    Hi Tobias,

    I installed the DataTables Buttons extension and I’ve tested the page on mobile devices (iPhone, iPad & Android).

    The ‘Excel’ button is missing on iPhone and iPad. However, it works fine on Android.

    The shortcode:

    [table id=1 datatables_row_details=true datatables_row_details_columns="F-J" responsive=scroll datatables_buttons="excel,csv,pdf,print" /]

    The page in question:
    https://sandbox.pixelrat.com/

    Cheers

    Mark

    Hi,

    thanks for your post, and sorry for the trouble.

    To be honest, I don’t know why that would be. It could be possible that the external DataTables JS library does not always support the Excel button on iOS devices, maybe because they rely on Flash.
    Can you maybe check at the library’s website at https://www.datatables.net/ if they mentioned something like that?

    Regards,
    Tobias
