Font color is not changing in a table

    Hi, I am a paid plugin user and have a problem with setting the color of the data in the table. I want to set the text color to white so that there does not appear to be any data on the page. No matter what I try, it is always black. Here is what I have put into your plugin’s custom css box on table 4.

    .tablepress-id-4 tbody td {
    font-family: Tahoma;
    font-size: 14px;
    color: #ffffff;
    }

    Please advise.
    Thanks,
    Greg

    Hi,

    thanks for your question, and sorry for the trouble.

    It seems like your site is storing CSS and JavaScript files on a third-party CDN server at wpmucdn.com. To have changes to the TablePress “Custom CSS” appear, you will need to refresh these files, by triggering the plugin that you are using for that CDN integration to refresh the files and cache.

    Just out of curiosity: Why are you trying to hide the content by making it white? What’s the goal behind this?

    Using it as a quick solution to storing data for a desktop application validation. Tried to create a URL query that would send a record key in a URL such as https://yoursite.com/returdata.php?RECKEY? and then get a returned value. Since I can’t do that then having a “hidden” table on another site will do the trick. If you know how to do this, how much to make it happen?
    Thanks,

    Hi Greg,

    I see. Unfortunately, I can’t think of a solution to achieve this (in that API-like fashion), so if you think that a hidden table works, you should aim for that!
    Instead of using white text color on white background, I’d however recommend to use CSS like

    .tablepress-id-123 {
  display: none;
}

    to actually hide it from a visitor. Your parsing code (that parses the returned HTML code) will still see the table content.
