Hello, @nurzhan. Thanks for reaching out.

@nurzhan

i want to display image that is in order database
i dont know how to do that

I’m afraid, the DataTable plugin does not allow to work with image elements, only text data. I have checked the adding of the simple image to the database table, HTML image, and BB-code image - the plugin supports only text elements. Apologies for the inconvenience

ant to add action buttons for exampe to change status of order or to delete it

I suppose it is possible to add the action buttons to some specific row (plugin allows to use the “when the # row was clicked” action).

For example:

1. create a table in database (data which you’re going to display in your datatable)
   
   
2. add the workflow “when page is loaded”
   
   
3. add the workflow “when table row A is clicked”
   
   
4. create the popup, where your action buttons will be placed:
   
   
5. add the action “show popup”:

You have to create the desired action buttons and workflows for them. And that’s it

I hope this will be helpful
