Issue viewing table rows in wagtail

[JonellaCulmer]

What we're after:
There's an issue in Wagtail that prevents users from seeing all created table rows. There are currently two unfriendly workarounds to address this: resizing the browser window until the rows appear, and deleting and re-adding a row. To address this issue we need to ensure consistent and reliable access to all rows without hacks.

Completion criteria:

• All table rows are consistently viewable on all draft and published wagtail pages/templates with table functionality

Screenshots:

Audit published page: missing bottom 4 rows. This is also happening on draft pages.

Published E&J page: missing hundreds of rows

Below is a link to the commit where I fixed the hidden-table-row bug in Wagtail just for ReportingDatesTable template. It admittedly feels kinda hacky (cc:
@rfultz .) Also, it will be more difficult to target all occurances of the table-block in css because of the way the elements are named in the editor's html.

I was hoping this would just be resolved in newer versions of Wagtail , but surprisingly, I have not found many others complaining about/discussing it on Wagtail-related forums.

I've updated the estimate to 3. If you think it's bigger than that, we can split the ticket up and target most important templates first.
