[Resolved] How to insert a divider between table rows

This thread is resolved. Here is a description of the problem and solution.

Problem: I would like to insert a divider between table rows in my View using a shortcode from my theme:

[themify_hr color="#73af00" width="100%" border_width="20px"]

Solution: It's not valid HTML to add a shortcode in between table rows, so it's best to use CSS to style the individual rows and cells.

<tr class="border-bottom">   
  [wpv-post-body view_template="Loop item in Current Users Projects"]
</tr>
tr.border-bottom {
    border-bottom: 10px solid #73af00;
    padding: 50px;
    margin: 50px;
}
tr.border-bottom td {
    padding-top: 20px;
    padding-bottom: 20px;
}

I am trying to:

Add a divider:

[themify_hr color="#73af00" width="100%" border_width="20px"]

In my Loop with Views:
Code in my "Loop Output Editor"

[wpv-layout-start]
	[wpv-items-found]
	<!-- wpv-loop-start -->
	<table width="100%">
		<thead>
          [wpv-found-count]
			<tr>
				<th>[wpv-heading name=""][/wpv-heading]</th>
				<th>[wpv-heading name="post-link"]Title[/wpv-heading]</th>
				<th>[wpv-heading name="types-field-loan-number"]Number[/wpv-heading]</th>
				<th>[wpv-heading name="types-field-status"]Status[/wpv-heading]</th>
				<th>[wpv-heading name=""]Log[/wpv-heading]</th>
			</tr>
		</thead>               
		<tbody class="wpv-loop js-wpv-loop">
		<wpv-loop>
			<tr>   
				[wpv-post-body view_template="Loop item in Current Users Projects"]
			</tr>
		</wpv-loop>
		</tbody>
	</table>
	<!-- wpv-loop-end -->
	[/wpv-items-found]
	[wpv-no-items-found]
		<strong>[wpml-string context="wpv-views"]No projects found[/wpml-string]</strong>
	[/wpv-no-items-found]
[wpv-layout-end]

Code in my "Loop item in Current Users Projects"

<td>[wpv-post-featured-image]</td>
<td>[wpv-post-link]</td>
<td>[types field='loan-number'][/types]<br>
[wpv-post-date]<br>
<a href="[wpv-bloginfo show='url']/[wpv-post-type]/[wpv-post-slug]">VIEW</a>
</td>
<td>[types field='status'][/types]<br>
[wpv-post-comments-number]<br>
[toolset-edit-post-link layout_slug="update-project"]UPDATE[/toolset-edit-post-link]&nbsp;&nbsp;[cred_delete_post_link class='cred-refresh-after-delete' text='Delete' message='Are you sure you want to delete this project?' message_after='Project deleted' message_show='1' action='trash']  
</td>
<td>[wpv-view name="Login User Project Count"]</td>

Link to a page where the issue can be seen:
hidden link

I expected to see:

Instead, I got:

I've tried this for hours and can't get it right... could you please tell me where to insert my short code?:

[themify_hr color="#73af00" width="100%" border_width="20px"]

Well it's not valid HTML to include this type of shortcode directly inside the table, tbody, or tr tags. You could put it directly in the td tags, but it will be broken apart into cells. So I think the best solution is to use CSS to style the bottom of each row instead. Something like this in your loop:

<tr class="border-bottom">   
                [wpv-post-body view_template="Loop item in Current Users Projects"]
            </tr>

And this in your Content Template CSS:

tr.border-bottom {
    border-bottom: 1px solid #73af00;
}

Oh wow!
Thank you so much Cox!
This indeed worked... the only remaining issue is that the line touches the pictures...
I'm trying to add some padding/margin under or above this border.

I tried:

tr.border-bottom {
    border-bottom: 10px solid #73af00;
    padding: 50px;
    margin: 50px;
}

No success..

I've tried a bunch of combinations but I don't seem to get it right..
I even tried copying your method:

	<tr class="border-bottom" class="border-top">   
                [wpv-post-body view_template="Loop item in Current Users Projects"]
        </tr>

with

tr.border-bottom {
    border-bottom: 10px solid #73af00;
}
tr.border-top {
    border-top: 10px solid #ffffff;
}

But no success. Could you please help me figure this out as well?

Also, is it possible to make the first cell of each row not as wide?
I really like how the feature image displays 100% width and 100% height without any cropping but there is still too much space in the right.. (Please see my image attached)

I'm trying to add some padding/margin under or above this border.
Add the padding to each td element in the row instead:

tr.border-bottom td {
    padding-top: 20px;
    padding-bottom: 20px;
}
<tr class="border-bottom" class="border-top"> 

FYI: To add multiple classes to the same element, combine them in a single class attribute instead:

<tr class="border-bottom border-top">  

Also, is it possible to make the first cell of each row not as wide?
Yes, you can set a specific width for the first cell in each row like this:

<td style="width:150px;">[wpv-post-featured-image]</td>
