I am attempting to upload a 5-column table onto a WordPress page, but the far right column formats differently than the others making it unreadable - there is no distinction among the rows, and all the copy is right justified with a different column color. I then attempted to manually create the table, but ran into the same problem. Is there a limit to the number of columns that will fit on the page?
I would show you, but the page is in draft form since I don't want to publish it to the site in this condition. Any suggestions?
Thanks,
Duncan

Hi Duncan,
thanks for your post, and sorry for the trouble.
Very, very likely, this is the same problem as was discussed in these threads:
http://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-wp-table-reloaded-last-column-seems-corrupted
http://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-wp-table-reloaded-last-column-becomes-greyed-out
This comes from some CSS code in some themes, which can break the last column. The links above contain some CSS code to fix it again. Please try that.
If that still is not working, maybe you can publish a test page (without linking it anywhere on your site), and post the link here?
Regards,
Tobias

That worked perfectly. Thank you! You can see the published page here:

I have to now create a link within each cell to its corresponding Wikipedia page. Are there any new shortcuts to do this? Or do I have to click the Insert link button and cut and paste the URL, and then retype the name of each cell in the text field that pops up?
Thanks again for all your help.

Hi Duncan,
great that this worked! :-)
Yes, you'll have to use the "Insert Link" button for each cell. Sorry :-(
The only workaround would be to paste in the HTML code manually, but that's probably even more time consuming and prone to errors.
Best wishes,
Tobias
