Dear Support,

Do you have a simple way to change the "Display length" default value to 5 entries under "Additional settings"?

Normally the lowest value is 10 entries

Thanks,

Hi,

There is actually two files that need to be slightly edited.

First file, wpdatatables/templates/edit_table.inc.php, search for id="wpDisplayLength", add the number that you like for the row, let say value of 1, we add this line

 <option value="1" <?php if (isset($table_data['display_length']) && $table_data['display_length'] == '1') { ?>selected="selected"<?php } ?>>1 <?php _e('entries','wpdatatables');?></option>

above the value 10 row. 

Then go to second file, wpdatatables/source/class.wpdatatable.php, search for the $_lengthDisplay = 10 and change to 1, then search for this line and update the json_decode value to the below:

$obj->dataTableParams->aLengthMenu = json_decode('[[1,10,25,50,100,-1],[1,10,25,50,100,"All"]]');

Hopes this will help, at least that is what works for me.
