[Support request] html TABLES ARE NOT RESPONSIVE AT ALL

[SAURABH]

hi,

Very bad experience. In the theme, If I insert any HTML table (https://ibb.co/68fCg3L), It is not responsive at all. While in other themes, it automatically makes it responsive.
I cannot use any plugin like Tablepress, ninja tables or etc because of table needs. I have to create tables in each and every post/page with different designs. So it’s quite complicated if I use plugins.

any updates on this?

Hi Guys,
I am not getting updates on my concerns.

Hi there,

HTML tables aren’t responsive by default, which is why plugins like TablePress etc.. exist.

This article might be helpful: https://css-tricks.com/accessible-simple-responsive-tables/

This plugin might be worth checking out as well: https://wordpress.org/plugins/wp-responsive-table/

If possible, I would use something like flexbox instead of tables, as you can achieve the same visual effect while maintaining responsiveness.

Adding CSS to the theme to make tables responsive likely isn’t something we’ll do, as it would require a lot of CSS for something only a handful of people need. Something like this is best added on a per-need basis.

We try to respond to every question within 24 hours (usually within 12).

Hope this helps!

Sorry, It is not solving my problem.
Many free templates are providing responsive features.

For Example:
https://justfreethemes.com/demo/?theme=Revenue
Click on (in the header): Full Width
On this page, You can see that its table is responsive.

In that case, I would like to go with free themes. I was expecting these feature but Generatepress doesn’t have it. I am removing the license keys. Kindly revoke my license and credit the money to my account.

I think the issue you’re having is due to your content in the table. I just copied the HTML from your page and added it to the example theme you mentioned above, and here’s the result: https://www.screencast.com/t/Ln1UI8ZBAN

If you have regular text in your table with spaces, the result should be much better.

Of course, I’m happy to issue a refund if you’d like, just shoot us an email using the Account Issue form here: https://generatepress.com/account

Thanks!

I don’t know what is the error in your contact form (https://ibb.co/6gcQd24). It’s not allowing me to submit.

Hi Saurabh,

Would you try adding the css below and see if it improves things? I wouldn’t abandon such a great theme on an issue like this which is not theme related at all. Just my 2 cents, not part of forum stuff. Hope its ok i chime in 🙂

table {
    display: grid;
}

I am going to use other themes as not getting what I want. I request you to return my money. I am getting an error (https://ibb.co/6gcQd24) while filing the form.

Not sure why you are getting errors for the form.

I’ve already forwarded your request and we will process the refund soon and update here.

Thanks for your patience 🙂

[SAURABH]

Many thank Leo. Have a nice day!!
