 * Hi,
 * thanks for your post, and sorry for the trouble.
 * For some reason, your theme is adding CSS code that influences the table. Please
   try adding this to the “Custom CSS” textarea on the “Plugin Options” screen of
   TablePress to fix this:
 *     ```
       #content-area .tablepress td,
       #content-area .tablepress th {
         max-width: none;
       }
       ```
   
 * Regards,
    Tobias

 * Hi,
 * thanks for your post, and sorry for the trouble.
 * This is caused by your theme, which removes the padding from all tables (for 
   no good reason). To fix this, please try adding this to the “Custom CSS” textarea
   on the “Plugin Options” screen of TablePress:
 *     ```
       #container .tablepress th,
       #container .tablepress td {
           padding: 8px !important;
       }
       ```
   
 * Regards,
    Tobias
