Responsive Tables extension collapse mode loses a column

    I found a bug in your responsive table extension with the collapse mode. In collapse mode one or two columns get lost. You can see an example on your own Responsive Tables extension page.
    https://tablepress.org/extensions/responsive-tables/#tablepress-demo-responsive-no-4_wrapper

    I tested it on Chrome and Firefox and my Samsung S5 phone. At normal size looking at your Responsive Tables extensions page from my laptop you see a row with Last Name, First Name, Birthday, Company and Phone. When you click the + the first thing you expect to see is the next column, namely zip code… but no zip code appears. In fact zip code has disappeared from the entire table.

    I downloaded it to review it from my site and found the same problem for me.

    Hi,

    thanks for your question, and sorry for the trouble.

    Yeah, I’ve also noticed this recently. Really strange. Unfortunately, there’s nothing that I can do about this at the moment. We’ll have to wait for an updated version of the JavaScript library (an add-on for DataTables) that fixes this.
    As soon as I can confirm that it’s fixed, I’ll release an update for the TablePress Extension!

    Regards,
    Tobias

    Hi,

    Thanks for the quick reply. Your response times on answering bug reports is really impressive. 🙂

    That said I’m baffled because looking at DataTables site (assuming I have the right page) where their examples use their own code I noted that their responsive collapse examples seem to work ok, e.g. this one:
    https://datatables.net/extensions/responsive/examples/display-control/auto.html

    If it’s working for them then it seems unlikely that they will update the software.
    Could it be something else?

    Thanks again, Tobias.

    Hi Grant,

    they might actually have released a new version already, at least that’s what I think after checking their code repository.
    I’ll take a look at this in the next days.

    And yes, this might have other causes that somehow disturb how the script measures certain column widths, but I don’t really know what exactly that could be :-/

    Regards,
    Tobias
