Table Options and Formatting

Tables can be easily modified:

Use this guide for your table formatting options.  A sample table is provided at the bottom of the page as a reference.

  • [Table]: The website will render a table for you with the items inside the [table]…[/table] tags.
  • Rows: Each line will be a new row.
  • Columns: You separate the columns with a “|” vertical bar which is the “shift-\” button usually above the enter key.
  • Table Headers: The first row is going to be the header columns. Then each additional row is your data.
  • Single Space: For a new line hold shift when you press the return key and it will do a single space rather than double space.  Either will work fine but I find the single return to be nicer to look at when working with a table.
  • Media/File Links: For PDF links click the “Add Media” button and upload your pdf file.
