 * I keep getting two popups every time I go to my page saying 3. Warning: Cannot
   reinitialise DataTable. It also seems to be causing some issues with the divi
   page builder plugin that I am using.
 * I am not exactly sure what to do to fix this. I read through this page:
    [http://datatables.net/manual/tech-notes/3](http://datatables.net/manual/tech-notes/3)
 * However I am still confused. Here is the link to the page with the table:[http://a19.3b3.myftpupload.com/procurement-bids/](http://a19.3b3.myftpupload.com/procurement-bids/)
 * Thanks,
    Kyle

 * Hi,
 * thanks for your question, and sorry for the trouble.
 * From what I can see, this is caused by a broken theme. It seems that your footer(
   namely the `wp_footer()` PHP function is called three times.
 * Can you therefore please check if this happens with a WordPress default theme
   like Twenty Sixteen?
 * Regards,
    Tobias
