WP-Table-Reloaded

Hi Art,

actually, you seem to have set that margin manually, by adding the Shortcode parameter “cellspacing” with a high value of “50”…

If you remove that, the spacing should be reduced.

First off… you rock… for such a prompt response. You’re the best of all support I’ve encountered.

But, now I really feel stupid. I don’t recall setting Shortcode Parameters at all. I simply pasted the table ID short code. Where do I go to change the shortcode parameters?

The only options I made was this in the css options space you provide:

.wp-table-reloaded-id-N, .wp-table-reloaded-id-N td, .wp-table-reloaded-id-N th {
border: none!important;
border-collapse: collapse!important;
border-spacing: 0px!important;
}

Thanks so much in advance for whatever help you can provide.

Hi Art,

you will find the Shortcode when you go to “Edit” that page/post with the table. I assume that you will find something like [table id=7 cellspacing=50 /] there. If you remove the cellspacing parameter from that code, the space above and below the table should become smaller.

For that CSS code: You have pasted that into the correct textfield, however, you did not make a change to it, that is required: You must replace the three “N” in the first line of code with the table ID for which you want this code. Without that change, the code won’t do anything (i.e. it does not do anything right now, so you could as well remove it).

Beeeeeeuatiful….! Thank you so much. I also now see that the cells are also closer together. I will look up on your forum faq to see how to change those parameters independently.

I use your tables quite a bit. So, if I want to edit each table short code parameter, I can do so by going to the css insert area and simply use the table ID… correct?

I will be sending you a $20 donation. Thank you so much for your incredibly fast and accurate responses.

Hi Art,

thank you very much for your donation, I really appreciate it!

For moving the images a little further apart again, you can use some CSS again:

.wp-table-reloaded-id-7 td {
  padding-left: 25px!important;
  padding-right: 25px!important;
}

Just play with those values until you like it.

Now, I’m not sure what exactly you mean in your second paragraph, as Shortcode parameters and CSS don’t have anything in common, really.
Its only for the cellspacing parameter that there happened to be this coincidence (because that exact parameter is coming from the older days of HTML and is no longer needed really). The recommended way for styling is CSS, which you enter into the “Custom CSS” textarea on the “Plugin Options” screen, and yes, you can use the table’s ID there to have certain code apply to certain tables only.

Best wishes,
Tobias

Yes Tobias,

I sometimes confuse myself with inaccurate descriptions. I understand what you mean and will apply the new padding between cells. And, make my edits within the Custom CSS textarea on the Options screen.

Thanks again for your outstanding support and wonderful plugin.
