 * Hi.
 * How are you?
 * I have a couple of tables inserted in posts but I need them full width.
 * Have changed the css but doesn’t work.
 * Any idea how could I make the tables full width?
 * The tables have horizontal scrolloing activated.
 * Thanks

 * Hi,
 * thanks for your post, and sorry for the trouble.
 * Tables do actually stretch to 100% of the available content area, so most likely,
   you’ll just have to use a “Full width” or “No sidebar” page template from your
   theme, by selecting that on the page’s “Edit” screen.
 * Regards,
    Tobias

 * Hi thanks very much for your response.
 * Yes I need to strech them to 100% of the post area but they don’t.
 * Any idea?
 * Thanks

 * Hi,
 * did you select a “Full width” page layout? If your theme does not offer one, 
   you might have to add one.
 * Is the “Horizontal Scrolling” checkbox on the tables’ “Edit” screens checked?
   If so, that could cause problems here. Instead of using that checkbox, please
   use the `scroll` mode of the TablePress Extension from [https://tablepress.org/extensions/responsive-tables/](https://tablepress.org/extensions/responsive-tables/)(
   if you actually want horizontal scrolling).
 * If that also does not help, can you please post a link to the page with the table
   where this problem happens, so that I can take a direct look? Thanks!
 * Regards,
    Tobias
