# Tablepress responsive extension issue

 * I like the approach to responsive tables but I am having problems with any table
   I throw at it.
 * I have set up a page to demo this:
 * [http://urlgone.com/5382ab/](http://urlgone.com/5382ab/)
 * This table has 10 columns but in responsive mode ([table id=1 responsive=”desktop”/])
   when columns are switched to rows the data is only present for the first 8. This
   is happening regardless of the number of columns in a table and at different 
   numbers of rows.
 * Can you help? Many thanks.

 * how did you set the column widths? They have to be a percentage for responsive(
   or rather “fluid” is what I think you really mean in this case) table on fluid
   site.
 * i.e. column-width= 10% 10% 10% 10% …etc X10 for 10 columns
 * or column-width = 16.67% 33.33% 16.67% 33.33%;
 * Stick it right in the shortcode:
    [table id=weekdaystbl alternating_row_colors
   =true column_widths=”16.67%|33.33%|16.67%|33.33%” row_hover=true /]

 * Thanks for the input but problem persists. Had not set any column widths – now
   using:
 * [table id=1 alternating_row_colors=true row_hover=true column_widths=”10%|10%
   |10%|10%|10%|10%|10%|10%|10%|10%” responsive=”tablet” /]
 * Result: Same problem as before.

 * Hi,
 * thanks for your post, and sorry for the trouble.
 * That’s the expected behavior. As mentioned on the web page of the Extension, 
   the table will be flipped to the side, and it is then scrollable horizontally.
 * However, to make things look better, you will need to adjust the padding. For
   that, please remove the changes regarding column widths that you have made and
   add this to the “Custom CSS” instead:
 *     ```
       .tablepress th,
       .tablepress td {
         padding: 8px !important;
       }
       ```
   
 * Regards,
    Tobias
