    Hello Tobias,

    I would like a little help again please…

    I have a custom CSS rule called ‘colstablecurr’ with the following code…

    .colstablecurr,
    .colstablecurr tr,
    .colstablecurr tbody td,
    .colstablecurr thead th,
    .colstablecurr tfoot th {
    border: 1px solid #000000 !important;
    text-align: center;
    vertical-align: middle;
    background-color: #ffffff;
    font-size: 22px;
    }

    .colstablecurr tr {
    height: 25px;
    }

    .colstablecurr td {
    width: 10%;
    padding: 5px !important;
    }

    .colstablecurr .row-1 td,
    .colstablecurr .row-5 td,
    .colstablecurr .row-9 td,
    .colstablecurr .row-13 td,
    .colstablecurr .row-17 td {
    background-color: #CB5920;
    color: #ffffff !important;
    }

    .colstablecurr .row-4 td,
    .colstablecurr .row-8 td,
    .colstablecurr .row-12 td,
    .colstablecurr .row-16 td {
    border-left: 1px solid #ffffff !important;
    border-right: 1px solid #ffffff !important;
    }

    I am sure this could be simplified but I have added parts along the way…

    This code is applied to several tables as a theme for my site.

    However…

    I then want to add the following CSS to a table with ID 24 that also uses the above CSS…basically I want the following CSS to overwrite the above entry relating to font align: center

    .tablepress-id-24 .row-3 .column-1 td {
    text-align: center important!;
    }

    Yet it does nothing… I can seem to put any CSS in there and the table only responds to the code added to ‘colstablecurr’

    What is my silly mistake?

    Many thanks,

    Colin

    Hi,

    thanks for your post, and sorry for the trouble.

    Your CSS is slightly wrong. Please try

    .tablepress-id-24 .row-3 .column-1 {
      text-align: left !important;
    }

    Regards,
    Tobias
