 * I have two issues, and I’m willing to pay you to do the customization.
 * 1. I currently have 254 tables, but if I add a new table, the next table will
   be #259 (it skips 4). How can I get the numbering to be where it should be again?
 * 2. On some of my tables, I’d like them to look like T-accounts, in accounting,
   but I don’t know the CSS required to do that. I suppose that I could remove the
   borders for some of the cells, and darken the borders for some of the others,
   but I’m willing to pay for the customization, if that will make things easier
   on me.

 * Hi,
 * thanks for your question, and sorry for the trouble.
 * 1. This difference is caused by tables that were deleted. As table IDs will not
   be re-used, the number of tables and the current ID don’t match. You could either
   manually change a table back to a smaller number, if you really need the IDs 
   to be consecutive. You could also use the TablePress Extension from [https://tablepress.org/download/extension/tablepress-debug.zip](https://tablepress.org/download/extension/tablepress-debug.zip)
   which will add a “Debug” tab to TablePress on which there is a setting to reset
   the “Last Used ID” to a desired number.
 * 2. Unfortunately, I’m not aware of an existing set of CSS commands to achieve
   such layout for T-accounts, sorry. Your best chance might indeed be to create
   some “Custom CSS” code to influence the borders. Unfortunately, I’m not able 
   to offer professional customization services around this at this time, sorry.
 * Regards,
    Tobias
