    I cannot add the file for the table. I can upload the file but when saving to continue i get a error :Provided file does not exist!

    ( full error is Provided file /mnt/stor1-wc2-dfw1/****/*****/www.***********.com/web/content/mnt/stor1-wc2-dfw1/*****/******/www.********.com/web/content/wp-content/uploads/2022/10/available4.xlsx does not exist! stars just to blur out full path).

    This just started yesterday had been working fine for over a year. This occurred after trying to update the file, and does happen when creating any new table. I have deleted all tables and removed and reinstalled the plugin with no luck.

    Hello,

    Once you create a table from an Excel file, changes in this file, like:

    Changing the column’s name,
    Changing the column’s order,
    Deleting the column, and
    Adding a new column.
    are highly not recommended, because the table in the wpDataTable plugin will not work, at the moment. If you make any of these changes, please recreate the table again.

    Is it possible that you somehow changed/edited the path to the file for the existing linked table?
    For example, because you said the table was working fine for over a year,
    but the path seems to show the year of 2022 , and this month, of October(10) in the path you shown me.
    –
    I was expecting, if it is an old path to the file,
    to be instead of
    ../uploads/2022/10/available4.xlsx
    something like :
    ../uploads/2021/10/available4.xlsx
    Can you try to make a new table, from the same .xlsx file – let me know if that works?
    Thank you
