I'm trying to use this in my custom plugin based on the plugin Boiler plate https://github.com/DevinVinson/WordPress-Plugin-Boilerplate

I can get my admin page to load but getting errors like: Notice: Trying to get property 'id' of non-object in C:\Sites\thefactorystl.wp.dnndev.me\wp-admin\includes\class-wp-list-table.php on line 454

Fatal error: Uncaught Error: Call to a member function render_screen_reader_content() on null in C:\Sites\thefactorystl.wp.dnndev.me\wp-admin\includes\class-wp-list-table.php:807 Stack trace: #0 C:\Sites\thefactorystl.wp.dnndev.me\wp-admin\includes\class-wp-list-table.php(1249): WP_List_Table->pagination('top') #1 C:\Sites\thefactorystl.wp.dnndev.me\wp-admin\includes\class-wp-list-table.php(1186): WP_List_Table->display_tablenav('top'
