 * Tobias,
    In many instances you suggest adding to shortcode. Here’s an example:
 * “add a new parameter to your Shortcode, i.e. change something like
 * [table id=1 /]
    to [table id=1 datatables_multi_filter_select=true /]
 * Could you give a brief explanation of:
    1.) Where this is done. 2.) How many 
   items can be added. 3.) If more than one, how are they separated. Give example
   please.
 * Thanks a ton for your help! Your plugin saves me a lot of time.

 * Hi,
 * Thanks for your question.
 * 1.) Shortcodes can be added to the content of a post or page, in the editor window
   of the post or page (i.e. where you type the regular content). Please also see
   [http://codex.wordpress.org/Shortcode](http://codex.wordpress.org/Shortcode) 
   for more on this.
 * 2.) You can add as many Shortcodes to a post, and as many parameters, as you 
   want.
 * 3.) The parameters are separated by a space character, so that they have the 
   format
 *     ```
       [table id=1 property1=value1 property2=value2 property3=vlaue3 /]
       ```
   
 * and so on.
    For a few more examples, please see the first section in the documentation
   at [http://tablepress.org/documentation/](http://tablepress.org/documentation/)
 * Regards,
    Tobias
