Even though a shortcode looks like a single line of text, this will not work in a Text element.
That’s why Ninja Tables offers a free shortcode element separately to let you add your shortcode to the table.
Let’s add a Shortcode element to Ninja Tables.
Properties of Shortcode Element #
| Option Name | Type |

Adding a shortcode element in tables can display any shortcode-generated content you want. And drag and drop data table is a lot more flexible in this feature.
Paste any shortcode and showcase the table smartly.
