Table Field Add-on for ACF and SCF

Reviewers still call it a clean, simple table field that works inside ACF and SCF, and the newest review says the developer fixes the rare issues fast.

How well this listing is tuned to rank in WordPress.org search, on the factors an owner controls. Not popularity, optimization.

Directory searches this plugin turns up in, and which way each one is moving. WordPress.org publishes no history of search positions, so this starts the day we first tracked a keyword and never backfills.

wp.org is where the directory puts the plugin for that search. On merit is where it would sit if results were ranked on rating, support and updates, without the install boost. The last column is how far the wp.org position moved, from our first reading in the last 90 days to the latest.

349 searches this plugin appeared in over the last 90 days, 20 listed. 307 left out as unrelated or noise (years, numbers, stray words).

How often this plugin actually ships. A steady rhythm is the maintenance signal a single "last updated" date can't show.

Share of active installs on each version of this plugin. Green is the current release; a big slice on older versions is a user base that has stopped updating.

Crossed into this band 10 months ago; a band this size takes about a year or more to cross, which places it about 50% of the way through.

   On production you can should have debug mode disabled anyway but in development this plugin is causing an issue on first activation. Every save action in the admin causes a white screen with the _load_textdomain_just_in_time was called to early. You need to manually go back everytime to continue your work.Kind regards This topic was modified 1 year, 2 months ago by melcarthus.

   As the title says, brilliant function for a table, making it more streamline for the end user. If available I’d rate more, the support has been amazing. Getting the table to work for a different page builder, that I can now use going forward on many other projects is awesome. Thanks again for the help.

   I needed a table field for my headless CMS. Although this plugin works okay, it would be nice if it had WPGraphQL support by default. I had to modify my functions file in order to register the ACF field and query the table.

   I just came back to using this plugin today after having it installed some years ago on a site. Still a wonderfully clean, simple and flexible Table field solution, thank you! 👍🏻

   It’s a little difficult to handle links on cells, hope improved that!

   It is a great plugin but sadly it is not possible to set default values. Question to the dev: If someone programs this feature would you add it to the official plugin? This topic was modified 5 years, 2 months ago by Simon.
