    Hi,

    thanks for your post, and sorry for the trouble.

    I’m not sure that I understand. Can you please post a link to the page with the table where this problem happens, so that I can take a direct look? Thanks!

    Regards,

    Hi,

    thanks! From what I can see, they have centered the table using CSS like

    .tablepress-id-123 {
      margin: 0 auto !important;
      width: 70% !important;
    }

    and then apply the border lines with a trick in CSS:

    table.dataTable tbody th:before,
    table.dataTable tbody td:before {
    	content:"";
    	border-bottom: 1px solid #E7E8E8;
    	position: absolute;
    	height: 100%;
    	width: 200vw;
    	left: -100vw;
    	bottom: 0;
    	z-index: -1;
    	top: 0;
    }

    Regards,
    Tobias

    Hi,

    ok, to center the table, please change

    .tablepress-id-1 {
    

    to

    .dataTables_wrapper .tablepress-id-1 {
    

    Unfortunately, I don’t see why the other borders are not showing up. I can only suggest that you play with the CSS from that original link some more.

    after putting

    position: relative;

    in tbody and thead, the border lines show up but extend over the page width. fortunately, at least the centering worked.
