    Hi,

    sorry, I have no real clue what you mean here. How is this is related to TablePress? Are you using it for the data storage here?

    Sorry. That was not clear.

    Have a look at this page where I have created some hyperlink query strings:

    These are passed to a simple PHP script that constructs the shortcode to filter my main table. The shortcode is executed with the function do_shortcode.

    As you see the output display is rather basic.

    My question was: which template could I adapt or use to display the output – or are they all pretty much the same?

    That may not be a question you can answer. I don’t know a lot about templates yet so any info can help.

    Thanks

    Hi,

    thanks for the explanation. With “template” do you mean a file in your theme?

    Unfortunately, I don’t see an easy way here (because I don’t really know how you want things to look like). All output generated by TablePress will always be an HTML table, which somewhat restricts the layout and design. Your only real chance to style those tables is with CSS code.

    Thanks

    Yes I was probably trying to things too complicated. I’ve followed your hint and a mixture of PHP and CSS does the job well enough:

    Hi,

    yes, that looks nice and shows a good overview for that category.

    Best wishes,
