    Hi Tobias

    is there a way to hide a Datatable button for logged-out users (I don’t want to let logged-out users download the table as an Excel sheet)?

    The DataTables Buttons and the Hide Columns/Rows from logged-out users TablePress Extensions are installed.

    Thanks,

    Lukas

    Hi,

    thanks for your post, and sorry for the trouble.

    Yes, this is possible using some custom PHP code. For example, you could add this to the end of your theme’s “functions.php” file:

    add_filter( 'tablepress_table_render_options', 'lh_tablepress_buttons_only_logged_in_users', 10, 2 );
function lh_tablepress_buttons_only_logged_in_users( $render_options, $table ) {
  if ( ! is_user_logged_in() ) {
    $render_options['datatables_buttons'] = '';
  }
  return $render_options;
}

    Regards,
    Tobias
