The Delta County website is a central resource for everyone living and working in Delta County, Michigan. Residents can register to vote, apply for building permits, view board meeting minutes and even search old birth and death records. Brandon Couvillion created the site and he decided to install our Posts Table Pro plugin to create a WordPress document library.

Brandon first considered having someone else develop their site. After getting quotes ranging from $10,000 to $50,000, he reconsidered. Using WordPress and a few plugins Brandon was able to create the site for less than $500. And he's happy with our plugin and the end result:

Essential for organizing and sharing documents
Posts Table Pro made organizing and sharing documents on our site fast and easy. Users can sort and search through the documents to find what they need. It can also be as basic or as complicated as you need based on what you want to show users of the site. Best of all it's responsive so works well for mobile users too. The one issue I did have was quickly resolved with support.

Several pages in the 'Documents' section of the site are powered by Posts Table Pro, including the Board Agendas & Minutes, Ordinances and Forms & Applications. Each table can be sorted alphabetically, plus the table with large numbers of documents have 'quick find' filter dropdowns above the table.

Nico is a composer of background music for producers. He sells his background music tracks through his website - Nico Backing Tracks. Nico chose our WooCommerce Product Table plugin to list his backing tracks in a WooCommerce audio store, and he's so glad he did.

"Amazing plugin!" - Nico

Nico needed audio players embedded into the product list so his customers could listen to snippets of each track. Our WooCommerce Product Table plugin is perfect for this and much more. 

Each backing track is listed in a sortable table with the audio sample in the first column. The list can be sorted by reviews, price and the name of the track. The default setting shows the tracks listed in alphabetical order.

The drop down lets users decide whether they want to see 10, 25, 50 or 100 tracks at a time. And there's also a search function so customers can use keywords to search through the tracks.

Customers simply sort the Woo audio table to find what they're looking for, add the track to their cart and click view cart to make their purchase.

TVProductionContacts.com's mission is to connect people within the TV production industry. The site hosts an online directory of contacts. The directory includes the details for individual producers to production companies and even CEOs. Company details are free to view whereas individuals' contact details are hidden but available to purchase. This is where our WooCommerce Product Table plugin provided a perfect solution.

The directory has thousands of entries, but it's easy for visitors to the site to sort through the listings using the three dropdowns. You can filter the table by industry and location, and also choose whether you look for companies or people. There's also an option to use the search box at the top of the table if you know exactly who you're looking for.

Each contact's listing includes the company they work for, the shows they've worked on and the state they work in. The final two columns show the cost of purchasing the contact details as well as the add to cart button. When you've found the details you want, just click on the add to cart button to make your purchase and unlock the hidden information.

The site also uses Posts Table Pro to power the job board. Read about how TV Production Contacts uses Posts Table Pro here in our separate case study about TV Production Jobs.

Squarz is a cafe and bakery based in Tempe, Arizona. They also run a WordPress catering website. 

Squarz wanted to make it easy for customers to place larger orders online. Like many food businesses, they installed the WooCommerce Product Table plugin on their catering page. It allows Squarz to list their full selection of pies, pastries, salads and drinks in a bulk order form.

Some products have multiple variations and options that the customer must decide between. Standard variations weren't flexible enough for Squarz, so they used WooCommerce Product Table with the Product Add-Ons plugin to add extra dropdowns and tick boxes. Customers can make a selection before adding the product to their shopping cart.

The table has multiple columns including price, name and pie crust. The customer can sort the table by clicking on a column header. So if they're looking for purse-friendly pies, the customer just needs to click on the price column to see the cheapest products first.

International Thriller Writers, also known as ITW, is run by Christopher Graham. ITW is an organisation that represents authors from across the world, but also acts as a community for thriller writers.

Christopher's site has a private members directory of thriller, mystery and crime fiction authors. To help authors search for other members with particular skills or knowledge, ITW needed a plugin that could create a searchable database of members. With all of that in mind, Christopher chose to use our Posts Table Pro WordPress plugin.

Each member has a personal profile that lists their areas of interest and expertise. The profiles are all listed in a table which can be sorted by the tags used, clicking on the column, or with a simple keyword search.

So now when a member of ITW seeks expert advice, they can easily search for a suitably skilled writer. With more than 4,500 members, there's a mass of knowledge just waiting to be found. Once they've found a person with the right skills, they can get in contact with them to ask questions or chat.

IanMartin.com is a Canadian-based recruitment and project-staffing firm. They specialize in IT and engineering recruitment.

They needed a job board WordPress plugin which could list jobs in a required layout and handle custom post types. The plugin also needed to work with a plugin called Matador. Matador pulls jobs from the applicant tracking system, and the job ads are then displayed as custom post types. That's why IanMartin.com chose our Posts Table Pro plugin.

Posts Table Pro is ideal for IanMartin.com's job list. With the plugin, jobs can be divided into categories and industries, then filtered to requirements by the jobseeker. With the filter dropdown, jobseekers can quickly sort through and find jobs in their industry. And when users click on an industry in the table, it filters the job list by that industry.

The plugin has also been used to create lists of jobs from specific industries, separating those jobs from the central list of all jobs. An example of this is the Automotive jobs page - the job board on this page only displays jobs in the automotive sector.

Cardiac Output is a UK jobs site for cardiology vacancies. For more than twenty years Cardiac Output used a printed job bulletin. But with more people searching for jobs online, they realised they needed to build an online job board, too.

They used to have a different WordPress jobs site plugin, but weren't happy with the quality. Rebuilding the job board using the Posts Table Pro plugin was the obvious choice.

Users can now easily sort through the list of vacancies by using the search, sort and filter functions. Sorting the list by categories such as location and job title, or even filtering the table to just show the vacancies of interest keeps the job hunt quick and simple.

Posts Table Pro is a popular WordPress jobs plugin, and a lot of Barn2 customers use the plugin for this purpose. It works well for both those on the job hunt and the recruiter. Have a look at this plugin in action on the Cardiac Output Job Board. You can also read our full tutorial on how to set it up.

SuperConnection offers classes on self-improvement and personal development. It is a worldwide organisation with members and expert consultants spread across the globe. They have a WordPress member directory that lists all of their consultants.

SuperConnection's consultant directory needed to be in the format of an interactive table that users can quickly search and sort. For that reason Posts Table Pro was the obvious choice.

Consultants are now listed in a table with two simple columns. One for the consultant's name and another for their location. Although the consultants have been listed in alphabetical order, there's still an option to sort through the data by clicking on a column or using the search box. This makes it easy for visitors to find a consultant in their area.

Individual member profiles for each consultant are just one simple click from the directory. The profiles include extra custom fields such as contact details, a location map and the services offered.

See for yourself how SuperConnection have helped their website users search through a long list of expert consultants.

TVProductionContacts.com is the place to go to find contact details of people in the television production industry. It connects people in the same industry and facilitates networking. The site needed several filterable tables, including a sortable job board - and the Posts Table Pro plugin was the solution.

Job seekers can filter the job board by using one of the four dropdowns which include the location and rate. It's easy to scan through the information quickly as the table is arranged in multiple columns. It's also possible to sort by job title or date posted.

When you're ready to find out more details about a job, you just click on the plus sign and the table expands to show everything you need to know.

Elsewhere on the site, hiring managers can post jobs on the board by filling out a simple form. The form is powered by the Gravity Forms plugin and the Gravity Forms + Custom Post Types add-on. All the information is submitted via the form and automatically added to the table once it's been approved.

TVProductionContacts.com's creator is delighted with how Posts Table Pro has helped his site. He said:

She's extremely knowledgeable and super fast at responding - thank you Katie!
