# text-align and border options?

 * I want to left-align the team names in the left-most column and I’d like to put
   lines in between the columns just like the lines that are between rows. I can’t
   seem to find the options for this on the Tablepress page on my WP dashboard area.
   Please forgive me if this is the most obvious thing in the world.
 * The page I need help with: _[[log in](https://login.wordpress.org/?redirect_to=https%3A%2F%2Fwordpress.org%2Fsupport%2Ftopic%2Ftext-align-and-border-options%2F%3Foutput_format%3Dmd&locale=en_US)
   to see the link]_

 * Hi,
 * thanks for your question, and sorry for the trouble.
 * For this, you can add CSS code like
 *     ```
       .tablepress-id-40 .column-1 {
         text-align: left;
       }
       .tablepress-id-40 th,
       .tablepress-id-40 td {
         border: 1px solid #cccccc;
       }
       ```

 * Could I ask one more question? Any idea why the top line of the table above row
   1 might be missing?

 * Hi,
 * TablePress doesn’t add a top border by default. To also get that, please change
   the code from above to
 *     ```
       border: 1px solid #cccccc !important;
       ```
