 * Hi,
 * I am trying to remove the lines in my table, and I put the following CSS in, 
   from your FAQ:
 * .tablepress-id-1,
    .tablepress-id-1 tr, .tablepress-id-1 tbody td, .tablepress-
   id-1 thead th, .tablepress-id-1 tfoot th { border: none; }
 * This did not work, so I spent quite a bit of time researching the forums and 
   trying various things, such as removing the top border from specific rows, but
   nothing I have tried has worked. I use your terrific plugin on several of my 
   sites and have always been able to solve problems with research through the forums,
   but this one has me stuck. Thanks for any insight you can give.

 * Hi,
 * thanks for your question, and sorry for the trouble.
    It seems that your theme
   is also adding borders to tables, but with a higher priority. To again overwrite
   that, please change the line
 *     ```
       border: none;
       ```
   
 * to
 *     ```
       border: none !important;
       ```
   
 * Regards,
    Tobias
