Hi, I know we have access to CSS, etc. and to each their own, but I'm looking to customize the appearance of WP Tables on desktop/mobile and I'm looking for the "Best" examples of what is possible in displaying data in the tables.
IMO, "Best" is:
- very fancy looking - very pleasing to the eye - the wow factor - a table using a great color scheme, etc. - a table not is not boring :)
basically, how to you make boring/typical data (lots of rows/columns) look FUN!
1) So the group feature is not for server side :( 2) I guess was I'm looking for is more / better examples of using CSS, Color, and Spacing of the row data... basically, how to make an excel spread sheet row NOT LOOK like it is an excel spread sheet table of rows and columns :)
I'm pretty sure WPDT is the best at what it does for wordpress... I just need a little more customization done for final enduser output. I need the data looking like it is not "JUST" rows/columns/numbers.... even though, the data "IS" only rows/columns/numbers.
I was trying to see what can be done vs. what is possible. I'm assuming any CSS is possible?
Any CSS is possible per se. The thing you have to look out for, though, is that wpDataTables is a WYSIWYG (What You See Is What You Get) plugin, so any CSS added to Custom JS and CSS fields under main settings will reflect both in front and in back-end.
If you want to avoid that, you need to use the css rules on the page where the table is, by putting the code inside the <style>code here</style> tags.
my guess, it is easy, once you have done it 1000 times before :) ultimate, this is my opinion of what "table data" looks like WITHOUT looking like rows and columns.
PS. the BEST IDEA EVER...
i wish WPDT had an import features where we just click a button and it imports CSS code from codepen :) That would be the dream of EVERY PERSON? yes?
Well, that depends on the knowledge of CSS, theme you're using, other plugins installed, etc. So there are a lot of factors that'd determine how hard it would be to do this.
Please note that customization questions like this one are not covered in the included support for the plugin. Included support covers help with bugs and general inquiries for the plugin features, but not writing custom code. As you're developing some custom solution if you need our assistance we can offer you our paid customization service.
Our price is $50 per hour, although I cannot say when this will be finished, since there are a lot of tickets coming in, and also we are working on important bugs and fixes for both wpDataTables, and our new plugin Amelia.
Please let me know if you're interested, and I'll get back to you with an estimated final price and details needed for the project.

Yeah, I must agree this is a great idea; and trust me when I say, we wish this was a possibility as well : ) but at this moment, unfortunately, impossible.

We can provide some examples from our documentation:

Question:
How hard? What are the steps? or Can you do this for me :)
I want to implement this table CSS into my wpdt table
https://codepen.io/faaezahmd/pen/dJeRex
and then get it looking like this:
https://codepen.io/jeremychurch/pen/aYdNoj
(the layout style it shows ON A SMALL SCREEN, but also do that on a desktop screen)
my guess, it is easy, once you have done it 1000 times before :)
ultimate, this is my opinion of what "table data" looks like WITHOUT looking like rows and columns.

Hello Larry.
I've responded to the other ticket.
Can you please tell me where you want to continue the correspondence, so that we can focus on one of these two tickets? This can get a bit confusing.
Best regards.
