 * Hello, Tobias. Embedding TablePress tables into a page or post is a breeze but
   is there any way to include a permalink to the table itself? Essentially, what
   you have as a Preview, but public-facing? Am I making SENSE? Thanks!

 * Hi,
 * thanks for your question, and sorry for the trouble.
 * No, sorry, that’s not possible, or at least I don’t see a way. Tables don’t have
   a public-facing view until they are embedded into a post or page.
 * Regards,
    Tobias

 * Understood. Thanks for the quick response. *crosses fingers for future implementation*

 * Hi,
 * no problem, you are very welcome!
    I can’t really make hopes here for a future
   implementation, as I don’t really see the use case for this. What are you trying
   to achieve with such a permalink?

 * Shareable data chunks. It’d be great to be able to point someone directly to 
   a specific table and not have them scroll down through a bunch of content to 
   see it on its embedded page. Thinking there’s a CPT solution but not sure how/
   if it could interact with your plugin in its current form.

 * Hi,
 * ok, but how would that table be styled? And would it use the DataTables JS library’s
   features? What about interaction with TablePress Extensions?
    See, there are 
   quite a few open questions that would have to be answered there, so that just
   creating a WordPress page (which could e.g. use a very simple/minimalistic page
   template from the theme) is probably the best approach here.

 * Oh, I was thinking it would still be displayed in a page template, albeit a minimal
   one, defined by the theme. Just the table, a little branding, and a nice, clean
   permalink. “website.com/tables/best-tacos” or some such.

 * Hi,
 * yeah, that’s also what I had in mind above, but I think this would be best solved
   on a custom per-site basis, using created pages with such a page template.
