Hi mks222,
Thank you for the purchase.

Only way to move info block above the table is to edit plugin file. In file ../wp-content/plugins/wpdatatables/source/class.wpdatatable.php on line 2671 find:

$obj->dataTableParams->sDom = "BT<'clear'>{$showRowsPerPage}{$globalSearch}{$scrollable}{$infoBlock}p";

and replace it with:

$obj->dataTableParams->sDom = "B{$infoBlock}T<'clear'>{$showRowsPerPage}{$globalSearch}{$scrollable}p";

Hi mks222,

There is a solution not to overwrite this using filters. You can create your custom function that you have to add in function.php file of your theme.

wpdatatables_filter_table_description( $object, $tableId )

This filter is applied to an object (PHP’s StdObj), which is later printed as a table’s data attribute (json_encoded), and used to initialize the DataTables instance, and to describe other table settings and parameters that are used by the frontend JS library.

$object is the PHP StdObj which contains all the necessary fields for initializing the table

$tableId is the table identifier from the MySQL table (wp_wpdatatables)

Hi mks222,

You have to write function that will use this filter. You can add this function in function.php file of your theme.
