WordPress Plugin Review: WP-Table Reloaded – For Good Looking Tables In WordPress

[This is Day #5 of 5 Plugins in 5 Days]

Unfortunately inserting tables of data into WordPress is quite difficult to do.

In fact there are only 3 ways you can do it:

1. Hand coding it in HTML view (no thanks!)
2. Copy/pasting it into HTML view from an HTML editor like Dreamweaver (annoying!)
3. Or by using the WP-Table Reloaded plugin for WordPress (yay!)

I chose the 3rd option every time.

Now, I will admit, the interface is a little tricky to use at first, but once you’ve got used to it, you’ll love it as much as I do for sure.

4 Reasons Why You Need the WP-Table Reloaded Plugin

1. Once you’ve added CSS styles it can look really cool
2. Row highlighting when your mouse hovers over is a cool effect and only takes a click to activate
3. Once you get used to the interface (which is a little bit crazy the first time), it is very easy to use
4. It is easy to duplicate a table you’ve created (so you don’t have to start from scratch)
