I had to quit after 6 years

<!– wp:paragraph –>
<p class=””>TablePress still shines for being one of the most easy to use table plugins for WP available, while being flexible and having a great support. I used to to update and render tables on my website from Google Spreadsheets. The automatic update function was always a bit unstable but it worked. Since spring this year all tables stopped from updating (I have timestamps in the spreadsheets to check this). After editing table A it updated once more but stopped again later. Table B totally refused to update. I grew a bit tired of constantly setting up the tables new in WP to start it again and consulted the support forum again. there I learned, that TablePress became a tiered full pay product and the free version only has the bare minimum of functionality included. Unfortunatley automatic updates seems to be now available in the MAX package only, which is way too costly for me and my non-commercial website. As this is THE essential functionality for using TablePress (other table plugins actually being more flexible on the output side but lacking the auto update) I had to stop using it and resort to another (newer) solution which is still free and auto updates reliably.<br><br>I totally understand the need for paid versions and maybe autoupdate is a key functionality for commercial sites and companies who will not care to pay the cost every year. I feel a bit sad to leave this awesome tool and a dedicated and friendly developer, but I can’t do without auto-update and I am personally not capable of programming the necessary PHP and Google API scripts for my purposes. I would have been OK with a lifetime fee of that amount but not a yearly cost.</p>
