 * Oh Boy!
    So I deactivated all but Tablepress – logged out and back in.
 * My website went crazy with warnings, but I looked at Tablepress and it still 
   is smushed cells.
 * So I activated my plugs and now I have a lot of work to do with the plugins. 
   And it showed I was now logged in twice –

 * I see…
 * As I deactivate plugins can I check Tablepress, or do I have to log out and back
   in to see any changes? Are plugin affects instant, or is there a waiting period?
 * And what about Tablepress plugins?

 * Yea, I’ve tried the duplicate feature, but it doesn’t work how I need so it’s
   more of a pain than help – like copy/paste (copy = duplicate and paste = move
   🙂
 * And for #3 I’ll give it a try, but dragging for 200+ rows is going to be another
   pain me thinks.
 * Glad to hear your on top of things Tobias, your the best!

 * Super, as only the one table per one page, my links link to the page 🙂 Love 
   it. No blog either.
 * Also, asking my last question in a different way:
    If I copy a table does it 
   copy the Extensions (reverse order) I used in the original table? I like the 
   way I’ve set my tables up, and was looking for a short cut in passing things 
   on to this years tables, this is why I ask.
 * Thank you ~ again

 * Oh, I understand now.
 * In that case I can just ignore it. It was part of a template page, that I have
   now edited to fit my needs.

 * Oh yes, when I add a plugin shortcode into a page they too use the brackets []
   
   but what I’m speaking of here is used in place of reg html to apply pre-set formatting
   such as [section extra=header-top]Header text here[/section].
 * It is not CSS or HTML as I know them, but I can see the results are operating
   just like CSS & HTML.
 * Is there a file in the theme or place where I can look these up…. would they 
   be in a style sheet of some kind?
 * Is it okay to use reg HTML instead? As you can see from my examples they are 
   being used for things like header, paragraph, sections, etc. and so they replace
   <div> <p> <span>, but they come with extra formatting usually margins.
 * I have removed all I’ve found, which wasn’t much, so there isn’t any page you
   could view them on really. But my theme is NativeChurch, and I’m totally new 
   to WP so I’m unfamiliar with these bracket tags instead of HTML. I tend to mess
   with things to learn, but this can cause trouble later. So I’m wondering how 
   important using these bracket tags are, and if they can be replaced with html.
   Or if I could look them up somewhere in my theme and learn how to use them…..
 * The expensive support has run out, so I’m trying to understand this on my own
   🙂
 * Thanks

 * Oh, I just clicked on a field and sure enough it opened up to 300px…. I did not
   expect this as I could see the changes to the length as I went.
 * So back to the question in my original post, trying to figure out the text-field
   box behavior –
    Editing the php file height will cause the field boxes to “open
   up” to the px I specify – when clicked-on only, but their length does show when
   the page is loaded – correct?
 * Hum, I have certain columns that can remain standard/small, while others have
   anchor tags, etc. that would be nice to scan through without having to click 
   each one. Is it possible, without breaking tablepress, to add more specifications
   to the php file for the sizes?
 * Our tables will contain hundreds of items, so I ask 😀 Thanks for all your expertise.

 * Okay, I did edit the php file (thank you for the path). And the fields are longer,
   and this helps, but no matter how I change the height the fields stay the same
   height. Right now I have it set to 300×300 but I’m seeing 300×96 unless I change
   them by hand, individually. Any suggestions?
 * Also, there isn’t any way to set individual columns is there?
 * Thanks Tobias,
