    Hello,
    the tablepress plugin is causing the following error on any page with a tablepress table:

    (index):538 Uncaught TypeError: $(...).dataTable is not a function
    at HTMLDocument.<anonymous> ((index):538)
    at h (header-ce20d0dd876a8bcbd4205eb5c7aa5875.js:10)
    at Object.fireWith [as resolveWith] (header-ce20d0dd876a8bcbd4205eb5c7aa5875.js:10)
    at Function.ready (header-ce20d0dd876a8bcbd4205eb5c7aa5875.js:10)
    at HTMLDocument.g (header-ce20d0dd876a8bcbd4205eb5c7aa5875.js:10)

    This happens on a selfmade theme using Bootstrap 4.1 and Sage 9. In other posts I read the problem occurs due to ? incorrect load queues ? of jquery and tablepress.

    I do not understand how tablepress can cause this error, if I am using Boostrap which is loading jquery. Shouldnt jquery include dataTable automatically? Do I have to load dataTable on my own? If so: Why doesn’t tablepress load it? I want to have as few dependencies as possible.

    Best wishes,
    William

    Hi,

    thanks for your post, and sorry for the trouble.

    Most WordPress plugins need the jQuery that comes with it. Bootstrap does not load that for you.

    Can you please post a link to the page with the table where this problem happens, so that I can take a direct look? Thanks!

    Regards,
    Tobias
