    Hi as i am a newbie i upfront apologize for maybe a stupid question.

    I love the Participants Database plugin and as far as installing and setting up its going ok.
    But now i want to make the layout a bit nicer have the column sized accordingly so i understand i should be using CSS, but here i just dont have the knowledge. I also cant find any nice examples that could help me on the way.

    Is there anything i could use create a custom css setup using the
    Custom Plugin Stylesheet field in the plugin settings?

    The page I need help with: [log in to see the link]

    CSS presents a steep learning curve at first, it is a very flexible language that will also require that you know HTML pretty well. I do have an article that can get you started:

    Simple CSS Techniques for WordPress

    To specifically comment on your question: setting table column widths is tricky, it is always impossible to make columns wider, you must instead make other columns narrower, giving the columns that need more width the space to expand. You can set columns widths in a table by setting the width of the header cell.

    The easiest solution to not enough width in columns is to display fewer of them.
