Create Admin tables using WP_List_Table CLASS – In WordPress WP_List_Table<\/strong> Class is used to display data, e.g. users, plugins, comments, or posts.
\nEach post type that has a dashboard uses the WP_List_Table class to display data.<\/p>\n

We uses WP_List_Table class so that we can display\u00a0 custom post type data at wordpress backend.
\nIn the WordPress dashboard, the tables that displays the posts, pages and user data are all created internally by WordPress using the WP_List_Table<\/strong> class.
\nThey are used on nearly all default admin pages with lists, and most of the developers often integrate them into their plugins<\/p>\n

WP_List_Table class access is marked as private. That means it is not intended for use by plugin and theme developers as it is subject to change without warning in any future WordPress release. If you would still like to make use of the class, you should make a copy to use and distribute with your own project, or else use it at your own risk.<\/div>\n

Even After this confimation from wordpress.org, the WP_List_Table<\/strong> class has become widely used by plugins and WordPress developers as it provides a reliable, consistent, and semantic way to create custom list tables in WordPress. Till date, no major changes have occurred in this class or are scheduled to occur, so testing your plugin with beta\/RC phases of WordPress development should be more than enough to avoid any major issues.<\/p>\n

If you are still feeling risk of using this class a common (and safe) workaround is to make a copy the WP_List_Table<\/strong> class ( \/wp-admin\/includes\/class-wp-list-table.php )<\/strong> to use and distribute in your plugins, instead of using the original core class. This way, if the core class should ever change, your plugins will continue to work as-is.<\/p>\n

Let’s get started with WP_List_Table<\/strong> class :-<\/p>\n
