Create first table

From WP Admin, access to CloudTable. Lets create your first DataTable here. Quick note:

DataTable: as its name, this is your data storage. CloudTable will sync Google Sheets into DataTable. Later, we will add a table block and select the DataTable we want to use in your content.

• DataTable name: Your data table name, keep the name short and memorable.
• Google Sheets URL: Your Sheets URL which will be sync.
  *You share your Sheet as public with view-only role.
• Sheet name: Your Google Sheets may have multi sheets, DataTable is only a table, lets select one and fill its here (“Sheet1” for instance).
• Refresh time: Set the refresh time to determine how frequently your table syncs with Google servers (in minutes).

From your content, add a new CloudTable block that fits your need:

• Static Table: It’s a simple HTML table, we can use this block in most cases.
• Dynamic Table: It’s a data grid table that supported pagination and search features. The data will be rendered a part that the user needs, saving a lot of time on loading. This block is suitable for a big table from your Google Sheets.

After selecting your block. Now, select the data datatable you want and the theme that you like. The result from preview mode on the editor may surprise you!

CloudTable Shortcode

Static table Shortcode:

[cloudtable_static id='<datatable_id>' theme='<theme_code>']

Dynamic table Shortcode:

[cloudtable_dynamic id='<datatable_id>' theme='<theme_code>']

Or just simply, you can click to View your datatable, then quickly copy the shortcode there.

Default themes

Using theme code below to apply the theme to Shortcode (if you use).

Custom your theme

In case default themes are not fit to your site, you can customize it by yourself. All these colors are available as variables. Here’s how you can use these in your CSS, the code will apply to all themes:

.cloudtable-container {
    --ct-border-color: <border_color>;
    --ct-border-radius:  <border_radius>;
    --ct-active-color: <active_color>;
    --ct-bg-color: <background_color>;
    --ct-header-bg-color: <header_background_color>;
    --ct-header-text-color: <header_text_color>;
    --ct-text-color: <text_color>;
    --ct-row-hover: <row_hover_color>;
    --ct-row-even-bg-color: <rows_even_color>;
    --ct-box-shadow: <css_shadow>;
    --ct-arrow: <svg_icon>;
}

If you want to custom one of our default themes, just changing .cloudtable-container to the theme code. For example:

.ct-theme-dark {
   // variables as example above
}

Next version

I’m currently in the progress of development the Cell block – which has ability to display a cell value from DataTable to your content. Sure, it will be synced with Google Sheets as well! It’s significantly help you save a lot of time to update your content, especially when you have a lot of sites working on.
