Hello kristoto,
First, thank you for using my plugin and providing feedback. 🙂
Unfortunately I haven’t tested how many rows the table converter will handle, however I know it has an option to convert large amounts of data using service workers. I haven’t implemented this function into my plugin because I didn’t think there would be a need to convert such large files. However I can now see my assumption has been wrong 😛
If you send me a copy of your CSV file I will do some testing and implement the service worker functionality for the next update.
As for the automatically re-alphabetizing upon new addition, no, that doesn’t happen 😛 It will have to be manually moving the newly added row to the desired spot =( However, the tables can be sorted. So if your column header is “name”, you can sort alphabetically by clicking on the headers. (this is an extra step for the user)
I may look into options where the table in the front end will automatically sort based on the column head upon load. Let me know if this is a feature you would be interested in.
Thanks again for using my plugin and providing suggestions/feedback, it definitely motivates me to keep improving the plugin.

Hey again,
I did a test and yes the plugin is able to convert CSV files with over 2000 rows. However, because its such a large amount of data, wordpress rejects the content for saving in the backend. 😀 I will have to look into increasing my SQL table data size for this to work. I don’t know what the max row count is unfortunately. Also if you try to convert a large file with over 2000 rows, the conversion takes a little bit and the page stops responding, I should also add a loader for this so its not confusing 😀
Thanks again
John
Was checking in on if you got the csv file I sent, as well of list of products to be listed? Also wondering how long before I can find out if you have been able to make it handle the immense product upload we need? I really want to use your plugin, but can’t risk removing what I have done so far for another one that can’t handle us. Thanks again for all your help. Also if there is a premium version that we can purchase to get all of your assistance as needed we have no problem purchasing it.
Thank you,

Hey kristoto,
I didn’t receive an email containing a CSV at all. Do you mind sending it again to:
johntendik@hotmail.com
I have been super busy with school and work that I only have the weekends to work on this plugin. I have a lot of features planned for the next update (which should be coming out soon I’m hoping, still doing testing/bug fixing) that include things like automatic row sorting in the backend and a bigger space to store tables.
If you send me a copy of your csv I can test with that file to make sure everything is ok.
Unfortunately there isn’t a premium version of the plugin. When I first released the plugin it was simply a personal custom plugin for a project that didn’t even work that great. I don’t have plans to charge anyone to use this plugin. I enjoy helping others and solving problems. In the wordpress forums I’m less active because I don’t get emails sent to my inbox when people comment. If you use Github to contact me I’m usually more active and responsive there. I don’t normally ask people for ratings/reviews but if you wish to support me/this plugin without paying you can leave an honest review/rating of the plugin. It helps my plugin get noticed more and motivates me to keep working on it.
Thanks again for using/wanting to use my plugin and providing feedback. Also don’t forget to re-send the CSV to my email so I can do some testing.
