Ah, I see! That would explain a lot. My phone is definitely outdated.

We do use the wikitable class sometimes, but we wanted some different styling options because some of our tables have subtables in them for display/spacing purposes and as you know, using the wikitable would not display them how we would like because they'd be using the .css set by the wikitable class otherwise.

I tried a few variations in MediaWiki:Common.css. I didn't even start to worry about the subtable css yet because I could not get the main custom table .css to work either.

These are two variations that I tried:

Variation #1: table.breedingchart { border: 1px solid #878787; border-collapse: collapse; background-color: #CCCCCC; color: black; padding: 0.2em; }

Variation #2: .breedingchart { border: 1px solid #878787; border-collapse: collapse; background-color: #CCCCCC; color: black; padding: 0.2em; }

Then I attempted to make a table using that class like so:

The resulting table showed up with no styling.
