    i have asked this earlier. i seriously need help with this. thats the reason i am asking for help again.

    i have a requirement of highlighting specific rows. my table will be constantly updated and it will always be arranged in the ascending order of the “name” entry. what would be the easiest way to highlight important rows?
    as of now i am using this command

    .tablepress-id-14 .row-368 td {
        background-color: #CCFF99;
    }

    but the problem i am facing with this is that i manually need to highlight each entry. and moreover if i add a new entry which falls somewhere in the middle of the table ( coz of ascending order) it will change the row ids of the rows below and the wrong rows will be highlighted.

    so manually highlighting rows is very difficult for me in my case coz of ascending order. if there was no specific order then i could have easily done it manually each time coz the row number would not change.

    i have entered “***” in a field in each row that i want to be highlighted. is there any way to highlight rows only which have *** in them?
    or could there be an option like “important” while adding the new row which would highlight the entry?

    Hi,

    thanks for your question!

    Currently, the manual method is the only method that is readily usable.
    I can however imagine a way to do automatic highlighting based on the value of a column, like that “***” that you already have.
    Unfortunately, this is not that trivial and requires some custom programming (in a TablePress Extension), and due to time constraints, this exceeds what I can offer as free support at this time. If you are interested, I can however offer that we try to work something out as a compensation for my development time. In that case, please send me an email (the address is in the main plugin file “tablepress.php”). I know that this might be an unpleasant answer, but it’s all that I can offer right now. 🙁

    Regards,
    Tobias
