 * Hi TobiasBG,
 * I have a table with 4 columns and one is huge, and the 4th is really small. I
   tried using the custom css, as described in the FAQ for this plugin, but none
   of it is working.
 * I would provide you the link to the page where this rather unwieldy table is 
   located, but the site isn’t live. If you could send me an email to [widowswishes@gmail.com](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/custom-css-isnt-working-for-column-width/widowswishes@gmail.com?output_format=md),
   I would be glad to give you a login to the back-end of our WordPress, so you 
   could peek into my site and tell me what is going on. And I would be happy to
   provide a donation.
 * Thank you!
 * The page I need help with: _[[log in](https://login.wordpress.org/?redirect_to=https%3A%2F%2Fwordpress.org%2Fsupport%2Ftopic%2Fcustom-css-isnt-working-for-column-width%2F%3Foutput_format%3Dmd&locale=en_US)
   to see the link]_

 * I am having the same trouble. I have a table with several columns and rows. I
   would like column A to be larger than the rest of the columns. I have tried the
   code on the FAQ page, but that did not help. Any assistance would be greatly 
   appreciated. The tables are found [here](http://leslielernerproperties.com/real-estate-market-news-october-leslie-lerner-properties-houston-realtor-4/).
   Thank you!!

 * Hi,
 * thanks for your question, and sorry for the trouble.
 * Are you talking about table 4 or table 5 on that page? Both seems to be fine,
   from what I can see.

 * Thank you. I would like column A to be larger on Table 5 so the price ranges 
   won’t take up two lines. I would like for it to be straight across. Thanks!

 * Hi,
 * ok. For that, please add this to the “Custom CSS” textarea on the “Plugin Options”
   screen of TablePress:
 *     ```
       .tablepress-id-5 .column-1 {
         white-space: nowrap;
       }
       ```

 * Thank you! That did not work. I even cleared the cache to make sure.

 * Hi,
 * make sure to also reload the page in the browser with a refreshed cache. It works
   for me then.
 * Regards,
    Tobias
