Hi,
thanks for your post, and sorry for the trouble.
Unfortunately, such a method is not currently possible, due to the way how TablePress loads and saves the data (essentially, it needs all cells to be on the page when it saves).
Now, I’m already working on a completely rewritten “Edit” screen that will also be faster. In the meantime, my suggestion would be to first try a different browser, as there can be significant differences, e.g. between Chrome, Firefox, and Edge. Another method would be to edit/maintain the table offline, e.g. in Excel, and then re-import a saved CSV file into TablePress, replacing the existing version of the table. If you want to change the settings below the table input fields, you could upload a “dummy” table with just a few rows, make the settings changes, and then upload the actual table again.
Regards,
Tobias

Thank you for the prompt response Tobias.
I understand no worries. Meanwhile I can definitely use the dummy table trick.
Any idea when the new “Edit” screen will be released?
Again, really appreciate the help.
Hi,
Developing the new “Edit” screen is rather complex, and for personal as well as job reasons (I’m not a professional web developer and TablePress is “just” a big hobby), my time is pretty limited at the moment. Therefore, I can’t really give estimates on potential release timeframes. Sorry.
Best wishes,
Tobias
