    hey guys,

    Curious… Is it possible to have one table that’s a list of data from other tables in table press?

    Basically:

    1 main table contains a schedule that pulls the data from 3 other tables.
    those 3 other tables contain: description, date, time
    main table pulls data from 3 tables, sorts it by date/time and displays it.

    Hi,

    thanks for your post, and sorry for the trouble.

    No, sorry, something like this is not directly possible. (Except if you use the Single Cell Shortcode Extension from https://tablepress.org/extensions/table-cell-shortcode/ for each individual cell.)

    You could however maybe do it the other way around: You could manage all your data in one big table, and add an extra (hidden) column that indicates (by a keyword) to which of the three smaller tables a row shall belong. Then, you can use the Row Filter Extension from https://tablepress.org/extensions/row-filter/ to filter the big table by those keywords to create the small tables.

    Regards,
    Tobias
