## Description

BaraTables helps you turn site data into interactive tables and charts directly 
in WordPress. Build from manual rows, CSV uploads, WordPress content, or an external
MySQL/MariaDB database, then publish the result with a shortcode.

Already have tables elsewhere? Import a JSON, XML, or CSV export from another table
plugin or a spreadsheet, and BaraTables rebuilds it for you.

Tables can include search, sorting, pagination, filters, export buttons, column 
visibility controls, and custom control layouts. Charts can be created from any 
BaraTables table and displayed separately with their own shortcode.

BaraTables uses clean, theme-friendly frontend styles by default. It is designed
to look presentable immediately while staying easy to restyle with your theme or
custom CSS.

**Features:**

 * Build tables from WordPress content, CSV files, manual data, or external MySQL/
   MariaDB databases
 * Add search, sorting, pagination, and column filters
 * Use dropdown, multi-select, checkbox, and radio-style filters
 * Export table data to CSV, copy it, or print it
 * Reorder columns and control column visibility
 * Create bar, line, area, pie, and Gantt charts with ECharts
 * Customize table controls, labels, layout, and display options
 * Start with light frontend styles that are easy to override with CSS
 * Import an existing table from another plugin or a spreadsheet (JSON, XML, or 
   CSV)

## Installation

 1. Upload the `baratables` folder to `/wp-content/plugins/`.
 2. Activate the plugin through the Plugins menu in WordPress.
 3. Go to Tables in the admin menu and create your first table.
 4. Use the shortcode `[bara_table id="your-table-slug"]` to embed it.

## FAQ

### What data sources are supported?

CSV files from the media library, manual data entry via the admin editor, WordPress
content, and external MySQL/MariaDB databases.

### How do I add a chart?

Create a table first, then go to Charts and create a new chart linked to that table.
Use `[bara_chart id="your-chart-slug"]` to embed it.

### Can I customize the table appearance?

Yes. The Options tab provides controls for striping, hover effects, borders, compact
mode, pagination style, button labels, search text, and info display. You can also
arrange layout zones for full control over where controls appear.

### Can I style BaraTables with custom CSS?

Yes. BaraTables keeps its frontend design intentionally light so your theme can 
stay in control. You can use your theme stylesheet, the Site Editor, or additional
custom CSS to adjust colors, spacing, typography, borders, and button styles.

## Changelog

#### 1.1.1

Fixes:
 * Columns set to “Format as date” now display the formatted date (e.g. “
Mar 18, 2026”) on every data source (manual data, CSV, and external database), matching
how date columns from a WordPress query already behaved. * Date columns no longer
turn a plain number, such as a year or a count, into a 1970-era date. * A [bara_table]
or [bara_chart] shortcode used without an id no longer causes an error on WordPress
6.2 through 6.4; it shows a “not found” message instead. * Importing a file that
has only a header row, or no rows, now creates an empty table instead of adding 
blank placeholder rows. * Front-end table controls (the export buttons, the column-
visibility menu, and the “Search in” control) and the CSV file picker now follow
the site language instead of always showing English.

Security:
 * Hardened the table editor’s “Column heading” field against script injection(
XSS).

#### 1.1.0

New:
 * Import a table from another table plugin or a spreadsheet: upload a JSON
or XML table export, or a CSV file, and BaraTables creates a matching table for 
you. * Editable Table ID and Chart ID: rename a table’s or chart’s shortcode ID 
after it is created. Linked charts update automatically, and a notice reminds you
to update any [bara_table] / [bara_chart] shortcodes already placed in your content.*
Reorder manual-data rows directly in the editor with up and down controls. * Manual-
table column headers are now translation-ready and follow the site language.

Improvements:
 * Wide manual-data tables now scroll horizontally while keeping the
row number and row controls in view. * Paste tabular data straight from a spreadsheet
into the manual-data grid. * Smoother admin experience: one-click copy for shortcodes
and IDs, a Show/Hide help text preference, and fewer page reloads while configuring
a source.

Fixes:
 * Numeric columns now sort numerically instead of being mis-read as dates(
e.g. values like 3.15, 3.2, 3.9 sort in numeric order). * Fixed date columns that
mis-displayed far-future dates. * Security: hardened admin request handling and 
input validation.

#### 1.0.1

 * Improved date formatting controls for WordPress date columns, including support
   for the site’s default date format.
 * Security: hardened frontend table and chart configuration output.

#### 1.0.0

 * Initial release.
