Hello Andrei

Thank you for your purchase.

To remove the SUM symbol from the footer, you need to open ../wp-content/plugins/wpdatatables/assets/js/wpdatatables/wpdatatables.js and around line 595 find this line of code:

var sumLabel = tableDescription.sumFunctionsLabel ? tableDescription.sumFunctionsLabel : '& #8721; = ';

Just remove "& #8721; = " from the end, so it looks like this:

var sumLabel = tableDescription.sumFunctionsLabel ? tableDescription.sumFunctionsLabel : ' ';

And it will remove the SUM symbol.

You would need to disable "Use minified wpDataTables Javascript" slider in wpDataTables settings/Custom JS and CSS tab.

The calculation functions shortcodes are being pulled from ../wp-content/plugins/wpdatatables/controllers/wdt_functions.php, so around line 635 you'll see this:

$attributes['label'] = get_option('wdtSumFunctionsLabel') ? get_option('wdtSumFunctionsLabel') : '& #8721; =';

Just remove the code for the symbol again, and that's it.

Hello there.

We just tested this, by removing the code for the SUM symbol, and after the minified JS option was disabled, it worked fine:

Since this was an old response, the line where you need to remove '& #8721; = ' is 830 instead of 595.

When you disable this option, it pulls the data from the .js files instead of .min.js files which are compressed files to speed up the plugin. If you don't have millions of rows in your tables, and you have a decent hosting plan, this won't affect the speed.

Thank you for your assistance, Jay.

We're glad to see people helping each other here!
