 * Hi
 * Could you help please?
 * 1) I need to change the colour of the background in the first row.
    2) I’d like
   to use alternate rows, as the grey backgrounds in the alternate rows are good.
   However, when the last row has no colour background, there is no bottom rule 
   to finish the table. How can I introduce a rule there please?
 * Thank You.

 * Hi
 * One more question please – In FAQs I have seen how to change the header/footer
   colours. However, I can’t seem to change the thickness of the footer rule/border
   below 10px. How do I do this please?
 * Thank you.

 * Hi Tobias
 * The site is in Maintenance Mode, but I’ll turn that off for the next few hours
   for you to take a look.

 * Hi,
 * thanks for the link! Indeed, the site seems to be in maintenance mode, as I don’t
   see a table?

 * Hi,
 * thanks! Now I can see the table. The bottom rule is actually not a border line
   here, but the empty table footer. As these are still cells, they will get the
   minimum height as defined by the padding (inner white space) in the cells.
    Thus,
   instead of using this empty footer row here, I’d recommend to instead use this“
   Custom CSS” to add an actual border bottom rule:
 *     ```
       .tablepress-id-1 {
       	border-bottom: 4px solid #faedd1;
       }
       ```
