Support for meta fields in Custom tables

@alx359 ,

Sorry, the Smart Manager plugin currently does not have automatic detection for custom fields from custom tables.

However, with Smart Manager, you can effectively manage custom fields from custom tables by utilizing custom codes and filters provided by the plugin.

Explaining further, you can use sm_dashboard_model and sm_data_model custom filters.

Hope this helps.

Hi @storeapps,

So you’re saying custom fields detection from custom tables isn’t something being considered in the roadmap, as integral part of Smart Manager?

The link you’re referring to is simply an introduction of what a WP filter is. Do you have any specific examples of how to use the sm_dashboard_model and sm_data_model filters in the manner you’re suggesting? A cursory googling comes up with nothing regarding those filters.

Thanks.

EDIT: ok, did a quick search into the plugin’s code. sm_dashboard_model calls products_dashboard_model, and sm_data_model calls products_data_model respectively. Both at glance seem quite complex and apparently demanding a very good grasp of your plugin’s innerworkings. Hope you’d consider adding custom tables support natively at some point.

@alx359 ,

Yes, we have already taken a note of adding custom tables support natively in the Smart Manager plugin and will keep you posted.

While extending the same custom filters might be a bit complex, don’t hesitate to reach out to us if you need any assistance. We’re here to help!
