Table Builder: admin tables you reuse in Elementor

Table Builder stores tables as kng_table posts. You design them in a dedicated admin editor (views: dashboard, list, editor, templates, settings, import/export), then drop or embed the result in Elementor.

What it actually does

Column flags: sortable, hide_mobile, align, tooltip, rowspan, colspan. Table config: search, sorting, pagination, rows_per_page, preset, theme, zebra, scroll_x, hide_columns.

Theme names in the editor: minimal, glass, contrast, pricing. Defaults include default_preset, default_theme, default_rows_per_page.

Import/export and templates views exist so you can duplicate structure without rebuilding columns.

Notes from the implementation

This is not WooCommerce product data. It is a generic table CPT. kingaddons.com.

FAQ

Can I paste from Excel?

Use import/export in the builder, not a CSV widget.

Why a separate builder?

Large tables are painful as Elementor repeaters; the CPT keeps data out of the canvas.
