    Is there any way that we can add options to the "Select _ Entries" dropdown menu? For example, we are wanting to add options for 250 and 500 rows per page, since the jump from 100 rows, to all rows is a little too much. Thanks!

    Hi Dalton

    Thank you for reaching out to us.

    Something like this will require some code changing which is not included in our support I'm afraid.  

    I can tell you where to look but please be aware that these changes will be lost after the update of the plugin.

    This is a guide for adding 1000 - you would simply replace 1000 with the desired number.

    You need to open this file: ../wp-content/plugins/wpdatatables/templates/admin/table-settings/table_settings_block.inc.php and around line 335 you'll see this:

    <select class="form-control selectpicker" id="wdt-rows-per-page">   <option value="1">1</option>   <option value="5">5</option>   <option value="10">10</option>   <option value="25">25</option>   <option value="50">50</option>   <option value="100">100</option>   <option value="-1"><?php _e('All', 'wpdatatables'); ?></option>
    </select>

    You can replace the last option (All) with the 1000 option, like this:

    <select class="form-control selectpicker" id="wdt-rows-per-page">   <option value="1">1</option>   <option value="5">5</option>   <option value="10">10</option>   <option value="25">25</option>   <option value="50">50</option>   <option value="100">100</option>   <option value="1000">1000</option>
    </select>
    

     And you'll have that option in the "Display" tab above the table:

    Then, open ../wp-content/plugins/wpdatatables/source/class.wpdatatable.php and around line 3207, and replace "All" with 1000, so it looks like this:

    $obj->dataTableParams->aLengthMenu = json_decode('[[1,5,10,25,50,100,1000],[1,5,10,25,50,100,1000]]');
    

    And the last thing to do is to go to line 499 of the same file, and modify it so it looks like this:

    public function setDisplayLength($length) {        if (!in_array($length, array(1, 5, 10, 12, 20, 25, 30, 50, 52, 100, 200, 1000))) {            return false;        }
    

    So, again, replace -1 with 1000.

    You may also want to add the value in ../wp-content/plugins/wpdatatables/templates/admin/table-settings/column_settings_panel.inc.php around line 570, if you wish to add that value to possible column options (if you have a select-box filter, or selectbox editor input type, this would be the number of values displayed in those drop-downs).

    Please make sure to delete cache in your browser after you apply the changes.
