 * Is it possible to set the first *column* as the table header?

 * Hi,
 * thanks for your post, and sorry for the trouble.
 * You could add the Shortcode parameter
    `[table id=123 first_column_th=true /]`
   to make the cells in the first column header cells semantically (using HTML `
   <th>` instead of `<td>` tags), but this will not mean that it will be an actual
   table header.
 * You might therefore probably want to check out the `flip` mode of the TablePress
   Extension from [https://tablepress.org/extensions/responsive-tables/](https://tablepress.org/extensions/responsive-tables/)
 * Regards,
    Tobias

 * Excellent Tobias! We are actually trying to use your plugin to build a “dealer
   locator” with data imported from a database that resides inside our order entry
   system. If our tests work out, we will make a donation or purchase for the extension(
   s).
 * Thanks for the quick support!
