 * Hi
 * I want to have two table templates, so my client (who doesn’t know coding) can
   choose as easily as possible between the two when creating a new table.
 * The difference is mainly that one of the templates needs a far wider width for
   column 2. Could suggest the easiest way to set this up please?
 * Many thanks
 * Gerard

 * Hi,
 * thanks for your post, and sorry for the trouble.
 * The best way for this is to create two “Extra CSS classes”, like “tablepress-
   template-one” and “tablepress-template-two”.
    You could then use those in CSS
   like
 *     ```
       .tablepress-template-one .column-2 {
         width: 100px;
       }
       .tablepress-template-two .column-2 {
         width: 300px;
       }
       ```
   
 * Your client could then choose by putting the desired template name into the “
   Extra CSS classes” field on the table’s “Edit” screen.
 * Regards,
    Tobias
