    Hi Tobias,

    What a fantastic plugin you have here! I’ve just discovered it today and it’s going to be very useful.

    I have a table which is created in the usual way and I need to hook into the plugin to automatically add an extra column which will contain a link with a dynamic URL corresponding to the values of other columns in the same row.

    I have a feeling that this is possible using one or more of the available hooks – can you please point me in the right direction for what I would need to do to get something like this in place?

    Many thanks,
    Shaun

    Hi Shaun,

    thanks for your question.

    The best way to do this is indeed to use an existing filter hook, namely the tablepress_table_render_data hook in class-render.php.
    That will give you the table as an array, so that you can manipulate that with regular PHP code.

    Hi Tobias,

    Thanks very much for the reply, much appreciated. I’ll check out the tablepress_table_render_data hook and hopefully I can make it do what’s needed.

    Thanks again,
    Shaun

    Hi Shaun,

    no problem, you are very welcome!
    Yes, that hook will be the best approach to this, as you’ll just need to return the modified table.

    Best wishes,
    Tobias

    P.S.: In case you haven’t, please rate TablePress here in the plugin directory. Thanks!
