In-Depth Feature Analysis

Let’s dive deeper into the three most transformative features that will change how you work with your form data forever.

Dynamic Table Generation from Form Entries

The core magic of this plugin is its simplicity. In the wpDataTables wizard, you’ll find a new option to create a table directly from Formidable Forms. Simply select the form you want to use as a data source.

The integration intelligently reads all the fields within that form and prepares them to be used as columns. You have complete control to show, hide, or reorder columns, set custom labels, and define the data type for proper sorting. This process turns static form entries into a live, dynamic, and sortable dataset on your website in under a minute.

Advanced Front-End Filtering and Search

Static data is unhelpful. This integration makes your data accessible and useful by applying wpDataTables’ advanced filtering capabilities to your form submissions. Imagine displaying a list of event registrations and allowing users to filter by date, payment status, or ticket type.

You can enable a global search box that scours all your data or add individual filters to specific columns. Set up dropdown filters for selection fields, date-range pickers for date fields, and numeric range sliders for number fields. This transforms a simple data table into a powerful search and discovery tool for your visitors.

Front-End Editing and Data Management

Turn your website into a fully-fledged data management application. With front-end editing enabled, you can create tables that allow authorized users to modify form submissions without ever logging into the WordPress admin area. This is a game-changer for many applications.

For example, you can create a user-editable business directory, a project management dashboard where team members update their status, or a simple CRM where you can quickly update client details. You control exactly which fields are editable and which user roles have permission to make changes, ensuring your data remains secure and organized.

Who Is This Integration For?

The Formidable Forms integration for wpDataTables is a versatile tool perfect for a wide range of users and applications.

• Directory & Listing Sites: Allow users to submit listings via Formidable Forms and instantly display them in a beautiful, searchable, and filterable directory on the front-end.
