wp-admin table lists – like post list
Is there a API or something to build table lists in wp-admin?
With table lists I mean like the list of posts for example. It has columns, sorting, paging and so on.
Admin loop – the right way
When I create my loop I want it to look and feel like the core code, build it the right way.
No API? Give me an article
If there are no API like this, maybe point me to a great article about how to create it the best way possible.
Yes, in version 3.1
WP_List_Tableclass was introduced and admin started to move to using it.As of 3.2.x it currently is not officially declared to be stable API to be used by developers, but in practice it is usually more viable approach than building tables from scratch anyway.
On admin loops – admin side is not the easiest part of WP. It might be easier to retrieve itmes how you find convenient in your class extending
WP_List_Tablethen trying to replicate admin mechanics precisely.
