 Word Press Tables do not completely fulfill accessibility requirements for
 scaling. When a user zooms in on a webpage, particularly above 200%,
 content within the Word Press table is either squeezed or truncated with
 no horizontal scrollbar. Is there a possibility to add a horizontal
 scrollbar to the Word Press table?

 This corresponds to the WebAIM 1.4.10 Reflow (WCAG 2.1 Level AA)
 - No loss of content or functionality occurs and horizontal scrolling is
 avoided when content is presented at a width of 320 pixels.
 - This requires responsive design for most web sites. This is best tested
 by setting the browser window to 1280 pixels wide and then zooming the
 page content to 400%.
 - Content that requires horizontal scrolling, such as data tables, complex
 images (such as maps and charts), toolbars, etc. are exempted.
