 * This should be easy, but I can’t make it work. I want to override any column 
   width settings and left-justify content when my tables go mobile. I’ve got
 * [@media](https://wordpress.org/support/users/media/) (max-width: 767px) {
    .tablepress-
   responsive-stack-phone tbody td { width: 100%; text-align: left; } }`
 * Nothing seems to happen when I view the table on its page on my phone.

 * Hi,
 * thanks for your post, and sorry for the trouble.
 * Can you please post a link to the page with the table where this problem happens,
   so that I can take a direct look? Thanks!
 * Regards,
    Tobias

 * I guess I didn’t really think about it. Using
 * [@media](https://wordpress.org/support/users/media/) (max-width: 767px) {
    .tablepress-
   responsive-stack-phone tbody td { width: 100%; text-align: left !important; }}`
 * works just fine. I realized my oversite when I looked at devtools:
 *     ```
       @media (max-width: 767px)
       .tablepress-responsive-stack-phone tbody td {
           display: block;
           text-align: center;
           border-top: none;
       }
       @media (max-width: 767px)
       .tablepress-responsive-stack-phone tbody td {
           width: 100%;
           text-align: left;                        <--- strikeout
       }
       ```
