    Hello Janzen.

    Thank you for your purchase.

    Yes, if the table is linked to the Google Spreadsheet it will be updated automatically when you make changes in that file. 

    Although, when using Google Spreadsheets as the data source please note 2 things:

    1. The data is read from the data source every time the page loads, so when your tables are large (more than 2000-3000 cells) this source won’t be the right choice since the page with large tables will load slow, or even crash after reaching a certain size.
    2. There is a cache on the Google side, so when you update the table it might take up to 5-15 minutes to be reflected in wpDataTable.

    Please note: Once you create a table from a Google Spreadsheet, changes in the core file from which a table is created, like:

    • Changing the column’s name,
    • Changing the column’s order,
    • Deleting the column, and
    • Adding a new column.

    are highly not recommended, because the old table will not work, at the moment. If you make any of these changes, please recreate the table again.

    Best regards.

    Kind Regards,
