3.9%

of downloads still active

At least 50K of 1.3M lifetime downloads are still running, above its category: the median Uncategorized plugin keeps 0.6%, across 17,785 plugins.

Downloads count every update, not just first installs, so older and more frequently released plugins read lower. Compare against other Uncategorized plugins, not across the directory. wp.org reports active installs as the bottom of a band, so the real rate is this or higher.

This plugin shipped 14 releases in the last 12 months, and every existing install that updated counted as another download. wp.org publishes no split between first installs and updates, so we show the raw rate rather than guess at one.

    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.

    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.
