    Hello. I updated to the latest version (2.4) this morning, and now I’m seeing the messages that my extension plug-ins will stop working later this year. I have a few questions:

    • How much time do I have before this becomes an issue? I’m getting warned about the DataTables Column Filter, FixedColumns and FixedHeader
    • I will need to discuss with management, but I don’t think buying the premium will be an issue. The problem is, I am using literally hundreds of tables across my site. It’s a fundamental aspect of the website. If I upgrade to premium, how much re-configuration will be needed?

    The page I need help with: [log in to see the link]

    Hi @jimithing007!

    Thanks for your post and and your questions!

    For more details on this, please see https://tablepress.org/upgrade-extensions/. These changes will come into effect with the release of TablePress 3, currently scheduled for the 4th quarter of this year (most likely November).

    So, I recommend upgrading before that, just to be safe. And of course, you’ll already benefit from all the improvements of the premium versions then.

    And no worries about potential re-configuration: Everything will continue to work just as before. ?? The premium versions use the same settings, so nothing has to be re-configured (except for deactivating the separate Extension plugins and turning on the respective feature modules once).

    I hope this helps! For any follow-up questions, please also feel free to get in touch via email, which you can find near the bottom of https://tablepress.org/pricing/

    Best wishes,
    Tobias

    Tobias,

    Thanks as always for your help and quick responses. That all sounds good. I think what we’ll do is we deactivate those extensions for now and see if we can live without them before we proceed with the upgrade. So I understand correctly – we just need to have those extensions “Deactivated” to avoid any issues, right? I was planning on deactivating them to test, but I didn’t want to outright delete them just yet.

    Hi,

    Good to hear that this helps!

    Yes, if you deactivate these Extension plugins, you won’t see any issues (but will of course lose those features). You can even leave their configuration (i.e. Shortcode parameters) in place, they will simply be ignored, until you either reactivate the Extension or upgrade to a TablePress premium version.

    Best wishes,
    Tobias

    Perfect, thank you! I will deactivate them all for now and we’ll see how it works out. Thanks again!
