I was struggling to put DataTables on my site, due to conflicts. This plugin solved
it all!! So much easier than trying to implement it manually. I can’t stress enough
how great this FREE plugin is! I will definitely be making a donation to the developer
for his hard work…. THANK YOU!!!!!!!

The great thing about this plugin is it works with any table, even if it is generated
outside of wordpress, or with another plugin. I’m not aware of any other plugin 
that does the same. Also it is based on the the extremely powerful and popular DataTables
jquery project. I just hope that the developer gets enough love to keep maintaining
the plugin.

### 󠀁[Great table styling + CSV export](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/great-table-styling-csv-export/)󠁿

Plugin is simple and allows you to style tables beautifully and easily. I am using
Formidable Forms that generate tables for me, so I could not use any plugins (TablePress
etc.) that require you to create a table or create SQL statement and have it saved
within plugin. My tables are generated dynamically by another plugin so none of 
table plugins worked for me. This plugin allows me to style my tables based on best
practices of DataTable for jQuery. But the biggest thing for me was to be able to
export data into CSV. Author of plugin graciously agreed to add Buttons extensions
to his plugin and I am now able to export to CSV and also Copy table data to clipboard.
Overall this is a great free plugin that allows you to do a lot with your table 
style. Thank you!
