Beschreibung
SheetFusion turns public Google Sheets into modern WordPress tables without API keys, OAuth, visitor tracking, or telemetry.
Version 2.2.0 adds a saved-table builder and visualizer so site owners can create a table once, choose the look and behavior, preview it, and embed it anywhere with a short shortcode or the SheetFusion Table block.
Highlights
- Saved table builder with per-table settings
- Admin-only visualizer for colors, themes, density, and responsive behavior
- Gutenberg block and shortcode support
- Backward-compatible direct sheet embeds
- Search, sorting, pagination, result info, row menu, CSV/Excel/PDF/Print export buttons, and column visibility
- Responsive modes: horizontal scroll, stacked rows, and mobile cards
- Smart link columns and image thumbnail columns
- Optional sticky header, max-height table scrolling, and async loading
- Server-side row filtering by column
- Transient caching with admin refresh and cache clear controls
- No row-count paywall; only a configurable safety cap to protect server memory
- No telemetry and no external frontend CDN requests
How it works
SheetFusion fetches CSV data from Google’s public export endpoint. Your sheet must be published to the web. Private sheets are not supported because SheetFusion intentionally avoids API keys and OAuth.
External Services
This plugin connects to:
- Google Sheets (
docs.google.com) – your WordPress server fetches public CSV data for the Sheet ID and tab name you provide.
SheetFusion does not collect, store, or transmit personal visitor data to SheetFusion servers. Visitors‘ browsers do not request bundled table libraries from external CDNs.
Bundled Libraries
The following libraries are bundled locally:
- DataTables 1.13.8 – MIT
- DataTables Buttons 2.4.2 – MIT

FAQ
-
Does SheetFusion require an API key?
-
No. It uses the public CSV export endpoint for sheets published to the web.
-
Does SheetFusion support private sheets?
-
No. Private sheets require OAuth or API credentials, which SheetFusion intentionally avoids.
-
Does SheetFusion limit rows like a freemium plugin?
-
No. There is no row-count paywall. There is a configurable safety cap to protect site memory and browser performance on very large sheets.
-
Can I still use my old shortcodes?
-
Yes. Existing shortcodes such as
[sheetfusion id="SHEET_ID" sheet="Sheet1"]continue to work. -
What is the recommended saved-table shortcode?
-
Use a saved table:
[sheetfusion table="123"]. -
Can I customize colors?
-
Yes. WordPress administrators can use the table visualizer to choose presets and custom colors for each saved table.
-
Does SheetFusion collect telemetry?
-
No. SheetFusion does not include Appsero-style telemetry or phone-home tracking.
