    Hello Support … a first time WP user and the first plugin I am trying to use is TablePress.

    My question … I have a table of data in excel that I can import in.

    I have 6 columns and 1000 rows of data.

    Can I have more than one filter so I can filter by date and also filter by club and only show the resulting data from a specific date and club?

    If I also wanted to filter down to say a members name eg by date, by club and by member is this possible?

    I have searched but cannot see any demo of my requirement.

    Any help appreciated.

    The page I need help with: [log in to see the link]

    Hi,

    thanks for your post, and sorry for the trouble.

    That’s a bit tricky. You’d have to find a JavaScript solution based on the DataTables JS library. From what I understand, the TablePress Extension from https://tablepress.org/extensions/datatables-columnfilterwidgets/ might be a good first try. Most likely, you will need a custom solution though.

    Regards,
    Tobias

    Thanks Tobias

    I am completely new to WP so taking it slow and simply checking out if your Plugin will do the job. I will install the extension and then have a play and report back if any questions.

    As a novice I need some link please to a basic tutorial on WP and creating a few pages to get me started before I add my data table.

    Really appreciate the help and clear instructions on your site.

    Thanks

    Here, in the TablePress forums, I can only really help with TablePress problems, as I simply don’t have time for anything else. I’m really sorry but hope for your understanding.

    Hi,

    unfortunately, as I’m not able to offer professional customization work at the moment, I can’t really promise solutions here. But please feel free to open a new thread here in the forums, and I’ll be more than happy to help!

    Regards,
    Tobias
