This is my WordPress table. I created an array so that I could try it out, but I need to add classes and IDs so I can use CSS to style it like the top level plugin page.
How can I add classes to the table elements?
<?php
if(!class_exists('WP_List_Table')){
require_once( ABSPATH . 'wp-admin/includes/class-wp-list-table.php' );
}
class TT_Example_List_Table extends WP_List_Table {
var $example_data = array(
array(
'ID' => 1,
'title' => '300',
'rating' => 'R',
'director' => 'Zach Snyder'
),
array(
'ID' => 2,
'title' => 'Eyes Wide Shut',
'rating' => 'R',
'director' => 'Stanley Kubrick'
),
array(
'ID' => 3,
'title' => 'Moulin Rouge!',
'rating' => 'PG-13',
'director' => 'Baz Luhrman'
),
array(
'ID' => 4,
'title' => 'Snow White',
'rating' => 'G',
'director' => 'Walt Disney'
),
array(
'ID' => 5,
'title' => 'Super 8',
'rating' => 'PG-13',

array(
'ID' => 6,
'title' => 'The Fountain',
'rating' => 'PG-13',

array(

'title' => 'Watchmen',

The only way to do this is by overriding some of the methods of the
WP_List_Tableclass.I went ahead and modified your class to support conditional HTML classes for each tr/td in the table. You weren’t clear enough about to which elements you want classes applied, nor how exactly you want to specify that, so excuse me if it’s not what you wanted(and please specify further details).
You can see the full code(only the
TT_Example_List_Tableclass is there – the rest is the same) here.Basically you define a class property called
$cond_classes. This property is a multidimensional array of conditions. In there you have two top-level keys which are reserved – “odd” and “even”. As you can guess they will be accessed for each row that is either odd or even.The rest of the top-level keys can be column id’s or item ID’s.
Each top-level key can hold either an array or a string
If the top-level key holds a string, then when this condition is met, that class is added
If the top-level key holds an array, then it’s looped through.
The second-level array can have string values and key=>value pairs, where the key is the class and the value
is an array of conditions.
I guess that’s quite confusing, but the example bellow should give you an idea of how this works.
var $cond_classes = array( 'odd' => array( 'odd-class', // This class will always be given to odd rows and their columns 'special-odd-class' => array( // This class will only be given to odd rows and their columns if the rows is for an item with ID 1, 4 or 7 'ID' => array( 1, 4, 7 ) ) ), 'even' => array( 'even-class' ), 'title' => array( 'custom_title_class', 'special_title_class' => array( 'ID' => array( 3, 7 ), // This will only be given to the "title" column for an item with ID 3 or 7 'title' => 'The Fountain', // This will only be given to the "title" column for an item with title "The Fountain" ), ), 7 => 'id_7_class', // This will be given to a row and it's columns for item with ID 7 );And you can see the applied classes in the resulting table:
Hope that helps! If you have any questions – go ahead 🙂
