I'm not sure I understand what you're trying to do.
Posts from the database can be pulled into a table using SQL queries, and if you need to filter by a specific category, you can assign a placeholder in column's Predefined filtering value, which could then be used to filter the table through the shortcode.
For example, if you add %VAR1% as a predefined filtering value to column1, you can add the table on front-end with [wpdatatable id=1 var1='test1'], then on another page with [wpdatatable id=1 var1='test2'] and so on.
Hi,
I have seen some of the demos.
Can I automagically connect a table to posts where categories or tags can be used for filtering along with the other options ?
