Large database not loading in firefox

Sorry. I’m not interested in switching my theme to test. Wp- table reloaded worked just fine. I will switch ba k to that plugin until issue is resolved.

Hi,

thanks for your reply. I know that this might be tedious and inconvenient work, but I don’t see another solution ??

WP-Table Reloaded is outdated, and I can no longer support it. I strongly discourage you from switching back!
We should instead really try to find the cause for this. My assumption is that it’s a JavaScript conflict between a plugin and the DataTables JS library that TablePress uses, or the theme and that JS library. But to test this, we’ll need to do this temporary changes… And it’s not like that the issue will resolve itself, as we don’t even know where the issue comes from. If it really is in another plugin or the theme, we will never find out without testing.

Hi,

good news! ?? The DataTables TableTools Extension is back! You can get the Extension at https://tablepress.org/extensions/datatables-tabletools/

Best wishes,
Tobias

Great! This extension seems to be working. Thank you. Only a bummer that I have to go back and edit the code for every single table link that I want to have this feature. Also, on the last version you had it so that when someone hovered over the options, a text box appeared detailing what that button would do. Can you bring that feature back?

Hi,

good to hear that the Extension is working ??
Yes, you’ll have to edit every Shortcode that shall use this. The alternative would be to edit the code and enable the functionality for all tables by default. You would then basically have to add the Shortcode parameter to all tables that shall not use the Extension.

About the “text box”: I’m not really sure what you mean hear, but I guess you are refering to those small yellow tooltips. Then I have to disappoint you. As those would have to (re-)added in the external TableTools JavaScript library, there’s nothing that I can do here ?? Sorry.

Thank you Tobias. I’m sure I can live without the yellow tooltips. Any chance you could help with changing the code to enable the functionality for all tables by default?

Hi,

sure, just change line 24 in the file “tablepress-datatables-tabletools.php” from

$default_atts['datatables_tabletools'] = false;

to

$default_atts['datatables_tabletools'] = true;

That will enable the feature on all tables by default. To then disable it again on certain tables, add the Shortcode parameter datatables_tabletools=false to that table’s Shortcode.

Tobias
