Currency, percentage and other columns

Currency, percentage and similar column in wpDataTables

Cell prefix and suffix wpDataTables

Whatever you enter in the “Cell content prefix” (for example a $, or other currency sign) will be rendered in each cell of this column before the actual cell value; whatever you enter in the “Cell content suffix” (For example “%” or “pcs.”) will be rendered after the actual cell value. These entrees will not affect sorting, filtering, or any other column functions.
