 * Hi [@funkopopwave](https://wordpress.org/support/users/funkopopwave/),
    Yes WP-
   AppKit works with shortcodes. Post content’s HTML is the same in the app (with
   shortcodes rendered) as it is on website’s front end. But if some custom CSS 
   rules are required to render the shortcode’s HTML, it won’t be displayed correctly.
   You have to manually add those CSS rules to your app, by adding the corresponding
   CSS file to the “css” directory of your WP-AppKit app theme and linking this 
   file in the “head.html” template. I guess that the Ninja Tables plugin requires
   some CSS to render correctly? If so you’ll have to import the Ninja Tables CSS
   into your app. Hope this helps, For any further questions about this matter, 
   please contact us at support[at]uncategorized-creations.com, as explained here:

 * Hi again, the css importing do not worked but afther that i asked to the ninja-
   table creator and they told me this:
 * “As I far I understand that WP-AppKit requires HTML dom to render the table and
   The default ajax render just render the initial table structure ( Without any
   content ).
    To solve this you have to render settings of the table select Advanced
   Render ( Legacy ).
 * Please note that Advance render is available on Pro Version of Ninja Tables.
 * Thanks”
 * that should be the problem. thanks again for your time

 * Hi,
 * Ok thanks for the feedback, I’ve done a quick test on my side too, by default
   Ninja Tables is rendering its tables dynamically using AJAX by default, which
   you won’t be able to do in the app unfortunately.
 * The “Advanced Render (Legacy)” option (Pro version) suggested by the plugin author
   seems to be a workable solution indeed as tables would be pre-rendered on server
   side so they should appear correctly in the app. But I can’t guaranty this will
   work as we didn’t test it.
 * Maybe a fallback solution could be : in the app, replace the tables by an element(
   text, image) saying that this content is only available on website, not in the
   app.
    I can give you directions about how to do this if you think this is a possibility
   for you.

 * I’m now closing this issue, don’t hesitate to give more feedback if you tried
   the “Ninja Tables Pro version” solution.
    Regards
