 * Hey Tobias,
 * Thanks for all the support you provide here. The page I am trying to edit is:
   [http://www.backpackingotc.com/top-10-countries/](http://www.backpackingotc.com/top-10-countries/)
   
   I have scoured the forums and FAQ but none of my custom CSS code is working.
 * There are a few things I would like to edit:
    – I would like to eliminate the“
   Show _ entries” and Search bar. I would also like the “Showing 1 of 10 entries”
   at the bottom of the table eliminated (this is a fixed table for the most part)–
   I would like the column widths to be equal and wide enough to fit across the 
   white area. – I would like to get rid of the sorting option on the columns.
 * Thanks a bunch,
 * -Brandon

 * Hi Brandon,
 * thanks for your post, and sorry for the trouble.
 * For your first and third question, the solution is very easy: Just uncheck the
   checkboxes for the unwanted features on the table’s “Edit” screen, in the section
   below the table input fields.
    (If you want all features to be turned off, just
   uncheck the “Use DataTables” checkbox.)
 * To extend the width of the table, you’ll have to modify the theme (or use an 
   option that it might be offering). By default, your theme restricts the width
   of the content to one big column with white space on the sides. Please check 
   if you can choose a different “Page template” on the “Edit” screen of the page.
   Most themes offer something like “Full width” there, which should reduce the 
   white space area at the sides.
 * Regards,
    Tobias
