Alternative way to store data in TablePress

    Hello. I know this isn’t really a TablePress question, other than the content being inside a TablePress Cell, but are there any good resources to help with storing Data from the TablePress Cell?

    Specifically handling a Checkbox and storing it for the User?

    Currently I’m using Frontend Checklist plugin (that’s no-longer supported by the dev) and adding the Shortcode for 1 Checklist in every-single cell.

    However I will require 1800+ Checklist buttons by the end, which means creating 1800+ Frontend Checklists.

    So I’m hoping there’s a more efficient way to add Checkboxes and store their “check”, without having to create 1800 lists in a Plugin that’s no-longer supported.
    Even if this means adding Javascript/PHP somewhere to handle it.
    Any advise would be greatly appreciated.
    Thank you.

    Hi,

    thanks for your post, and sorry for the trouble.

    For this, you will need a custom solution based on a mySQL database, as you’d need to store the user input in relation to the corresponding field and their user ID.
    TablePress does not offer that and I’m not aware of a directly usable solution, unfortunately.

    Regards,
    Tobias
