 * Hy is ist possible to use this plugin just for retrieving for ex. just 1 row 
   from a MySQL table and post it in a page or just a column not an entire table.
   Thanks

 * Hi,
 * thanks for your question.
 * No, sorry, that’s not possible. TablePress can only use its own data format (
   JSONified two-dimensional arrays that are stored in a “Custom Post Type”), but
   it can no access other data sources like mySQL tables.
 * Regards,
    Tobias

 * Hi,
 * no problem, you are very welcome! Sorry that I couldn’t help here, but this is
   simply out of the scope and use case of TablePress 🙁
 * Best wishes,
    Tobias
