A Year in Review: Ninja Tables Biggest Milestones in 2024
2024 didn’t just roll in; it strolled in with a demure swagger — subtle, steady, but stealing the show at the end.
Honestly, it’s been a wild ride. We blew out the candles on our 6th birthday (yes, obviously there was cake), rolled out updates we’re genuinely proud of, and even snuck in some major user-inspired templates that you wanted so long.
This year has been all about growth, creativity, and staying in tune with what our users love. And hey, we couldn’t have done it without you! So, pull up a seat, grab your popcorn (or coffee, we’re not picky), and let’s dive into the highlights!
Highlights
Here’s how Ninja Tables made waves this year:
- 11 plugin updates and bug fixes to keep things running smoothly and efficiently.
- 170k+ users engaged through our content- like 30+ blogs, social media, emails, and YouTube videos.
- The free table template page launched in May, drawing tons of new users and leading to 1600+ new email subscribers—and counting!
- Ninja Tables crossed a milestone with 90k+ active installs, though recent WordPress hosting issues caused a slight dip.
- 30+ free table templates have been helping users save time, with plans to add more designs and categories soon.
- 9000+ support tickets handled this year—just making sure you’re never left hanging!
- We also hit the big 6-year mark this year! Feels like just yesterday we were starting out—thanks for being a part of the journey!
- We’re developing a new table module to complement Default Advanced and Drag-and-Drop modes—it’s a work in progress, but you can bet it’ll be worth the wait.
It’s been a year packed with new ideas, big strides, and some awesome connections. But let’s be real—none of this would’ve happened without you being part of the ride. You’ve helped us make this year lit!
Ninja Tables in 2024
Now let’s look back at our favorite moments that kept us growing and held us in our lows!
Meeting Your Requests
This year saw some new impactful updates tailored to your needs. Our mission was all about getting real with our users—no more surface-level stuff. We wanted to deliver the ultimate table-building experience, one that’s as smooth and easy as possible. That’s why we launched our fresh Templates page.
Our standout feature was new free table templates inspired by your feedback, like this email from one of our users who loved the profile details and directory template.
After getting the ball rolling, we knew we had to dig deeper to truly understand what you all wanted. So, we hit up our weekly newsletter, asking for your thoughts, needs, and what you were vibing with.
And let me tell you, the responses came flooding in!
We took suggestions like these to heart, creating modern templates that seamlessly integrate with popular WordPress design trends. It’s still a work in progress, so bare with us.
Plugin Updates
From day one, our main goal was to create an easy-to-use, dynamic, and responsive table builder plugin for you. Through all the highs and lows, we’ve never wavered on quality. Our devs have been non-stop, fine-tuning features and sticking to our brand’s mission. Together, we’ve crushed bugs, released 11 updates, boosted performance, and made sure Ninja Tables stays your top pick for data visualization.
Meanwhile, the support engineers team has tackled 9,000+ tickets (seriously, that’s a lot of questions answered), whether you’re using the free features or going all-in with Pro. We’ve been all ears for your feature requests and worked fast to fix any issues that came up.
Content That Inspires
This year, we dropped 30+ blogs packed with insights to level up your data visualization game. From feature comparison tables to seasonal marketing hacks, we’ve been on it.
We didn’t just glance over—we went deep into everything you need for your eCommerce site—marketing, design, data visualization, affiliate programs—and even gave you a full rundown of the best alternatives out there to match your needs. And we see, you loved our resources!

Our marketing team held up their end of the bargain. After launching the Template page, our email subscribers grew. More than 1600 subscribers now trust us for weekly email updates and the number is growing every day.

From Instagram highlights to Pinterest boards, Ninja Tables has expanded its social presence to stay connected with you. Whether it’s tips, tutorials, or success stories, we’ve loved engaging with our community every step of the way.
Celebrating 6 Years of Ninja Tables
This year, Ninja Tables turned 6, and we celebrated the milestone with a proper feast! There was cake (everyone in our HQ has a sweet tooth!), endless slices of pizza, and team dinners that brought together our developers, support crew, UI/UX designers, and marketing gang. Between hilarious bug-fix stories and debates over table designs, the celebrations were as dynamic as the tables we built.
