 * Hi,
 * Love your plugin – use it all the time
 * Im looking for a collapsable list and was hoping to use Tablepress since I can’t
   find anything else thats searchable.
 * Is it possible to have the rows collapse and contain more info when «opened»?
 * If not how do we make such a cell that you have here to the right:
    [http://www.poorpigs.de/baseball/teamroster/saison-2013/](http://www.poorpigs.de/baseball/teamroster/saison-2013/)?
 * Thanks!

 * Hi,
 * thanks for your question, and sorry for the trouble.
 * A similar functionality to that link is available via this Premium TablePress
   Extension: [http://tablepress.org/extensions/datatables-row-details/](http://tablepress.org/extensions/datatables-row-details/)
 * If you install that, and extend the Shortcode of the table to
 *     ```
       [table id=1 datatables_row_details=true datatables_row_details_columns="A" /]
       ```
   
 * the content of the first cell of each row will be visible after a click on a “
   +” symbol only.
    If you change the Shortcode to
 *     ```
       [table id=1 datatables_row_details=true datatables_row_details_columns="A-C" /]
       ```
   
 * you will see a similar behavior, except that the content of three columns is 
   then taken as the “extra content”.
 * Regards,
    Tobias

 * Thanks, but I can’t get it to work.
    I see the Plus symbol and the content of
   all the cells before I click the Symbol. Nothing really happens when I click 
   the symbol. I need it to function something like this: [http://www.sportsbransjen.no/bransjereg/](http://www.sportsbransjen.no/bransjereg/)

 * Hi,
 * something like in that link is not directly possible with TablePress, but the
   Extension should at least get you started with a similar solution.
    Can you please
   post a link to the page with the table where you are trying the Extension, so
   that I can take a look there? Thanks!

   php”).

 * Hi,
 * quick update for everybody reading this:
    I worked on this directly with larsgj,
   and we were able to fix the issue. Basically, there was just some extra code 
   in the Shortcode parameters. After removing that, everything works now.

 * I like the extension, but note that some columns, when revealed, align right.
   
   in the example at [http://gregturnbull.net/?page_id=731](http://gregturnbull.net/?page_id=731),
   columns D, E ang G align right, though F seems to align left as desired.
 * I have also tried adding this to the plugin options css:
 * .tablepress-id-2 th,
    .tablepress-id-2 td { text-align: left; }

 * Hi,
 * thanks for your post, and sorry for the trouble.
 * To align everything to the left, please try this “Custom CSS”:
 *     ```
       .tablepress-row-details tbody tr .row-details-right {
         float: none;
         padding-left: 2px;
       }
       ```

    Tobias
