DataTables warning: table id-tablepress-1 – Cannot reinitialise DataTable.

    Using: Tablepress V1.7. Pagelines Whitehouse theme (old theme). PageLines Platform 5
    Getting “DataTables warning: table id-tablepress-1 – Cannot reinitialise DataTable. For more info …”

    I’ve searched forums and see what the footer.php is often the culprit but I don’t see that as a problem. The Java functions of sorting and filtering appear to be working too so I don’t think it’s outdated.

    Any ideas on what’s causing this? It was working just fine and then today, months after I first started using the plugin, I noticed it was giving error. I don’t know what started it.

    Hi,

    thanks for your question, and sorry for the trouble.

    This is indeed an issue in your theme. For some reason, it’s printing the JS in the footer twice. It seems that it’s calling the wp_footer(); function twice, or a related filter hook or action.

    can you give me any idea on where to start looking for a fix? I’m a noob when it comes to this.

    I’ve tried other themes, same thing happens. It must be caused by a plugin.

    Hello TobiasBg,

    Hope you are good in health. I am facing same issue with TablePress and Membership 2 plugin, As I have added the Membership login widget in footer area and they are basically dequeue all scripts and enqueue it again with their login form. https://screencast.com/t/cdeb5jZjSRUY

    But somehow TablePress enqeue the datatable initialization code again in footer on wp_footer(). https://screencast.com/t/KIuJbF3fPl

    If we remove the wp_footer() from footer then issue solve which is risky to remove the wp_footer() from footer. Please suggest solution for this.

    Thanks.

    Hi,

    yes, you must keep wp_footer().
    Unfortunately, I don’t see a good solution here. It’s simply bad by that widget to dequeue all scripts ??

    Regards,
    Tobias
