    Does tablepress allow user to enter data on the front end and have the table on the back end calculate the results and display the data to the user?

    For example a table with 4 rows and 2 columns as follows.

    Player Score
    Player 1 _____
    Player 2 _____
    Total ______

    The web page would be displayed with the above table. The user would enter a score for player 1 and the total score would be updated. Player 2 score is entered next and the total score is updated. Then the above is repeated. player 1 next score is entered and the total is updated.

    I have entered a formula in B4 as follows =B2 + b3 on the tablepress plugin page and can enter the scores in the plugin backend page and it does the calculation. But, trying to do it front the ‘front end’ does not allow me to enter any data in the displayed table. The only active link is the edit feature.

    Is this possible to do?

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

    Hi,

    thanks for your post, and sorry for the trouble.

    Unfortunately, I have to disappoint you here. This is not possible with TablePress. Formulas can indeed only be used on the “Edit” screen. Sorry.

    Regards,
    Tobias
