    Hi,
    I have two questions
    1) before I have Tobias WP- Table Reloaded table which work fine, NO PROBLEM. Now I install new Tablepress and SEARCH box is to wide (see link bellow)
    https://www.majcgenealogy-slovenia.com/surnames/
    2) I have created table with many surnames (for our family genealogy).
    is it possible on top of table to ADD also letters so that visitors do not need to scroll down, down, and up, up.
    Instead of that they would just click on letter B first surname would start with B and so on.

    Thanks for your help
    Ivan

    P.S. How and where could I change password when I go to “support” like here?

    Hi,

    thanks for your questions.

    1) The reason for this is some CSS in your theme, that’s affecting the search field. Please add the following to the “Custom CSS” textarea on the “Plugin Options” screen of TablePress:

    .dataTables_length select,
.dataTables_filter input {
  width: auto;
}

    2) Unfortunately, I don’t know a solution to this. It could probably be done by extending the JavaScript and directly using the API of the DataTables JavaScript library (see https://www.datatables.net), that TablePress uses for the search, sorting, and pagination, but unfortunately I don’t have enough knowledge about this. Sorry.

    And for changing your password: That should be possible here:

    Tobias first THANK YOU and second I have another question ??
    In WordPress Tablepress I have table with several columns such as Address, street ZIP #, City, etc.
    Since not all columns are not wide same size how (if possible) could I re-size column with ZIP # (just 4 numbers, 1286)?

    Thank you again
    Ivan
