    Hi,
    Great plugin! I got it working with basic options. I would like to have an option to export data to excel / csv and possibly to pdf (Buttons extension). Are those included into your plugin? How would I go about adding those options to my table?
    Thank you!

  • Hi Veronica, Did you find how to make this work? I’m trying to use columnsToggle which uses buttons and haven’t been able to get it working yet.

    Hi,
    I contacted plugin developer and he graciously agreed to add buttons functionality to this plugin within a week or so. I am waiting! I will update here once it is done.

    This is from the author:
    Get plugin from https://github.com/samsk/wp-datatable.
    Add fat=”1″ to shortcode to enable bigger DT.

    He will be updating it here as well.

    I have not tested yet, planning to do it within couple of days. ?? Hope it helps!

    Latest plugin with added Buttons extension and export to csv/excel has been released as version 0.2.3.
    For usage of Button extension see manual – https://datatables.net/extensions/buttons/.

    ie.

    
[wp-datatable id="mtable" fat="1"]
    dom: 'Bfrtip',
    paging: true,
    responsive: true,
    ordering: true,
    buttons: [
        'copy', 'csv'
    ]
[/wp-datatable]

    Note that this plugin only provides datatables functionality for your tables, to configure each table to your needs, you have to consult manual of datatables and its extensions (https://datatables.net/manual/index), and use proper config options inside of shortcode.
