    Dear all,

    This looks like a fantastic plugin! Thank you so much for your work.

    I would like to use it to display the content of a csv file which is hosted on Dropbox. I tried the following line of code but it does not display the table:

    [table file="https://www.dropbox.com/s/rh0kevgcpphhg45/test.csv"][/table]

    Could anyone advise me how to display a csv file which is hosted on Dropbox?

    Thankfully,

    ~Robert

    Hello orschiro,
    I’m glad if you like Easy Table 🙂
    However, at this time. Easy Table does not supports external link such as including (but not limited to) Dropbox and Google Spreadsheet.

    Dear takien,

    Thank you so much for your response!

    So, this example only works because the file is hosted on the same domain than the blog?

    It’s actually not restricted to ‘same domain’, but for Google Drive and Dropbox, there’s should be a redirect to access it’s direct link which is Easy Table currently not capable to handle this.

    Thanks takien!

    In fact, appending ?raw=1 to the URL seems to solve the problem.
