 * Hi, after updating to the latest version I now have css issues and my tables 
   do not look the way they did before. They design also loads strangely.
 * Edit: I performed a rollback and now it looks good. Sorry, cannot update to latest
   version.

 * Hi [@jezkerw](https://wordpress.org/support/users/jezkerw/)!
 * Thanks for your post and sorry for the trouble!
 * This is indeed possible, due to changes in the HTML and DOM structure in TablePress
   3.0.
 * But no worries, these CSS updates should not be difficult. I therefore suggest
   that you do the update again and then provide details on what exactly is different.
   You might also want to check the examples at [https://tablepress.org/faq/](https://tablepress.org/faq/)
   for inspiration on the best ways to make certain changes.
 * Remaining on the old version of TablePress is not a good idea and won’t help:
   These changes in TablePress are intentionally and will also be part of future
   versions.
 * Best wishes,
   Tobias

 * Hi Tobias,
 * Rollback went fine and all looks good at the moment. I don’t understand why an
   update would affect the css design? If I understood why this happened, I could
   probably fix it but since I have no clue I don’t really have the motivation to
   dig deeper atm to be honest.
 * I have my design in my child theme style.css if that helps? One of the main thing
   was that the shadow around my tables disappeared but also when loading, 1px lines
   were visible around the tables when refreshing and then disappeared. Strange 
   behavior all around.

 * Hi,
 * the cause for this is that the update needed to update an internal JavaScript
   library (for the features like sorting, searching, etc.). This updated library
   has some backward-compatibility breaks, and one of them is a modernized HTML/
   DOM structure (for example to make the table accessible for users with disabilities).
   This means that the CSS selectors also had to be changed, which now requires 
   adjustments in the CSS code.
 * TablePress tries this itself during the update process, for all CSS code in the“
   Custom CSS” field on the “Plugin Options” screen. So, if your TablePress-specific
   styling is indeed in the theme’s style.css file, it could not be updated automatically.
 * But again, doing this manually is not a big problem. It would however be necessary
   that you update to TablePress 3.0 again, so that we can look at this.
 * If you don’t do this, you will have to stay on TablePress 2.4.4 forever, which
   I really don’t recommend.
 * Best wishes,
   Tobias

 * Hi Tobias,
 * No of course, I understand I do need to update. Do you have an email where you
   can guide me maybe or explain to me here what I need to do? It would be highly
   appreciated 🙂
 * Many thanks
