Title: Table Appearance All Wrong Last modified: September 1, 2016 --- # Table Appearance All Wrong * Resolved [boy1der](https://wordpress.org/support/users/boy1der/) * (@boy1der) * [9 years, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/table-appearance-all-wrong/) * Tobias, I’ve been using your plugin on several of my sites for some time now. I’m in the process of adding a table on one of my sites replacing the “Table” that is located in the WP Edit menu. Could you take a look at my site page and tell me what exactly is going on to make the table extend off the right side of the page and what is causing the last column to be so narrow. I would like for all columns to be more uniform in width. This is a Membership site and you may not be able to view it. I could furnish a screenshot if I knew where to send it. * [http://carriage-lifestyle-owners-club.com/owners-only/bronze-level/vendors-parts-supplies/](http://carriage-lifestyle-owners-club.com/owners-only/bronze-level/vendors-parts-supplies/) * [https://wordpress.org/plugins/tablepress/](https://wordpress.org/plugins/tablepress/) Viewing 8 replies - 1 through 8 (of 8 total) * Plugin Author [Tobias Bäthge](https://wordpress.org/support/users/tobiasbg/) * (@tobiasbg) * [9 years, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/table-appearance-all-wrong/#post-7632310) * Hi, * thanks for your question, and sorry for the trouble. * Yes, to find out more here, I’d need to see the table. If possible, I’d like to take a direct look at this on your site. Could you therefore please get in touch via email (the address is in the main plugin file “tablepress.php”)? That way, I can investigate this directly. Thanks! * Regards, Tobias * Thread Starter [boy1der](https://wordpress.org/support/users/boy1der/) * (@boy1der) * [9 years, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/table-appearance-all-wrong/#post-7632392) * Tobias, I sent you the information required that you requested.

This is mainly caused by those very long website addresses/URLs in your table. As those are treated as one very long word by the browser and as they don’t contain hyphens or spaces, the browser simply can not add word-wrapping to make them stand on more lines of text. Due to this, the column simply gets very wide. The best workaround that I see would be to not show those links with the URL as the link text, but to give them shorter/descriptive link texts. Using the “Insert Link” button (or by manually changing the HTML code), this should be very simple. * Regards, Tobias * Thread Starter [boy1der](https://wordpress.org/support/users/boy1der/) * (@boy1der) * [9 years, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/table-appearance-all-wrong/#post-7632409) * Thanks, Tobias That makes sense. I figured it was more me doing something wrong rather than the plugin. I’ll make those corrections and see what the results are. * Thanks for the Awesome Plugin. boy1der * Plugin Author [Tobias Bäthge](https://wordpress.org/support/users/tobiasbg/) * (@tobiasbg) * [9 years, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/table-appearance-all-wrong/#post-7632414) * Hi, * no problem, you are very welcome! 🙂 Good to hear that this helped! * Best wishes, Tobias * P.S.: In case you haven’t, please [rate TablePress](https://wordpress.org/support/view/plugin-reviews/tablepress) here in the plugin directory.
