I've created a table using the 'Create a data table manually' option. I need to create three 'header' rows and merge some of the cells to add wording/titles but I can't see how to do that - could you let me know please? Sorry if I'm being thick!
I initially used the 'Create a simple table from scratch' option where it was easy to do, however I need to be able to add column CSS classes to control column widths - unless there's a way to do that using the 'simple table' option?
to see if someone may be already suggested this feature. If you can't see it, feel free to add your suggestion there, and as more people vote, the feature will move higher on the priority list.
You can certainly follow our changeLog page if you'd like ( it is also available in the plugin dashboard), where we state any changes/new features/bug fixes during updates;
and our newsletter, so you're informed about new features, bug fixes, freebies, etc.
You can add a CSS class directly in a cell of a table, and then you can edit, for example, for cell number 1 :
<div class="abc">Some text 123</div>
Then on the front end we would add this custom CSS:
td .abc {
width: 350px;
}
and this will change the column width on the front-end.
It is a similar method to do any CSS rules that you wish to apply.
Custom code needs to be applied to the page where the booking form is. Depending on what you're using (Gutenberg blocks, or some page builder), adding the CSS or JS can be done in a few different ways.
If you need help with adding custom CSS to the page, please take a look at this article.

If you wish to add the same CSS to all tables, you can add this to the main plugin settings/Custom JS and CSS/Custom CSS.
Firstly, I would like to sincerely apologize for the delayed response as we have been experiencing an unusually high number of tickets. I am sorry that it has taken longer than usual to respond to your concern and your patience is highly appreciated.
I am delighted to hear that this has been resolved.
Thank you for letting us know.
Please don't hesitate to create new tickets for anything else we could assist with.

Hi, Guy.
You are correct, at this time merging cells is only possible for Simple Tables.
For any other table type - it is currently not possible to merge cells in any way.
You can make a suggestion though, and our developers will work on adding this option as soon as possible for other table types.
