    How do I move the search box and label to the left of the table?

    I would like to rename the search text to something other than “Search” and move it and the search box to be left-aligned with the table.

    This is an excellent plugin, by the way.

    Hi,

    thanks for your question, and sorry for the trouble.

    To achieve this, you can use CSS code. For example, add this to the “Custom CSS” textarea on the “Plugin Options” screen of TablePress:

    .dataTables_filter {
  float: none;
}

    To change the “Search” text to something else, you can use the TablePress Extension from https://tablepress.org/extensions/change-datatables-strings/

    Regards,
    Tobias

    Many thanks, Tobias.

    You answered both of my questions in record time.

    Everything is working perfectly now!

    It took me a while to realize that I had to edit the json files directly on the server rather than use Worpress’ online Plugin editor. (I’m just a newbie. :))

    P.S.: In case you haven’t, please rate TablePress here in the plugin directory. Thanks!
