[Plugin: Front-end Editor] Problems editing tables

  • Hi guys
    Great plugin this!

    I have a problem editing tables with Front end editor. If i have a wordpress page or post with a table in (which i have just pasted from excel or other table format)

    Front end editor doesn’t really work on those tables.

    What i need is just to be able to edit numbers in tables in front-end. Is there another way if front end editor doesn’t work?

    Did you paste that table into the WordPress TinyMCE editor in the admin or directly into the Aloha editor on the front-end?

    Are you able to edit the table with TinyMCE?

    hmmm, i did just paste it from excel into the wordpress backend editor. What i have found out is that the code is full of styling. Width, colors, bold etc… This styling is what makes front end editor not work.

    So i guess the best way to solve this is to use CLEAN tables only with the data in them.

    Might there be a way to clean up a imported table? Maybe some kind of parsing procedure.

    But, i still want to find out what part of the styling it is that disturbs front-end editor. Because i would still like to add classes to rows like: odd, even. And i need to add column no.

    I will make som trials ??

    I remember that TinyMCE had a “Copy from Word” button. I think Aloha has something like this too, but it’s not enabled by default.

    If you find something relevant, please report the issue upstream, to the Aloha developers:
