Hello,
To begin, I want to extend my heartfelt apologies for the delayed reply,
which is due to an unexpectedly high volume of inquiries.
We truly value your patience during this period.
I am not sure if we understood your use-case fully.
If you need to set a Conditional Logic that would trigger CSS to hide the Table footer only in case when some filtering is active,
and to not trigger when there is no filtering, at this moment we do not have a solution for that, but advanced Column filters are not available in the Lite version, so we presume you are a Premium user?
Since you’re using the Premium version of the plugin, please open a ticket on our main Support platform here,
and one of our Agents will respond as quickly as possible.
Premium products are not supported in these forums, as per this comment by ww.wp.xz.cn moderators.
Thank you for understanding.
Kind regards.
Hi there,
My only question is if it is possible to add a custom class to a table using the free version?
Thanks

Hello,
We apologise for a late reply to this.
Yes, in the Free version you won’t have the “Customize” section for each Table in the Table settings, but you can add Custom Classes in any Table Column, then you can call that CSS class in the main Plugin settings/Custom JS and CSS/Custom CSS, and you can write any custom style you need there.
–
So any table that has that class added to any column will be applied.
–
If you wish to target a specific Table ID only, you can add the Table ID in your CSS code, exactly as you already did before :
.wpDataTableID-140 tfoot {
display: none;
}
–
So for each Table, then you would need to add a new CSS line and target the Table ID like that.
But we don’t understand what you mean when you say to add a Custom Class to a Table.
You can add a class to any Column of a Table, in the Column’s Display Settings, but you can not add a Class to an entire Table’s HTML container if that is what you meant, or for example to add a Custom CSS Class to a footer of some Tables, etc.
At the moment you can just add a Custom Class to a Column, or if you use an URL Column – you can add a class to a Button in that Column also with the built in Column settings.

We hope that helps to clarify the current capabilities.
If you have an idea how we might improve that, you can make a development suggestion.
Please feel free to search on our suggestions page (https://features.wpdatatables.com/), to see if someone may be already suggested this feature.

I was hoping to add a class to a table such as
<table class="custom-class">
so that I can target every table, regardless of table ID.
Hello,
Thank you for that clarification.
We presumed that you meant something like that.
At the moment, it is not possible with our current built-in features.
Right now, we can only add a custom CSS class to a Column directly, in each Column Display settings, and only other way is to add a class to a cell, row, or a column via our Conditional Formatting, which is not available in the free/Lite version, but other than that, it is not possible in free or Premium version to add a class to the entire Table.
You can add a development suggestion as advised above and our devs will do their best to add this in the future.
Best regards.
