How to Create Tables in WordPress with TablePress Plugin

About TablePress
TablePress allows you to create and manage tables in WordPress Site. You can import the tables into posts, pages, or text widgets with a simple Shortcode. Table data can be edited in a speadsheet-like interface, so no coding is necessary. Tables can contain any type of data, even formulas that will be evaluated.

How to Use TablePress

Step 1: Login to your wordpress and add a new plugin search TablePress on your search box
Step 2:  After Installing Activate the plugin
Step 3: After activate Select the TablePress on your dashboard
Step 4:  To start Click the Add new option,
Step 5: Create your table name and enter the description (optional) and specify the dimensions of your table (number of rows & columns). and finally select Add table
Step 6:  On the next page, your table will be assigned an ID and a shortcode you’ll use to add the table into your posts and pages. Then start filling out the individual cells of your new table.

Step 7: Scroll down on the same page you can play around with some basic options. You can insert links/images in your cells, duplicate/delete selected rows and columns, add CSS classes for styling purposes, combine cells, alternate color by row, enable sorting/pagination, and more.
The plugin automatically assumes that your first row is the header row for the table, but you do have the option to prevent that and even change the last row to a table footer.
Step 8: Once you are all done editing the table next click the “save changes” button, then the “preview” button at the way down at the bottom to get a basic idea of what your table will look when inserted in a post or page.




Step 9: Remember the shortcode, since it was the first one I created, the shortcode is [table id=1 /].
Once you have the shortcode, the only thing left to do is insert the table into a post/page.

Here’s an example of what the final output will look like on a website.
