 * Hello Tobias, I have been checking this support forum but nothing seems to work
   for me. Sorry to trouble you.
 * The issue is that I am using the responsive tablets plugin with the shortcode
   but it still messes up everything on mobile and tablet. It changes rows per columns
   and also it doesn’t make all cells the same height so it is difficult to undersand
   the table.
 * I would be grateful if you could help me. The link is [http://comprarunatablet.net/comparativa-tablets/](http://comprarunatablet.net/comparativa-tablets/)
 * Thanks in advance
 * PD: I bought you a coffe and probably buy you another one as tablepress is great.
   Ty for your work.

 * Hi,
 * thanks for your post, and sorry for the trouble.
 * The reason for this basically is that the height of your rows is different. Unfortunately,
   due to technical limitations, the Responsive Tables Extension can not determine
   the proper heights of the rows automatically (by default it therefore only looks
   good in tables with evenly spaced rows). Thus, you will have to set the row heights
   manually, with some extra “Custom CSS” on the “Plugin Options” screen.
 *     ```
       @media (max-width: 979px) {
           .tablepress-id-22 td {
               height: 170px;
           }
       }
       ```
   
 * Alternatively, you could use an approach without the flipping of the table, i.
   e. with just adding horizontal scrolling. For that, please see [https://wordpress.org/support/topic/responsive-tables-scroll-only?replies=6#post-5511954](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/responsive-tables-scroll-only?replies=6#post-5511954)

 * Thank you for the support Tobias, it worked like a charm. It flips rows and columns
   but I guess it is how the extension works.
 * Next coffee is on me!

 * Hi,
 * correct, as shown on the Extension’s web page, that’s what the Extension is supposed
   to do 🙂
    And thanks for wanting to donate, I really appreciate it!
 * Regards,
    Tobias
