    Hello,

    First, I want to say, great plugin. You’ve done some amazing work and I respect the hard work and dedication you continue to put towards TablePress. I currently have a Pro subscription.

    I’d like to show a list of the last ten entries added to the table. I have found a few support articles in this forum but could not get it to work as I wanted it to.

    I would also like to show a list of the last ten table entries that have been modified or updated.

    I already have columns for “Date Added” and “Date Modified” in my table. I’d like to display the “Recent Additions” and “Recently Modified/Updated” information in my sidebar. Please see the link I provided for reference. You will see the current sidebar widget that I manually update whenever I add a new item to the table or update a table row.

    Cheers,
    James

    Hi!

    Thanks for using TablePress and for supporting me with a TablePress Pro subscription!

    Yes, something like this should be possible, using the Row Order feature module and it’s capability to sort the table. However, in your case, with those dates, there would be one requirement: These dates would need to be in the yyyy/mm/dd or yyyy-mm-dd format. (However, you could also have another column with the date in the current format, if you prefer that for your visitors.)

    With that and the feature module active, you could then use a Shortcode like

    [table id=15 row_order=sort row_order_sort_column=15 row_order_sort_direction=desc hide_rows=12-200 /]

    to get a table with the 10 rows that were last updated.

    Now, as you have a TablePress Pro subscription, and as I’m actually not really allowed to support the Pro version here in these forums, as per the forums rules, it would be great if you could get in touch by email, to the address that you can see on the “About” screen of TablePress. That way, we can handle any follow-ups directly 🙂

    Best wishes,
    Tobias

    Great, thank you! I apologize for not using the email support, of course I didn’t read the forum rules. 🙂

    I’ll follow up through email.
