 * Hi,
 * In wpDataTables you have the function “Hide table while loading”. I cannot find
   this option in TablePress. Does anyone know if it is possible to recreate this
   in TablePress? I want my table to “hide” untill it is fully loaded.
 * Thank in advance!

 * Hi,
 * thanks for your post, and sorry for the trouble.
 * There’s no direct feature for this in TablePress, sorry.
    You could maybe achieve
   something like this with rather simple CSS code. For example, add this to the“
   Custom CSS” textarea on the “Plugin Options” screen of TablePress:
 *     ```
       .tablepress-initially-hidden {
         display: none;
       }
       .dataTables_wrapper .tablepress-initially-hidden {
         display: table;
       }
       ```
   
 * In addition, please add `tablepress-initially-hidden` to the “Extra CSS classes”
   field on the “Edit” screen of all tables for which you want to to this.
 * Regards,
    Tobias
