Your theme or a plugin is overriding your table style. You can use your browser’s element inspector to find the offending line. Or send me a link to the page.
I found it. Thank you for your support and for the OUTSTANDING plugin!
Glad to hear it. No problem. Have fun!
I am having the same problem. Can you describe what the fix was?
It was a CSS issue… I changed one line to;
table[id^="ssfa-table"].ssfa-whitestripes > tbody > tr > td {
padding: 5px 5px 5px 10px;
}
Actually, what you want to do is probably this:
table[id^=”ssfa-table”] {table-layout:auto!important;}
It overrides a stupid style decision Twenty-Sixteen and a few other new themes make.
Grateful if you would advise which CSS file I need to edit, and if I am to change an existing line or add the corrected line somewhere in the file.
FYI, I am using the minimalist table theme.
After fiddling with it a bit, it appears that I needed to edit fileaway-styles.css and change the lines:
body table[id^="ssfa-table"] {
padding: 0;
width: 100%;
}
to:
body table[id^="ssfa-table"] {
table-layout: auto!important;
}
Was this the correct and proper way to do this?
Actually you don’t want to edit the source file. There is a CSS Editor tab on the File Away settings page. Add any custom css there and it won’t get overwritten on plugin updates. Thanks for the kind review!
Thanks. I followed the directions on the Tutorials tab for Custom Table Styles to create my own custom table style based on Minimalist.
I added the following to the top of it…
body table[id^="ssfa-table"] {
table-layout: auto!important;
}
…and it fixed my 1-character column issue.
