Specific logged in users seeing unique data

    Hello,

    Is it possible / easy to use the plugin for this scenario?

    [USER ABC] logs into wordpress site, they can view / edit / create data on the front end of the site

    [USER DEF] logs into wordpress site, they can create their own data – without seeing the data from [USER ABC]

    The admin of the site can see the data of all, either in separated databases by users or by a search query

    Any ideas?
    Thanks!

    Hi there, thank you for your inquiry,

    It’s not possible with the Lite version of the plugin, but the full version supports it, you can find it on the plugin’s site.

    I tryed exactly what your asking with the Full Version. In my point of view it is not possible.

    Reason: All the wpdatatables code is executed with the wordpress admin user.. not with the logged in user. Therefore you can’t do anything user-specific.

    1. Adding some variables dynamically to the shortcode –> Not possible because the shortcode is executed before your user-dynamic part is executed (php)

    2. Create tables based on some dynamic json script –> Not possible. The php file which should give the user-specific json to datatables is executed with a general user, not with the logged in user. So your json-generating script will never give you any user specific answer.

    3. the same as on 2. for serialized php array
