Thanks Tobias,
That’s fixed it ??

Happy New Year,

Ken

Yes, I forgot about times for the edit.

The table with over 7,700 rows takes about a minute to load and, in Chrome, when trying to edit the rows Chrome becomes unusable whereas Firefox does a better job but it still does take time. As I’m only editing a few rows at a time – adding hyperlinks in one column – it’s something I can work with, but, when adding rows to the table I prepare the extra rows in Excel and import the data, appending to the table.

Kind regards,

Ken

Hi Alex – I’m not Tobias so he may have more accurate information.

I run the Hymn Society of Great Britain and Ireland website. We use TablePress for a number of tables, the biggest page is our interactive index of Bulletins which has over 16,000 rows split into 7 tables, currently the largest single table is just over 7,700 rows. The page: https://hymnsocietygbi.org.uk/resources/interactive-bulletin-indexes/
takes a few seconds to load, but this is just the browser getting the data. Once the data is there the tables work really fast.

Kind regards,

Ken

Thank, Tobias, I just had to add

div.dt-button-background {
  display: none !important;
}

to get it to work, but it’s all good now ??

Thanks Tobias, that works ??

The only thing that’s not working though is the individual drop down Column Visibility buttons – they don’t hide the selected column(s).

Kind regards,

Ken

Brilliant! Thank you so much.

Thanks very much, Tobias, great support!

Thank you very much, Tobias, you provide the best support!

All good now.

Hi Tobias,

Thank you very much. The first suggestion works great regarding font size. The !important flag also works to some extent – it doesn’t seem to take into account the sorting button to the right of the column title, which I’ve not been able to nail down. I can live with this if it is not easy to fix.

However, the other thing is that the Fixed Header is only responsive to a certain extent, once it goes below 768px for this table it remains fixed, unlike the table which has a responsive command throughout the responsive addon. Is there a way to make this fixed header responsive too? If not is there a way to hide it below 768px?

Thanks in advance,

Kind regards,

Ken

Thanks very much Tobias, that’s perfect!

I have another question but will open a separate thread as it’s not connected to this.

Best wishes,

Ken

Thanks for getting back, Tobias, much appreciated and it’s no trouble, I’m sure it’s just a bit of css.

I’ve set up a temporary page with one table to show an example – the normal pages these tables are on are currently for members only.
