[Plugin: WP-Table Reloaded] Any chance of a Template feature, Tobias?

    Great plugin, Tobias

    Only trouble is, I want my clients (who are not particularly computer savvy) to be able to update WordPress Websites I’ve created for them, including, if need be, adding their own tables. Problem is that my tables require custom css. Now I can talk them though the Admin Panel and show them how to copy an existing table – but then they’d need to add more custom css to make it work. For my clients this would be a step too far. Asking them to start modifying css code would freak them out!

    Is there a chance that for a future version, you could make it so that when someone copies an existing table, any related custom css is automatically added with the correct ID?

    Alternatively, could you make it possible to create templates that carry the appropriate css?

    Just a thought.

    Keep up the good work!

    Hi Nick,

    thanks for your comment.

    Yeah, I know that the styling of tables is kind of tedious right now…

    I’m actually planning to create such a templating feature for tables, where you can create certain layouts and then assign such a layout to each table. However, due to time reasons (I’m busy with university right now), I can not work on this right now, but will try to in the future.

    Another note: If you use the general CSS class selector (without IDs, .wp-table-reloaded) you can usually achieve a common look for all tables already. This should usually be sufficient to style all tables, while certain customizations (on single tables) could still be achieved with the ID based selectors (.wp-table-reloaded-id-N).

    Best wishes,
    Tobias
