 * I tried to browse into FAQ and forum answers, but I can’t find what I need.
 * I have a simple and stupid question. When i open tablepress plugin by default
   the order is 1 to last.
 * I wish to open it in the reverse order, from last back. I can’t see this in the
   setup, at least in the free version. Any advise?

 * Hi!
 * Thanks for your post and sorry for the trouble!
 * Just to be sure that I understand: Do you mean the data of your table? Then, 
   just sort it on the “Edit” screen, by double-clicking the column header cell (
   with the “A”, “B”, “C”, etc.).
 * Best wishes,
   Tobias

 * I have more than 500 hundred tables.
 * What I wish : open plugin Tablepress -> All Tables
 * right now the table list open from 1 to last, to go the the last one (and normally
   I copy the last and edit it) i need to press the ID colums and move by up/down
   arrow to the last.
 * is there a way to open the list of existing tables starting from the last one?
 * Please don’t tell me that I’m lazy … Yes I’m 😉

 * Hi,
 * Ah, now I see what you mean. Thanks for the explanation.
 * Unfortunately, I can only suggest to use the normal sorting features on this 
   screen, by clicking on the table’s column header as well. If you sort in descending
   order, that last table (with the highest ID) would be at the top.
 * You could also bookmark the resulting URL (it will look like
   [https://example.com/wp-admin/admin.php?page=tablepress&orderby=id&order=desc](https://example.com/wp-admin/admin.php?page=tablepress&orderby=id&order=desc))
   to directly get to the list of tables in the desired sort order.
 * Best wishes,
   Tobias
