TablePress 2.3.2 fixes a minor security issue and a few bugs. For more information on changes and new features in TablePress 2.3.x, please see below.

  • Security hardening (breaking change): Users with the “Author” user role are no longer allowed to import tables from URLs (CVE-2024-4354). Thanks to the Wordfence team and to Tobias Weißhaar for following responsible disclosure policies when reporting this potential issue!
  • Bugfix: Improve the data type detection during an Excel import to reduce undesired consequences.
  • Bugfix: Properly clean up after importing a file.
  • Bugfix: Restore the data selection feature in the “Custom Search Builder” module. (TablePress Max only.)
  • Enhancement: Increase compatibility with sites that remove WordPress user interface elements for certain users.
  • Enhancement: Improve the user experience when dragging/dropping buttons in the “Buttons” module. (TablePress Pro and Max only.)
  • Several external code libraries and build tools have been updated to benefit from enhancements and bug fixes.

TablePress 2.3.1 contains these changes:

  • Bugfix: Fix an error in the legacy import that accidentally broke an old and retired TablePress Extension.
  • Enhancement: Improve the sorting on the “Edit” and “Automatic Periodic Table Import” screens and of the “Column Filter Dropdowns” feature module.
  • Several external code libraries and build tools have been updated to benefit from enhancements and bug fixes.

TablePress 2.3 is a feature, stability, maintenance, and compatibility update. Here are the highlights:

  • Full compatibility with WordPress 6.5.
  • Feature: The “Automatic Periodic Table Import” feature module has been rewritten from scratch: It now supports a different import interval or schedule for each table and is much more reliable. (TablePress Max only.)
  • Enhancement: The import of multiple tables from a ZIP file is more robust and now works independently from the server configuration.
  • Enhancement: The user interface works more reliably even when other plugins insert code on the TablePress screens.
  • Enhancement: The “TablePress table” block settings are less confusing as the unsupported “Alignment” setting was removed.
  • Enhancement: The “Automatic Filter” feature module now uses less-restrictive input filtering, to allow for more filtering terms, e.g. from different alphabets. (TablePress Pro and Max only.)
  • Enhancement: The “About” screen now shows more useful troubleshooting information.
  • Bugfix: The “Column Filter Dropdowns” feature module now properly handles multiple line breaks in table cells. (TablePress Pro and Max only.)
  • Cleaned up and simplified code, for easier future maintenance, to follow WordPress Coding Standards, and to offer helpful inline documentation.
  • Updated external libraries to benefit from enhancements and bug fixes.
  • Automated code compatibility checks and build tools simplify chores for easier development.
