 * Hello!
 * I can’t get fixedheader to work with tablepress. It’s a simple tablepress test
   table. Looked through forum, and tried several things accordingly but to no avail.
 * [table id=37 datatables_fixedheader=both /]
 * 1) installed fixedheader extension for tablepress (activated)
    2) “Use DataTables”
   checked 3) Added this to Plugin Options .tablepress.fixedHeader-floating {z-index:
   1000 !important;} 4) Checked Browser Dev Logs (have error but Divi assures me
   only a warning) 5) Am NOT using “merged cells”
 * Any help is appreciated – Sam
 * The page I need help with: _[[log in](https://login.wordpress.org/?redirect_to=https%3A%2F%2Fwordpress.org%2Fsupport%2Ftopic%2Ftablepress-fixed-header-plugin%2F%3Foutput_format%3Dmd&locale=en_US)
   to see the link]_

 * Hi,
 * thanks for your question, and sorry for the trouble.
 * From what I can see, you will need an even higher `z-index`:
 *     ```
       .tablepress.fixedHeader-floating {z-index: 100000 !important;}
       ```
   
 * Can you please try that?
 * Alternatively, you could use the `datatables_fixedheader_offset` Shortcode parameter,
   to keep the fixed header below the site navigation.
 * Regards,
    Tobias
