 * I’ve been trying to centre content within tables but I’ve had no luck.
 * The custom css I’m using:
 * .tablepress-id-3 .row-1 .column-3,
    .tablepress-id-3 .row-1 .column-4, .tablepress-
   id-3 .row-2 .column-3, .tablepress-id-3 .row-2 .column-4, .tablepress-id-3 .row-
   3 .column-3, .tablepress-id-3 .row-3 .column-4, .tablepress-id-3 .row-4 .column-
   3, .tablepress-id-3 .row-4 .column-4, .tablepress-id-3 .row-5 .column-3, .tablepress-
   id-3 .row-5 .column-4, { text-align: center; }
 * Can you please advise?

 * Hi,
 * thanks for your post, and sorry for the trouble.
 * The reason for this is the comma after the last selector (right before the `{`).
   That has to be removed.
    Then, you could actually simplify the code as well:
 *     ```
       .tablepress-id-3 .column-3,
       .tablepress-id-3 .column-4 {
         text-align: center;
       }
       ```
   
 * should be enough.
 * Regards,
    Tobias
