario, a checkbox might only be ticked or altered by an admin; a public viewer would have no interaction with a checkbox, it would simply indicate the loan status of an item (book or pamplet etc.)

I looked in the docs but couldn’t find anything to explain the usage of the checkbox column. So although it sounds good, I’m not sure I understand it!

Thanks for confirming that – I prefer for data to be stored in new tables like that; some other plugins throw the data into wp_posts or wp_terms, which I’m not so happy about because it mixes up regular posts with table data.

So that’s a plus for me, thanks.

One further question: the pro version suggests you can add an extra ‘checkbox’ column to a table. Could the checkbox be styled so that when checked it is red, when unchecked it is green? I’m thinking of a booked-in/booked-out system for a small library. If an admin user could check a box when an item is out on loan, that would be very handy.

Thanks.

Well…thank you for that very thorough explanation!…. above and beyond the call of duty for the Lite version I’m using! Also, I’m ashamed to say, somewhat above my paygrade ?? However, I will try and work on those CSS suggestions when time allows (this isn’t a full time project for me!)

I appreciate your diligence and support, makes WPDataTables highly recommendable.

Kind regards

Hi again,

Many thanks for that! But a couple of follow-up questions:

1. Is that a global fix?…because it doesn’t seem to reference a particular table. Here we are just talking about fixing the Farm Bookings table, not any table other table we have or might create in the future. ?

2. The color fix appears to have changed everything beyond the first row – that still has a heading which is in RED (#FD453B). The other month headings had also been styled in red, but now the fix has been applied all those following month headings are in BLACK. …and yet when you look at the WP table admin, the month headings are in RED.

So it seems the fix isn’t being very selective, and is overriding the color definitions made in the table build? Except for the very first row.

Yours confused….!

Thank you for that very comprehensive reply! It will require a rather comprehensive look at files at my end…which may take a little while ??

The theme is Enfold, a premium theme which includes it’s own page-builder ‘Avia’. I can’t really invoke another theme because the table is placed within an Avia builder componenet. You may well be right that there is a conflict between Avia styles and WPTable styles, with Avia overriding. But I’ll have to look into it when I’ve more time.

Appreciate the thorough investigation, I’ll reply as soon as I can.

HJ

Thanks for that useful script, tbauer – a very simple way to disable what should be configurable in the plugin admin.

2nd December 2023 – wpemailencoder.com still down and showing a message “There has been a critical error on this website”

??

Thank you @jordesign!

Not the most intuitive option you’ll come across, but at least I know now!

HJ

OK, thank you, good to know.

I noticed after deactivating the plugin that the user roles were still in force, so I suspected it had written conditions to the database somewhere.

Presumably these database entries remain even if the plugin is deleted?

regards
HJ

Out of interest, what database tables is Membership writing to….to store roles and capabilities? Does it add new tables or write to core WordPress tables?

Thanks.
HJ

Great stuff, thank you!

HJ

OK, thank you.
I’m not sure I understand what is a core function, but suffice to say it doesn’t play nicely with earlier wordpress!

Would you kindly notify me via this thread when you have a fix and new download availble?

regards
HJ

Hi, there’s no error log file in the wordpress root (where wp-config is). ??

My host fortunately has a diagnostics fucntion, and there are some php errors relevant to Loginizer (they seem to produce a 500 error). Sample of a few lines:

There are quite a few more lines, all repeating the ‘call to undefined function wp_doing_ajax()’ line.

Hi, thanks for getting back. Yes, a bit of a disaster!!

I removed the plugin via my hosts file manager – i.e. I deleted the plugin from wp-contents/plugins folder. I also removed the table it had added to the database. Unfortunately that didn’t return the site in any form.

I will have a look at the error log as you suggest – will reply once I’ve done that.

Only other recourse I can see is to do a full restore of the site from a backup I made last night, before adding the plugin.

I was a bit surprised to lose everything so quickly. Hit the activate plugin link and kaboosh, it was magically gone!

regards

Hi, thanks for response.

Well I tried what you suggested but it’s still stuck on the Backup/Restore view, other tabs dead. I deleted the plugin and then installed it afresh, still the same dead tabs.

PHP is 5.6 (5.6.40 to be precise)

But here’s the odd thing. Exact same site (cloned) running on an old MAMP localhost and slightly older PHP 5.6.10…..the tabs work!

Mystified!
