 * Hello everyone!
    Hi Peter!
 * It is possible to extend wordpress table with a relationships via data designer
   or data projects?
    For example I create `employee` table and I want an employee
   can be assigned as wordpress backend user `wp_users`.
 * Is there any options in data designer or data projects to make it possible updating
   related table before or after saving particular table?
    For example: I have `
   products` table that include materials and finished products. In another table
   I create a `bill_of_material` table for finished products via a relationships
   to products table. Can I create a workflow to automatic updating materials stock
   value in `products` table after marked a manufacturing process as done?

 * Hi Dino (I guess?),
 * Interesting stuff! 🙂 Unfortunately the plugin does not support this kind of 
   complex stuff YET…
 * I am working on a PRO extension which allows you to add your own PHP code to 
   a project. With the PRO extension you will be able to create a workflow. Should
   I send you a message when it is available?
 * Can you use database triggers? They can be very powerful!
 * Best regards,
    Peter

 * Thank you for fast reply.
 * > I am working on a PRO extension…
 * Pro version of this plugin? I would love to receive information about it.
    Can
   you give a list of features on Pro version? Any chance Pro version will have 
   report builder module? so plugin user can visually design their report for public
   information and for printing.

 * Yes, thank for your suggestion.

 * Hi Dino,
 * These are my plans for the PRO extension (might change…):
    + Style Manager Contains
   about 20 default plugin and dashboard styles. Can be used outside the plugin 
   as well. + Inline editing Make specific columns in the WP List Table as editable.
   Configurable in Table Settings. + Full text search – For InnoDB en MyISAM tables.
   + Individual column search – Support publications as well. – Code Manager Allows
   to add PHP, JS and HTML code to plugin pages. Will probably support non plugin
   pages as well. – Report Builder – Built reports based in database tables. – Restful
   API – JSON, maybe more… – Grid editor – Excel like table editing.
 * The feature marked as + are done. I hope to finish the rest before the summer…
 * Best regards,
    Peter
