# Cannot align table!

 * I’ve been trying to centre a table but just cannot get it to work correctly. 
   I’m using Weaver II as my theme and I think that perhaps it’s overriding the 
   Tablepress CSS that I’ve been using as per instructions on the FAQ. The table
   is here [http://edwinmorris.net/wordpress/?page_id=667](http://edwinmorris.net/wordpress/?page_id=667).
   Ideally I would like the table centred with just a small gap between the images
   but just cannot get it to work. Any ideas?
 * Thanks!

 * Hi,
 * thanks for your post, and sorry for the trouble.
 * That is tricky here, due to the way how you inserted the images with their captions.
   WordPress then adds a size to those elements (noticable with the “width” parameter
   in the Shortcodes in the table cells).
    To change this, this “Custom CSS” (on
   the “Plugin Options” screen of TablePress) should help:
 *     ```
       .tablepress-id-16 .wp-caption {
           margin: 0 !important;
           width: auto !important;
       }
       ```
   
 * Regards,
    Tobias
