    Hi, there!

    I am using TablePress Plugin a long time ago, but now I have a problem with applying Custom CSS. Whatever I write in the custom css area, is not applying. I am sure that I am using the right css selectors, because I have done it several times before and It was ok. Could you please give mi a hint what could be the problem?

    Thanks in advance and kind regards,
    CU team

    Hi,

    thanks for your question, and sorry for the trouble.

    Yes, I could try to do that, but would need more information ??
    Can you please post a link to the page with the table where this problem happens, so that I can take a direct look? Thanks!
    Also, which CSS exactly is not working?

    Hi Barbra,

    thanks for your question, and sorry for the trouble.

    The code is actually working, but the approach is not really feasible here, I’m afraid.
    From what I can see, you are trying to make the second column more narrow. However, that’s not really possible here, as there is text in some cells that is very long and that therefore forces that column to be wider. For example, there’s the text “Stylist/Cosmotologist” that is treated as one long, single word. And as the browser can not automatically add hyphenation/word-wrapping to it, the column will always be at least as wide as this word.
    So, you could easier allow more word-wrapping for all those long words (e.g. by adding a space after the /, like “Stylist/ Cosmotologist”), or you could maybe reduce the font size in the table, using this “Custom CSS”:

    .tablepress-id-1 {
  font-size: 16px;
}

    With that, the text will be smaller so that everything will fit better, even without setting manual column widths.

    Regards,
    Tobias
