Accessibility Issue

    Hi there.

    If a table footer is set to “0”, to not have a table footer, TablePress puts in an empty <tfoot></tfoot>. This creates a Level A accessibility issue. As an organization under state regulation for accessibility, we are obligated be AA compliant. Plus, it’s the right thing to do. I’m hoping this could be a relatively simple fix for you.

    If you can, can you please remove the table footer tags to tables that do not have table footers? Thanks so much!

    Hi @avsualr!

    Thanks for your post and sorry for the trouble!

    Good news: This will be fixed in TablePress 3.1, likely coming in February! 🙂

    In the mean time, you can already fix this on your site by adding a bit of CSS code (which can be removed after updating to TablePress 3.1). Please add this to the “Custom CSS” text area on the “Plugin Options” screen of TablePress:

    .dt-container .tablepress tfoot:empty {
        display: none;
    }

    Best wishes,
    Tobias
