 * Hi Tobias,
 * So after a bit of working back and forth with the Weaver support folks, we got
   the Tablepress custom CSS working again and I thought I’d update you on the specifics
   in case you come up against this again.
 * First off, I had to specify “default table styling” in the Weaver admin panel,
   which supposedly means that the theme styling will take control. However this
   alone did not do the trick.
 * The additional step was to add `#content` in front of each of my custom CSS commands.
   Their support person wrote the following: _“Weaver uses #content on each selector
   and your CSS has less specific selectors (classes). Make your selectors more 
   specific (at least as specific as the rule you are trying to override.)”
 * **So now that I’ve got my custom CSS working, can you recommend the best way 
   for me to designate that the table width display as 100% of the available screen
   width?** Thanks.

 * Hi Tobias,
    Any thoughts here? You’re usually so prompt with your support replies
   I’m concerned you haven’t responded to this one yet. Do you need more information?
   Or are there other threads where I should be looking to resolve this? Thanks!

 * Thank you! That worked like a charm. Last question…
 * If I want to add another hidden column (for Day of Week, so it’s sorted chronologically
   rather than alphabetically) how would I modify the “iDatasort” portion of the
   code above? Let’s say my day of week is column X and the hidden column referencing
   it is column Y.
 * Would it be something like this… `"aoColumnDefs": [ { "bSortable": false, "aTargets":[
   4, 5, 6, 7, 8 ] }, { "iDataSort": 3, Y, "aTargets": [ 2, X ] }, { "bVisible":
   false, "aTargets": [ 3, Y ] } ]`

 * Ah… I’ve actually already used that… just didn’t realize the terminology.
 * Ok, so I’ve already got some code in the “Custom Commands” area of my table to
   turn off sorting for some of the columns:
    `"aoColumnDefs": [ { "bSortable": 
   false, "aTargets": [ 4, 5, 6, 7, 8 ] }]`
 * I’ve added my hidden column and adjusted the code to do the sorting on the hidden
   column with this code:
    `"aoColumnDefs": [ { "iDataSort": 3, "aTargets": [ 2 ]},{"
   bVisible": false, "aTargets": [ 3 ] } ]`
 * But I don’t know how to integrate these two pieces of code together since they’re
   both making modifications to “aoColumnDefs”. I tried a few ways of joining them
   together and nothing worked and basically I lost all sorting ability on the entire
   table.
 * Can you please advise me how to combine these two pieces of code? Thanks!

 * Hi Tobias,
 * Cool! Looks like my idea was spot on. You said to the user in the other thread
 * > It is possible to do this with some “Custom Commands” for the DataTables JS
   > library, specifically:
 * I’m a bit of a newbie. Can you translate this a bit for me? I see the code snippet
   that you provided and think I understand how to modify it for my scenario, but
   where exactly do I put it? And where is the DataTAbles JS library? Can you please
   be specific, utilizing filenames and locations if possible?
 * Thanks!

 * Thank you! That worked like a charm. I am loving your plug-in and am still playing
   around with learning all the tweaks I can do to it. I’ll be making a donation
   shortly and will likely be posting more threads soon. Thanks so much for your
   speedy reply! Really appreciated 🙂

 * Oops, my link to my table is incorrect above (it was still in draft form). Here’s
   the correct link: [http://69.195.124.167/~eastbbc2/test-meeting-directory](http://69.195.124.167/~eastbbc2/test-meeting-directory)

 * Please disregard. I figured this out. I was inadvertantly overwriting my full
   theme’s style.css with the child theme’s style.css, hence the error. Problem 
   solved.
