Hi James.

I am sorry to disappoint you, but fixing table headers is considered a custom solution, and it is highly dependent on the theme you're using. We would need to create a script that'd implement the feature, and we'll need the theme you're planning on using. Even then, it depends on the theme if that'll actually work.

As for the fixed first column, one of our customers managed to achieve this, so here's his response in it's entirety:

"I actually created a fixed header and column using translation of x and y (no absolute or fixed position used), very similar to the fixed header provided by weihs5  on this site, and here's one solution, take a look:

First of all, you gotta set the z-index for each component below:

jQuery("#table td").css({"z-index": "-1", "position": "relative"});  
jQuery("table tr td:first-child").css({'z-index': '1', 'position': 'relative'});
jQuery("table th:first-child").css({ 'z-index':'2','position':'relative'});

Then you gotta add listener on scroll like this:

jQuery('document').scroll(function () {   scrollBlock();
});

If your table is set to be scrollable, then you might want to add this in as well:

jQuery('.wdtscroll').scroll(function () { scrollBlock();
});

And here's the scrollBlock() part, it is ugly though, but it works for me though. (noted: the numbers work for my theme, if it is not working correctly on yours, then try to adjust the number until it fits.)

function scrollBlock(){  var table = document.querySelector('table');
var top = table.getBoundingClientRect().top;
top = document.body.className.search('admin') > 0 ? top - 32 : top + 3; // this value can change            var left = table.getBoundingClientRect().left;            if(left >= 20){ // before scrolling left (before transforming)                                if(top >= 0){ // before reaching header bar                    jQuery("#table_1 thead th").css("transform", "translateY(0px)");                     translate(jQuery("table th:nth-child(1)"), 0, 0);                     translate(jQuery("table td:nth-child(1)"), 0, 0);                                    } else{ // after reaching header bar                     jQuery("#table_1 thead th").css("transform", "translateY( " + (-top) + "px)");                     translate(jQuery("table th:nth-child(1)"), 0, -top);                     translate(jQuery("table td:nth-child(1)"), 0, 0);                 }            } else{ // after scrolling left                                if(top >= 0){                    jQuery("#table_1 thead th").css("transform", "translateY(0px)");                    translate(jQuery("table th:nth-child(1)"), -left + 46, 0);                    translate(jQuery("table td:nth-child(1)"), -left + 46, 0);                                    } else{                     jQuery("#table_1 thead th").css("transform", "translateY( " + (-top) + "px)");                     translate(jQuery("table th:nth-child(1)"), -left + 46, -top);                     translate(jQuery("table td:nth-child(1)"), -left + 46, 0);                     }                }            }
function translate(element, x, y) {
var translation = "translate(" + x + "px," + y + "px)"
element.css({      "transform": translation,       "-ms-transform": translation,          "-webkit-transform": translation,     "-o-transform": translation,      "-moz-transform": translation,   });
}

It is kind of messy, you definitely can't copy and paste and expect it to work for you. You need to spend some time to figure it out. Hope this helps everyone!"

So, hopefully this will help you out as well.

Best regards.

Hello again James.

Nothing special about licensing when you migrate the site.

When you are moving on live site from local or stage site we can suggest to use Plugin Duplicator. We use it and it's working fine, because he will transfer all the files and also the tables to database. 

Best regards.

Hey James.

That looks beautiful!

Would it be OK if we use the table like an example of what can be achieved with our plugin?

Kindest regards!

Great!

Thank you James!

If you have any more issues or questions feel free to open a new ticket, we will gladly help.
