You can take a look at this tutorial how you can add option for "Show X entries" using filters and actions but this will add new option on front-end - Video.
But if you want to add 1 entrie on settings page of the table so by the default table will show just 1 entrie, something like that will require customization of the plugin.
Thank you and i have tried the following code below. However, I need the table to display only 1 entry by default. Currently even with my code below, the default value is 10 entries automatically, which is not something i want. Can you please advise on the coding.
If i need to customise the plungin, what should I do?
Unfortunately something like that is not possible with built-in functionalities. If you are skillful with PHP and jQuery it is not hard to accomplish it. The file from you can start is located ../wp-content/plugins/wpdatatables/templates/edit_table.inc.php around line 390. If you need our assistance we can offer you our paid customization service.
Our customization service price is 50$/hour. Customization like this requires 1 hours of work. If you are interested I can send you invoice at your email address and we will implement this feature for you.
One more addition request. Can you please help me to adjust the filter input text bar to align to left - now I'm see a margin-left="10px". I want the margin-left to be zero.
Please advise when it can be done. SInce I have paid i expect the work to be delivered by 1st Sep 2016.
The 'Duplicate' functionality only duplicates the metadata for the table, i.e. display settings, not duplicating the actual data (MySQL table underneath). We added a workaround for that in version 1.7, there you can choose whether you want to duplicate the data as well or not, but version 1.7 is currently in Beta till early/mid September:
You can take a look explanation for that in this video - Link
If you wish you can get a Beta with the new features already now, but if you install it your customization will be overwritten.
I can write you what we have changed in code for customization and if you wish to update to higher version you can change few lines of code and you will also have option to select 1 entrie.
I will send you Beta version at your email address. If it's not in inbox please check your Spam or Junk folder. I will write you instructions for customization in another ticket later. It's better to implement by your own so you would know how to do it in later updates, but I will assist you if you can not work it out.
Unfortunately no, this was customization that we were working for James and it wouldn't be fair if we give you this code for free and he paid for it. If you are interested we can also offer you our paid customization service.
I would like to set display length for my table to 1 only. Please respond urgently. Thank you very much.
Can u help me to fix this? I dont know any programming.
Hi James,
Thank you for your purchase.
I don't understand your question. Can you explain me in more details what are you trying to achieve?
Please refer to the attachment screenshot. Essentially, I would like my table to display only 1 entry instead of the default option 10, 25 or 50.
Please let me know if still don't understand. Btw, i love your plungin. One of the best.
