 * Hi,
 * I am using a plugin to create a table of items which can be searched by name 
   or filtered by category. The issue is that the ‘initial open tab’ display the
   filter field correctly. The rest of the tabs ‘shrink’ the filter field.
 * The code to show each table is identical apart from the letter searched.
 * Cannot provide a link as it is on a test server ATM.

 * Hi [@synlabuk](https://wordpress.org/support/users/synlabuk/),
    if the plugin
   is free, may you share the name and the HTML code from Code editor, in order 
   to test in my end?

 * Hi [@htmgarcia](https://wordpress.org/support/users/htmgarcia/)
 * Sorry it is a paid for plugin (don’t want to post URL of plugin as unaware of
   forum rules) . If you can provide the URL for your test site I can authorize 
   it so that you could use it. I would however need to email/post you the zip file
   for you to upload. Again, don’t want to do it now as I don’t know if it would
   break forum rules

 * I understand, [@synlabuk](https://wordpress.org/support/users/synlabuk/). To 
   have more details on this, did you reported the issue to the paid plugin developer?
   It may help to have a better understanding on this situation.

 * Hi [@htmgarcia](https://wordpress.org/support/users/htmgarcia/) have not reported
   to plugin developer.
 * From my testing it seems to be the tabs block that causes the issue.
 * I can view the tabs (a-z) with ‘a’ being the initial open tab. ‘a’ shows the 
   filter ok, the rest do not.
 * Change the initial open tab to ‘b’ (or anything else) then ‘b’ shows ok, the 
   rest do not, including ‘a’. Change it back and the initial open tab is fine.
 * As I cannot shown the issue to them either, might have to wait until the site
   is live.

 * Thanks [@synlabuk](https://wordpress.org/support/users/synlabuk/)! Opening the
   other tabs displays the content fine.
    In case I’m missing something, may you
   point in an screenshot the issue?

 * Hi [@htmgarcia](https://wordpress.org/support/users/htmgarcia/)
 * It’s the filter options just about the test name.
 * On the ‘all’ tab it is displayed correctly, all the others they are truncated.

 * Hi [@htmgarcia](https://wordpress.org/support/users/htmgarcia/)
 * Thanks for the quick reply. However, you are looking at the wrong item.
 * It is the drop down fields above the test name. Site and laboratory.

 * Thanks for the clarification, [@synlabuk](https://wordpress.org/support/users/synlabuk/)!
   I see what you mean.
 * The dropdowns despite being shrinked, still works. Maybe adding custom CSS through
   your theme Customizer > Additional CSS to set the width for the dropdowns may
   solve the issue?

 * Thanks [@htmgarcia](https://wordpress.org/support/users/htmgarcia/)
 * It is the tab block that is causing the issue as I tested in on another tab plugin
   and the dropdowns were as expected, all the same size.
 * Never done any add. css code, do you have any pointers as what to add?
 * Thanks
