 * Hi Tobias!
    Thanks for some excellent support! I really enjoy using table press,
   especially with such good support!
 * I have many tables on my site (with different table-id), is there any possibility
   to add on identification feature to each row on a main table so that when I change
   anything on the row in the main table, all rows with that ID will change across
   the website. It would same me a great amount of time, if I only needed to make
   the change at one place.
 * If there is no such feature I highly recommend to add it to the pro version, 
   I believe many users would benefit from it…
 * Thanks again, Anders

 * Hi,
 * thanks for your post, and sorry for the trouble.
 * I’m not really sure that I understand.
    You have multiple tables (with different
   table IDs), and they all have the same row of data? And you want to update that
   row in all tables if you update it in the main table? Can you maybe explain this
   with an example?
 * Regards,
    Tobias

 * Hi,
    Sorry, I’ll of course specify my predicament… My site display about 25 casinos.
   On the main page I have only the Top12, but in another table I have all 25. In
   addition to that I have tables for different bonuses, free spins, free money,
   mobile casino and some others.
 * I would like to have one main table, there I put in all data and updates. If 
   I make an update on any of the rows on that table, all tables with that casino
   will be updated. That would work if I could add an ID to each row, and have that
   row-ID on multiple tables.
 * Example:
 * Karamba is displayed on top of the first table. I have also Karamba on the second
   table. The Karamba row looks exactly the same on both tables. Is there a way 
   to make an update on one table and it will be displayed on both tables?
 * In this case there are only two tables, but it could easily be 5-7 tables and
   the information needs to be updated rather often.

 * Hi,
 * thanks, I think I understand now.
 * Unfortunately, I can’t think of a solution with something like row IDs here. 
   That would be against the fundamental data structures in TablePress.
 * Instead, you could maybe try something with the Row Filter Extension from [http://tablepress.org/extensions/row-filter/](http://tablepress.org/extensions/row-filter/)
   
   With that, you could maintain one large table with all entries, and add a hidden
   column at the end (invisible to the user). In that column, you could use certain
   keywords (any string that you like) as the filter term. Then, you could use the
   Extension to show only those rows from the table that have a certain keyword.
 * Regards,
    Tobias
