Improved accessibility -wpDataTables

  • Thank you for a great plugin with lots of features.
    Could you improve a few things related to accessibility.

    1. When the page is zoomed in, the table layout does not change to responsive (even after refreshing the page again).
    2. When changing the size of the browser window, the table layout does not change to responsive (only after refreshing the page again).
    3. Tables do not have a (caption) title tag.

    Hello,
    thank you for these suggestions and feedback.
    I presume that this is for the Simple Table type?
    – For other table types, their Responsive feature will load without the need to refresh the page, but for Simple tables, you are correct, they currently have certain limitations and their responsive feature is completely different.
    We will pass these suggestions to our developers, and they will do their best to work on this in the future, we just can’t promise any ETA at this time.

    Thank you for your reply.
    Yes, I use “Simple table”, because only in this type in the free version of the plugin I can enter data manually.
    In fact, in the premium version of the plugin, the responsiveness capabilities are much greater.
    I will be grateful for extending the responsiveness function in the free version of the plugin for the ‘Simple table’ type.

    Hello,
    as far as Simple Table type goes, the functionality is the same for Simple Tables in the Lite/free version and premium plugin version.
    –
    And the responsiveness function is also the same, if you pick any other table type, in the Lite version, compared to premium version.
    So if you make a table linked to Excel, CSV, etc, you will notice the same responsive options,
    as you can try on our Demo Sandbox site for the premium version.

    But we will pass your feedback to our developers, in terms of improving the responsiveness for Simple Tables.
    Thank you for the suggestions once again.
