Thanks Tobais,

it’s almost there. However it’s only the header row that’s become narrower the others have remained the same size.

Also is there anyway I can centre the table in the widget I tried using a div to wrap the shortcode but that didn’t work.

Thanks Tobais,

That did help the table is now narrower. I made some other changes it needed to be smaller, with a smaller font and narrower rows so I tried this code

#tablepress-47_wrapper {
width: 200px;
font-family: Tahoma;
font-size: 10px;
}

.tablepress-id-47_wrapper {
padding-top: 2px;
padding-bottom: 2px;
}

I then placed the short code in a text widget and put it in the sidebar but it just expanded again to fill the sidebar.

I need it to look more like the one on the page rather than the one on the sidebar. I’ve left both for you to see.

Hi Tobias,
I’ve had another try to work this out, sadly no luck.

I’ve been able to add the scrolly code [table id=47 datatables_scrolly=”150px” /] and have a single column table with vertical scroll.

However no matter what I try I cannot reduce the width to fit the sidebar and have it display properly. I have tried this code for example
}
.tablepress-id-47 {
width: 330px;
}
When I hit the save button I see a flash of a narrower table before it goes back to full size.

I also need to adjust the depth of the rows.

I have left the table on the page if you need to have a look.

I only have a few rows in the table but if I can get it to work there will be dozens of rows.

Any suggestions?

Thanks

Okay thanks for this, if you leave it with me i will come back to you.

Hi Tobias, thanks for getting back to me. Sorry for the confusion as I wasn’t able to design the table properly I had to delete it from the site. At this stage I really need the css code to make a table as shown in the other link I sent. I would then try to design something similar.

Hope you can help
Thanks

Thanks,this is great it worked just fine. I think I have finally stopped these *** Italy brute force IPs.

Also wanted to add my thanks for this information without it very little of my content would be indexed. A comment from the theme developer would be helpful.

Sorry forgot to mark as resolved

Okay Tobais,

Once again thanks for the advice, I’ll have a go at closing up some of the space in the code.

Thanks

Hi Tobias,

thanks for getting back to me.

It’s a pity I can’t change a single cell but it would be good to know how to deal with the white space.

Yes the Adsense was pasted in and I also used a centre div.

One further question. Instead of a 3 column table could I put 3 x one column tables side by side?

I wanted to add some extra information to this query. To accommodate the adsense I am using [table id= 2 convert_line_breaks=false /]

Also to try to isolate one cell with the advert I am trying
}

.tablepress-id-2 .column-1 row-8 {
width: 75px !important;
}
What I get is too much extra white space in the advert cell but also the cells to the left and right have expanded to the same size.

Thanks Tobais,

I tried what you suggested using Firebug, it got a bit complicated. When I reduced the table width a horizontal scroll bar was added and the header row remained the same size leaving a gap between header and table.
Perhaps I just need to live with the table the way it is.

Just marked as resolved

Tobias, thanks for your help. Fantastic service as usual.

Tobias, thanks that did work but one more question please. How do I centre it in the widget?
