 * Scroll to the bottom of this following page and you’ll notice two tables with
   header rows that span two columns in the header. Is there anyway to make this
   happen with Tablepress?

 * Hi,
 * thanks for your question, and sorry for the trouble.
 * For this, you could use the `rowspan#` button below the table input fields. The“?”
   button next to it explains how to use it.
    Note that you will have to turn off
   the “Table Head” checkbox then as well. As this will not work otherwise.
 * This will then however mean that you can not use the JavaScript functions (like
   sorting and searching) for this table. In addition, you will have to manually
   add styling to the header rows, e.g. by using CSS code like [https://tablepress.org/faq/change-background-color-of-a-row/](https://tablepress.org/faq/change-background-color-of-a-row/)
 * Regards,
    Tobias
