 * Hello,
    Is it possible to apply this off “Use the following features of the DataTables
   JavaScript library with this table:” to all tables? I just imported 500+ tables
   and must now go into each one manually and turn this off.
 * Your Plugin rocks!

 * Hi,
 * thanks for your question, and sorry for the trouble.
 * Yes, there’s an Extension at [http://tablepress.org/extensions/datatables-off-new-tables/](http://tablepress.org/extensions/datatables-off-new-tables/)
   that will turn off the default setting for this checkbox.
    (With that, you should
   probably delete the 500 tables again, then install the Extension and then re-
   import the tables.)
 * (Another way would be to globally turn the function off for all tables, with 
   a small filter hook plugin, regardless of the value of the checkbox. That would
   however prevent you from every using the DataTables script on any table, so I
   would not recommend doing that.)
 * Regards,
    Tobias

 * Got it. I did not see this in the list of extensions at [http://tablepress.org/extensions/](http://tablepress.org/extensions/)
   
   Did you just write this?

 * Hi,
 * no, I’ve already had it for some weeks, but it’s such a special case that it’s
   not that useful to the majority of people and therefore is not in the list.
