 * This is a BEAUTIFUL plugin. Thank you for such a streamlined knowledge base.
 * I’ve only seen one issue. As soon as I installed the plugin, **table borders**
   appeared around every instance of an HTML table on my site. These are not pages
   related to the knowledgebase plugin. They are my own pages. [Here’s an example](http://www.tctnetwork.org/about-us/current-tctn-member-churches/)
   of borders that appeared around every table cell.
 * And I’ve searched everywhere (my own CSS style sheet, the HTML behind the tables,
   the KBE style sheet), and can’t figure out how to remove the table borders.
 * I would assume the solution is to remove the “border: 1px solid #D3D3D3” line
   in the KBE CSS below, or to set the border to 0px, but when I do, and save the
   plugin, nothing changes on the live site. However, if I deactivate the Knowledgebase
   plugin, all borders on my tables disappear.
 * Help Please!

    margin: 10px 0px; } #kbe_container table th { font-weight:
   bold; } #kbe_container table, th, tr, td { border: 1px solid #D3D3D3; padding:
   4px; font-size: 12px; }

 * haha ok I think I know what’s happening here….
 * The rogue borders are definitely coming from the WP Knoweldgebase stylesheet.
   However that stylesheet isn’t where you think it is…. On activation of the plugin,
   the template folder /template of the plugin is actually copied into your active
   theme with the name /wp_knowledgebase The stylesheet is in that folder **in your
   theme.**
 * To complicate the issue, you said you were deactivating and reactivating the 
   plugin for testing…. each time you reactivate it, it’s re-copying across the 
   templates. So you can see why you’re tearing out hair!
 * Try this:
    1) Activate WP Knowledgebase 2.) Go to your active theme folder/wp_knowledgebase/
   kbe_style.css and get rid of the offending CSS that’s generating those borders
   3.) Save and test…. should be fixed.

    On a sidenote, I am aware of the flaws in the current template system and
   am working on an overhaul to how this works so that we can avoid this sort of
   scenario in the future.

 * Ah! Success!
 * For any users who might be reading this with the same low-level experience as
   me, i’m going to provide a bit more detail on how I fixed this issue.
 * 1. Log into your WordPress site via FTP.
    2. Navigate to /wp-content/themes/[
   your theme]/wp_knowledgebase 3. Open kbe_style.css 4. Edit the #kbe_container
   section that describes table formatting to match what I’ve pasted below. This
   requires simply deleting the line describing the border format.
 * #kbe_container table, th, tr, td {
    padding: 4px; font-size: 12px;
 * 5. Save your work.