WordCamps & Team Retreats
From team retreats to WordCamp meetups, it’s been an incredible journey. Here are a few highlights:
WordCamps: WCAsia, WCEU, and WCMY
WordCamps hold a special spot in our hearts, and this year was no different. 2024 started off with WCAsia in Taiwan, and of course, WCSylhet in our own hometown.
At WordCamps, we rolled in full squad mode—speakers, volunteers, organizers, AV members, booth buddies, sponsors—you name it, we did it.
Parts of our team also hit up WCEU (Torino), and WCMY (Malaysia) this year. We had plans to attend WCUS (Portland), but there was visa issue.
We chatted with WordPress enthusiasts and seasoned core contributors about all things WP: the future, trends in e-commerce, contributing more to it, collaborating, and how we see our brands shaping the WordPress community.
Spoiler alert: We may have over-caffeinated ourselves, but the brainstorming was worth it!
It’s always a blast to nerd out with our WP fam!
Team Retreats
This year, we took a breather and went for a much-needed team hangout. Zip-lining? Check. Boating? Absolutely. A quiz competition? You bet. And let’s not forget the feast—because what’s a retreat without food!
It was all about unwinding, having fun, and connecting outside the office—these wonderful memories keep us going strong!
Annual Tour: From Mountains to Ocean!
This year, the team packed their bags for Nepal—some trekked through mountains, while others opted for laid-back vibes. We even reunited with our WordPress pals from WCKTM for a memorable evening filled with great food and chats about all things WP.
Meanwhile, some traded the mountains for the beaches in Thailand and Cox’s Bazar.
User Reviews: Your Feedback Fuels Us
We’ve been overwhelmed by the love and feedback from our users this year. From glowing reviews to creative table designs shared on Instagram, your support continues to inspire us.
Yaayyy! One of many wins for our support engineers!
Well, that’s just tip of the iceberg! There’s so much more love you showed us.
Keep those reviews and ideas coming — they’re the driving force behind every new feature and improvement!
Contribution to WordPress
Our goal isn’t just empowering businesses to grow to a new height. It’s also to uplift other fellow WP lovers, join in on the advancement of eCommerce and uphold the value of this open-source platform. We teamed up with others to create WCSylhet 2024 meetup a wonderful experience for all. Also we sponsored WordCamp Malaysia 2024 with our CEO attending in all the meetings and greetings.
We are always active members of the community, regularly chime in as core contributors (Remembering the fun we have at contributors day on WordCamps).
Ongoing Discounts & Sales
We have offered numerous sales this year, whether it’s Ninja Tables birthday, Women’s Day, BFCM, or big holidays like Christmas! Whatever gives us a reason to save your pocket, we jumped on the opportunity.
It’s not just the holidays bringing cheer! Don’t miss our ongoing discounts for both new and existing users — a little something to thank you for your loyalty.
What We Learnt This Year
Our CEO often says, “We’re here to empower small businesses.” It’s a line that always keeps us grounded in our mission.
Sure, each of our brands under WPManageNinja might have its quirks, but the heart of it all stays the same: helping small businesses thrive.
This year, we doubled down on that commitment. From tweaking Ninja Tables to perfection to offering support that never takes a break—literally!
As for achievements? Numbers are cool, but the love and trust from our users? That’s the real win.
We took this year to focus on self-improvement—both for Ninja Tables and for us as a team. Instead of piling on new features, we worked hard to refine the ones you already love. We squashed bugs, smoothed out features, and made sure Ninja Tables felt like the ultimate tool for your data visualization needs.
What’s next? Let’s just say we’ve been laying the groundwork for something big. Stay tuned!
New Product Alert: What’s Cooking?
This year, we began work on a brand-new module (shh… it’s a surprise!). While we can’t spill all the details yet, rest assured, it will revolutionize how you use Ninja Tables. Stay tuned for the big reveal in 2025!
Looking ahead to the future, we’re focused on:
- Launching the new module.
- Expanding our template library with more user-requested designs.
- Strengthening integrations with third-party tools.
💟 Meet us at WordCamp Asia 2025, our whole Ninja Tables Marketing team will be there to chat over coffee the whole WC days.
Here’s to Another Great Year!
We had our fair share of fun this year. 2024 has been nothing short of amazing. With lots of active users and improvement of Ninja Tables itself, we’re grateful for your continued support and trust. Here’s to another year of innovation, collaboration, and making your data tables smarter.
Cheers to 2025!
