 * Hi!
 * Hope you can help me on this one. I am trying to output custom fields of posts
   to a tabular format, whereas I would like my visitors to sort and search the 
   table to find what they need and then click on it.
 * For example:
    I have added these custom fields to my posts: Date: YYYY-MM-DD 
   Price: €XXX.XX City: XXXXXXX The number of posts with this data is 100. Clear
   so far?
 * So, in the output there are three columns with custom field data of posts for
   date / price / city and the first row is the header.
 * Is it possible to do so with WP Table Reloaded? How?
    And if not, what can I 
   do to work this out?
 * Thanks already for your response!!!
 * Bjorn

 * Hi Bjorn,
 * thanks a lot for your question.
 * Unfortunately, this is not possible with WP-Table Reloaded, as the plugin can
   only display static data, but not data that is coming from a dynamic source like
   the WordPress database.
 * You can however achieve this without the plugin:
    You will need to create and
   run a “Loop” which fetches all your posts. Then, for each post of the result,
   simply print your custom fields within HTML tags for a table.
 * To then make everything searchable and sortable, you can manually load and use
   the DataTables JavaScript library from [http://www.datatables.net](http://www.datatables.net).
   
   That’s the same library that WP-Table Reloaded uses.
 * Best wishes,
    Tobias

 * Hi Tobias,
 * Thank you very much for your response. Too bad I can’t use it directly with WP
   Table Reloaded. It would be a powerful feature though.
 * I will have to find a way to fix it and since I am not a programmer I was hoping
   for a plugin 🙂
    Again, thanks for helping!
