Non-web people can make updates to the spreadsheets and have them immediately updated on the site. Users can then view those tables on their phones easily, filtering down to exactly what they need, without fighting the dreaded spreadsheet formatting. Plus, the support is top notch. I had a few questions that I emailed in and the response was quick, detailed and so helpful. I highly recommend to anyone that needs to display data on their websites! ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/c7bd754124e56b7706e5fef819fbbc70d3c74f642b45c830242fa93bcb997e70? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[Tablepress is highly adaptable](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/tablepress-is-highly-adaptable/)󠁿 [yomomoyo](https://profiles.wordpress.org/yomomoyo/) January 11, 2026 Extremely flexible and the support is excellent.

If your having problems with tables not showing check with you Hosting Co. There may be a block on some of the files that TablePress relies on. Only negative (well to me) is that you can’t build a form to update the table. But it lets you import and append so you can Construct the record in a text file with commas for delimiter. The go to the Import and chose the Table you want to append to, Done Basically easier than a form! Also make sure you pay attention to quotes double quotes Basically any malformed HTML will cause some really strange behavior. A Great Plugin with great support. ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/3a81c9fef52b614e09e2760e898264ca796efa20ff8fd4662292f135bb88c707? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[Great Plugin, Kind Support](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/great-plugin-kind-support/)󠁿 [alduinwf](https://profiles.wordpress.org/alduinwf/) December 28, 2025 I’ve been using this plugin since like forever, and it fulfills everything you could ever ask for from a table plugin. Strongly recommended! In case you do have a question or other assorted trouble, the support is quick to respond and very kind. Had a pleasant experience.
