    TablePress is a very good plugin for tables but I can't set the letter spacing and font size fir the words inside the table.

    Could WP or the WP theme over-run the settings in TablePress CSS?

    This question may not be relevant to this forum but I ask it anyway:
    Where in the TablePress CSS and in what CSS-file is that seeting done?

    Thanks

    Tablepress has it own custom CSS box in the settings. Did you check that?

    You wouldn't modify the plugins CSS but you can inspect the table using a browser app, find the CSS and modify it in your child themes style sheet.

    It would help if you could link to a table on your site you have made. Thanks.

    Thanks guys for tips. I try to follow you directions.

    The problem is that the letter spacing within the table is much greater than in the text outside the table. When I change the CSS in the theme text both inside and outside the table change. I can't find the styling part within the genesis child theme. If that is not the place what remains is CSS within TablePress. Where should I look?

    Do you have an online version to show? That way, things can be more specific.

    Ok thanks again. The site is behind password. We will now try to use a custom CSS for these particular pages.

    Inspect within the table to find the CSS generated by the plugin which you can modify in your child theme using !important

    TablePress uses it's own CSS .. ( unless you disable it, by adding a filter to your functions file )

    add_filter( 'tablepress_use_default_css', '__return_false' );

    Hello Graham

    I wouldn't disable it because then you'll need to load it from your child theme which won't be updated when the plugin is.

    Absolutely, if someone disables it.. they're on their own and have to handle all of the CSS for TablePress independently. Yet the option is there.

    Of course, they could always enable it fully again in the future if needed, just by removing that filter.

    The intention was to highlight to the OP that TablePress uses its own CSS for the tables it creates, that particular CSS can be modified from within the plugin.
