Tables

  • I’m trying to put a table in a post but if the table is more than one row tall, everything disappears once the post is saved except for the first row. Is there something special I need to do to get a table to save and display correctly? I should also add I am putting the code in the editor by hand.

    Try this plugin called ST Visualize Advanced Features

    It adds an extra area on the WYSIWYG toolbar when you create a post and allows you to create tables. That might solve your problem.

    I tried it to no avail. Once published, everything in the table except the top row gets deleted.

    Maybe try this instead?

    I am having this ‘tables disappearing’ act as well. Did ‘finecoastalliving’ get it sorted? I tried the wp-table plugin but that has severe limitations to how I want to work it. I want to be able to pull my source table from DW8 and for it to display in WordPress so punters can have their two bits worth of comment.

    If I enter the code and save it works. As soon as I switch back to visual input (to perhaps update the table or add an introduction) most of the table magically disappears.

    Ah!

    I have just found that if you enter the table without a <tr class=”this”> then the table stays.

    I have this problem too, and hadn’t used a class statement.

    I’m not very technical, so I’ve been writing any tables code in notepad and then pasting it into the wordpress editor.
    If I reopen that post, it all disappears again, so if I’m lucky I kept a copy of the code on my computer and can repaste it. Otherwise, bleah!

    The issue occurs with both posts and pages, so it looks to me as though the problem is with the editor platform.

    Has anyone else been experiencing this problem?
    Has anyone any input?

    Thank you,
    Jane
