The plugin converts regular HTML tables, embedded in your page, into arrays of values that you can use in your templates to output the data.
Custom fields can hold text and any HTML code (except for tables). Array of values can be simple index based or more complex key value pairs.
You can embed many tables with values on your page with various data.
Usage
- Place the table with values you want to use on your page between ‘[zen-fields] … [/zen-fields]’ short-tags
- In your template use ‘zen_field()’ function to output values from above table
If your would like to use multiple tables with values you should name ech table and use table name as the last parameter of zen_field() function
…
Iteration over values in tables
It is possible to iterate over values from your tables. The variable ‘$zen_fields->tables’ holds the array with values from all the tables on the page.
Escaping output
By default output is not escaped which allows you to use links, images and another HTML content in your custom fields. If you would like to escape the output use ‘zen_field_esc()’ function instead of ‘zen_field()’.

Basic usage - simple table with values only.
A better approach is to use key/value pairs. In this case you should use table header tags for field names.
