    i am referring to the page which lists all posts in the wp-admin… after adding few plugins like SEO and likes, it added few extra columns like SEO title, keywords etc, in that listing… because of this, the column’s width is changed and the Post Title width gets reduced a lot… i like to define width for each column in that table but wondering where and which file has to be edited…. can someone shed some light on this…

  • I would strongly advise against editing WordPress core files.

    The simplest way to deal with the issue would be to hide the columns that you do not need when you’re on the All Posts or All Pages screens using the “Screen Options” tab at the top right.

    From the Codex : “The Screen Options allow you to choose which columns are displayed, or not displayed, in the underlying Table. Clicking on the Screen Options tab shows a list of the columns with a check-box next to each column. Check the box for each column you want displayed in the Table, or uncheck the box to not display that column. In addition, the number of Pages per page can be set. Click the Screen Options tab again to close the Screen Options.”
