Hi,
thanks for your post, and sorry for the trouble.
That sounds strange, but I remember having seen that before. I’m not exactly sure about the cause, but some themes seem to modify the page display mode through some <meta> HTML tag, so that iOS sometimes turns off scrolling.
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!
Regards,
Tobias

Thank you for looking into this issue.

Hi,
thanks for the link! This is really strange. I can confirm that scrolling doesn’t work on Safari nor Chrome on iOS (I tested on an iPad 3). Unfortunately, I can’t really spot a reason for this 🙁
Everything works fine in Chrome on a Mac (when I emulate an iPhone). Also, the <meta> tags seem to be correct…
Can you maybe test again with a different theme (like Twenty Sixteen) to find out if the theme plays a role in this?

Yes, though the formatting on Twenty Sixteen was wonky, it definitely seems to be the theme. I was able to scroll on iOS.
Any ideas what I can look for in the theme?
Hi,
thanks for the confirmation! Unfortunately, I have no real clue what CSS or HTML might be causing this :-/
I can only suggest that you maybe try to contact the support team of your theme then.

Added this to the CSS and it works on iOS now.
.tablepress{ max-width: none; }
Hi,
ah, nice find! I’ll have to remember that, in case I see that again in the future!
Best wishes,
Tobias
