Hi, Heather

Thanks for reaching out to us.

Sorry, but we still don't have a built-in way of achieving this; and the code did change a bit since that ticket, you are correct. Here is how to remove "ALL" from the selection for the time being:

Open the same PHP file suggested on that ticket

 ../wp-content/plugins/wpdatatables/source/class.wpdatatable.php ;

search for this piece of code using CTRL+F :

$obj->dataTableParams->aLengthMenu

there are two lines to edit, close to each other, with the same looking code:

$obj->dataTableParams->aLengthMenu = json_decode('[[1,5,10,25,50,100,-1],[1,5,10,25,50,100,"' . __('All', 'wpdatatables') . '"]]');

on both lines, delete these two highlighted section :

;

so in the end it should look like this :

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

- Sorry for the inconvenience, but for the time being, that is correct; whenever the plugin updates, you will have to overwrite the PHP code.

- I will speak to the developers to see if possible to add this as a feature in the future; to have the ability to choose to remove "ALL rows" as a built-in setting.

You can add your suggestion as well, for this as a built-in feature on this link https://wpdatatables.com/documentation/feature-suggestion/ and our developers would place it on their "TO-DO" list.

As more customers request a feature, it gets pushed quicker on the list. We always strive to make our product better and deliver the most value to our end users, so we carefully review each suggestion.
