Besides a fresh and modern look of the TablePress screens, here are the highlights of TablePress 2.0:

Completely new “Edit” screen for tables

• TablePress now has an even more spreadsheet-like user interface that makes working with large tables a breeze.
• Editing will be much faster: A right-click context menu allows for quick access to the table manipulation tools.
• A keyboard shortcut for saving changes will save a lot of scrolling.

Block editor support instead of having to deal with Shortcodes

• The new “TablePress table” block will give you a preview of the table when inserting it into a post or page, for a more intuitive embedding of tables. You won’t even have to remember the table ID, as a table search is included.
• And if you want, converting existing Shortcodes is just two clicks away.

Easier styling of tables with CSS variables

• You can now use CSS variables instead of complex CSS selectors for quicker and easier styling changes, in particular of table colors.
• The CSS selectors in the default CSS have been simplified for higher compatibility with more themes.

Importing tables is easier and more powerful than ever

• Simply drag&drop files to import them — even multiple files at once, even of different formats!
• No more need to choose the import file format: The auto detection will know if it’s a CSV, Excel, HTML, or JSON file.
• In addition, more file formats are recognized, like the LibreOffice ODS format.
• The Excel import is much more powerful: For example, clickable links and simple styling will be recognized and imported!
• The Replace/Append select box also has a live-search with autocomplete now, making finding the right table much faster.

New formula calculation engine

• TablePress now understands many more formulas, just as you know them from Excel!
• The formulas even support text strings now, which enables many new ways of automatically creating table content.
• When exporting tables, potentially dangerous formulas will be escaped, to increase protection against CSV injection attacks.

Премиум-версия

• Even more great features for you and your site’s visitors and priority email support are available with a Premium license plan of TablePress. Go check them out!
