# rotating column headers?

 * Hi
    Great plugin! Is it possible to rotate the column titles (first row of table)
   90 degrees? Only I fdon’t have enough space to fit them in. I just tried (via
   debugger) to modify css of the <th> elements like this:
 *     ```
       writing-mode: vertical-rl !important; 
       text-orientation: sideways !important;
       ```
   
 * …but with no effect…
 * (I also find that the table is wider than the space allocated to it in the theme–
   wider than the tablepress wrapper – it overlaps with the right sidebar)
 * Thanks in advance for any help

 * Hi,
 * thanks for your post, and sorry for the trouble.
 * Unfortunately, this is a bit more difficult, not just in TablePress, but with
   tables in general. Please see e.g. [https://wordpress.org/support/topic/vertical-table-head/#post-11169951](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/vertical-table-head/#post-11169951)
   for some approaches.
 * Regards,
    Tobias
