Hi Darek,
the tablepress_options option in the wp_options table holds the connection between table ID and post ID. If you don’t need that, there’s indeed no real need to back that up.
The enties in wp_usermeta are also not that relevant. In those, TablePress stores the chosen language for TablePress (in the admin area) and the position in the admin menu that a user chose. When that is not backed up, a user will simply fall back to the default values here.
And yes, the individual table options (like the state of the checkboxes on the “Edit” screen) is stored (also as a JSON encoded string) in those fields in the wp_postmeta table, so that those should be backed up.

Tobias
Tobias,

I guess backup this options in case of migration to other db can make mess. In other wordpress and tablepress installation the tablepress tables can have other ids. So better not backup them. It would be easier create empty tables manually first in order to set up the ids options.
I have ready and working button to backup options to file on serwer. Now it’s time to make restore for options and then similar backup and restore buttons for kkstarratings and lots of testing.
Tobias, thanks again for confirmation and help.
