 * After upgrading to 4.1.3, I’ve lost the ability to change the width of the table.
   It bleeds onto the right sidebar. How can I modify the width of the table to 
   fit the content pane? (BTW, I love the plugin).

 * Not sure why the upgrade would have caused the problem, but I did find a solution.
   Go to **WP-Admin > Appearance > Editor** and add this line to the very bottom
   of your theme’s `style.css` file:
 *     ```
       table.sortable td {
           word-break: break-all;
       }
       ```
   
 * That should do the trick.

 * Also, you may want to add this:
 *     ```
       table.sortable th {
           word-break: break-all;
           word-wrap: break-word;
           white-space: nowrap;
       }
       table.sortable .col1 {
           min-width: 2.6em;
       }
       ```
   
 * That will keep your column headers from breaking across multiple lines, and keep
   your first column wide enough to accommodate four-digit numbers.

 * Hi Shaun,
 * Thank you! The solution in your first reply did the trick. I also added the solution
   in your second reply to be safe.
 * I had been looking around and tried the header code many times before posting
   my q, but it didn’t work. I totally forgot about the column code.
 * Keep up the good work.
