# Table not expanding rows

 *  Resolved [marcoscorrea](https://wordpress.org/support/users/marcoscorrea/)
 * (@marcoscorrea)
 * [6 years, 7 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/table-not-expanding-rows/)
 * I’ve downloaded the extension DataTables Row from [https://tablepress.org/extensions/datatables-row-details/](https://tablepress.org/extensions/datatables-row-details/)
   and installed as instructed in other posts.
 * However, I don’t seem to be able to get it to work. I’m already using the Responsive
   Table Scroll extension and it works fine. I’ve also tried to enable/disable the
   Use DataTable option, but it doesn’t make any difference.
 * The current code I’m using is
 * `[table id=1 responsive="scroll" datatables_row_details=true datatables_row_details_columns
   ="C-E" /]`
 * Could you help me out with this, please? Thank you!
 * Plus, I might be doing something wrong because I’ve installed the FixedHeader
   and FixedColumn and they don’t work either. Just the responsive extension is 
   working.

 * Hi,
 * thanks for your post, and sorry for the trouble.
 * Just to be sure, the “Use DataTables” checkbox is enabled for this table (it 
   has to be)? Also, can you please check if your theme contains a line like
 *     ```
       wp_footer();
       ```
   
 * in its “footer.php” file, right before the closing `</body>` HTML tag?
 * It might also be possible that something is interfering. Can you therefore please
   try again after temporarily deactivating all other plugins and after switching
   to a WordPress default theme like Twenty Twenty? That way, we can find what’s
   causing this.
 * Regards,
    Tobias

 * Thanks for the quick response!
 * As a first update:
 * **(1)** Use DataTables is activated. When you viewed my website it was probably
   off because I was making some tests, but it is on right now.
 * **(2)** I found the following link in the footer.php file:
 * `<?php wp_footer(); ?>`
 * **(3)** I’ve updated the plugin “Essential Addons for Elementor” which had a 
   pending update and the Expand Row extension started working. The Fixed Column
   and Header extensions still don’t work.
 * I will test the other plugins and theme later today and I’ll get back to you 
   with the results. I hope this initial feedback is useful.
 * Thank you!

 * Hi,
 * good to hear that this is working now!
 * For the FixedHeader and FixedColumns: Are you using these on the same table? 
   They are not compatible with the Row Details Extension, so that you can not use
   them together, sorry.
 * Regards,
    Tobias

 * Hello,
 * Yes, I’m trying to use all four extensions on the same table. The two essential
   ones, Responsive and Expand, are working fine. The other two are just quality
   of life, so I guess I’ll just not use them. Thank you very much for the info!
 * The table is at: [https://ticker11.com.br/emissoes/](https://ticker11.com.br/emissoes/)
 * Thank you!

 * Hi,
 * yeah, I’m afraid that won’t work, as they are not compatible to each other, sorry.
 * Best wishes,
    Tobias
