Hi @pparts,
thanks for taking the time to give feedback here, I really appreciate it! I’m really sorry to hear that you had such a bad start with TablePress!
Please be assured that I’ll do my best to help here, and I’ll be more than happy to give hints on how to find or achieve what you had been looking for! Maybe this will convince you to give TablePress a second chance. I’m sure that it will be helpful for you as well.
Now, unfortunately, I don’t understand what exactly you mean with your very short description. What kind of “live data” do you want to use, instead of “fixed values”? Do you maybe mean formulas? Or do you want to change/update data from other sources “live”? If so, the TablePress Extension from https://tablepress.org/extensions/table-auto-import/ might be a solution.
It would be really great if you could describe your project in more detail, and I’ll be more than happy to take a look!
Best wishes,
Tobias
