Table export Umlaut-problem

    Hello Tobias,

    working with your Plugin is great.
    I created several tables and found a lot of solutions to custom changes in this forum.
    Still a few questions are left:
    1) my tables are in german and whenever I export them I get Umlaut-problems in the resulting csv. Is there any solution to this?
    2) is it possible to give the header round corners (all 4 corners)? In my tables the header row has got a background, but the rest of the table has got a transparent background and you see the page background image
    3) I made the header cell arrows for sorting vanish by using

    .dataTables_wrapper .tablepress .sorting:after,
    .dataTables_wrapper .tablepress .sorting_asc:after,
    .dataTables_wrapper .tablepress .sorting_desc:after {
    content: “”;
    }

    Now I am trying out the DataTables FixedHeader-Plugin and while scrolling down the arrows appear in the fixed header. I would like them to stay hidden. Is there an easy way to solve the problem?

    Thanks a lot for your always quick and very helpful replys, Gaby

    Hi Gaby,

    thanks for your post, and sorry for the trouble.

    1) This usually means that your site is somehow not using the UTF-8 character encoding everywhere. Where are you then seeing the Umlaut problems? Are the Umlauts shown correctly in a text editor when opening the CSV file there?

    2) Yes, that should be possible with some CSS code as well, e.g. https://ww.wp.xz.cn/support/topic/can-tablepress-do-this/

    3) For this, the CSS

    .tablepress .sorting,
.tablepress .sorting_asc,
.tablepress .sorting_desc {
  display: none;
}

    should be sufficient and work better.

    Regards,
    Tobias

    Hi Tobias,

    sorry for the delay.

    ad 1) the Umlaut-problem appears in the name of the exported .csv (tabel “Führungen” becomes F++hrungen.csv) and it also exists when I open the .csv in a text editor.

    ad 2) that worked! Sorry that I didn’t find that thread without bothering you (resolved)

    ad 3) With this piece of code the whole table header vanishes…

    Hi,

    1) That’s strange. Then something on your server or local computer is breaking the UTF-8 character encoding 🙁

    2) Great!

    3) Ah, my bad, there’s small mistake, please try again with

    .tablepress .sorting:after,
.tablepress .sorting_asc:after,
.tablepress .sorting_desc:after {
  display: none;
}

    Regards,
    Tobias
