    Hi,

    that’s indeed tricky. You will basically have to use “Custom CSS” to adjust the image and the text as necessary, i.e. by adjusting heights, widths, margins, and paddings.

    However, from my feeling, you should actually consider a fundamental change: It sounds as if you are using tables for layout purposes. In modern webdesign, that’s however not what tables are for. Tables should be used to show tabular data only.
    Therefore, it is probably better to switch to a modern approach, using for example <div> HTML elements and style them with CSS.

    Regards,

    Thanks for the reply.

    I am trying to make my website look similar to drudgereport.com

    He is able to place images above his links. I believe he is using tables to organize the links on the page.

    I want to use WordPress because of the look, any ideas other than wordpress or tablepress?

    Hi,

    that page is indeed using a table, but it’s only using a table with three very high columns. The content in the columns is just text with line breaks. That’s why the images are above the text.

    However, using a table for this is not ideal (as mentioned above). You could use a plugin like https://www.ads-software.com/extend/plugins/grid-columns/ to create a three-column layout on the page. Then just fill that with content.

    Regards,
    Tobias

    Thank you very much. I want to keep using Tablepress, but I will also look at grid-columns.

    I appreciate your help.
