Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about Posts Table with Search & Sort

Simply choose your options at Settings > Posts Table With Search & Sort, then add the shortcode [posts_table] to any page.
By default it will list all of your posts, but you can use the 'category', 'tag', 'author' or 'post_status' option in the shortcode to restrict the table to that category/tag/author/status only.
See the main plugin description above for the list of options.
Yes, please visit our plugin demo to see the posts table in action.
The plugin has been designed to work with different WordPress themes and will take the styling from your theme for the fonts etc. where possible.
No, it only displays standard Posts. Our Pro Version supports custom post types, as well as taxonomies, custom fields, and much more.
The column widths are calculated automatically by the plugin, based on the contents of each column. However, you can override this for one (or more) columns by setting an exact width. You would need to add some code to your theme (or in a custom plugin) to do this. The filter to hook into is posts_data_table_column_defaults. Here's an example setting the title column to 80px; add_filter( 'posts_data_table_column_defaults', 'posts_table_set_title_column_width' ); function posts_table_set_title_column_width( $column_defaults ) $column_defaults['title']['width'] = '80px'; return $column_defaults; } Bear in mind that the plugin might still override your column width if there isn't enough room for the data it contains, or the rest of the columns in the table.
Yes, the table will automatically adapt to fit different screen sizes. If your table has too many columns to fit on smaller screens then a '+' icon will appear alongside each post, allowing you to click to view the hidden columns.
This is probably because you have a sticky header (your header sticks to the top of the screen when you scroll down). This means it's covering the top of your posts table. You can add a 'scroll offset' to push the table down to prevent this from happening. For example, if your sticky header is 50 pixels high then use [posts_table scroll_offset="50"]
If you have a multilingual site using WPML then the plugin will display your posts in the correct language automatically.
