[Forum] Add BBCode support for [table][/table]

[Campin_Killer]

Would definately help for tournaments, and avoid having to take Excel screenshots

The table support is nice, but it has a lot of other features that looks like it'd get in the way. While investigating it, did you see if we could disable some functions?

Yes! Here's a screen shot.

isaiah40 answered your question 4 1/2 months ago.

when will this be implemented ?

[DaveH]

I wrote about the use of these codes for making tables in Issue #94 http://www.conquerclub.com/forum/viewto ... 9&t=178308.

In this I wrote a simple Excel macro for forming a table of any numbers of rows and columns - I can see an update coming on!

[DaveH]

The reason why is because they aren't as functional as we would like them to be. They add unnecessary space at the beginning of any post with a table.

And it gets worse as you add more lines to your table, with the code blakebowling has submitted so far.

You can get rid of the space by excluding carriage returns. i.e. create just one line of code. For instance: [tr][td]Round:[/td][td]Table:[/td][td]Ante:[/td][td]Stake:[/td][td]Game:[/td][td][/td][td][/td][/tr][tr][td]4[/td][td]1[/td][td]100[/td][td]400[/td][td]Game 13132839[/td][td][/td][td][/td][/tr][tr][td]Players..[/td][td]Chips..[/td][td]Less Ante..[/td][td]Bids..[/td][td]Stake..[/td][td]After[/td][td][/td][/tr][tr][td]StubbsKVM[/td][td]500[/td][td]400[/td][td]Fold[/td][td]0[/td][td]400[/td][td][/td][/tr][tr][td]Leverpuller[/td][td]1700[/td][td]1600[/td][td]Call[/td][td]400[/td][td]1200[/td][td][/td][/tr][tr][td]wombat4[/td][td]200[/td][td]100[/td][td]All In[/td][td]100[/td][td]0[/td][td][/td][/tr][tr][td]TX AG 90[/td][td]500[/td][td]400[/td][td]All In[/td][td]400[/td][td]0[/td][td][/td][/tr][tr][td]blindman30[/td][td]300[/td][td]200[/td][td]All In[/td][td]200[/td][td]0[/td][td][/td][/tr][tr][td]GioDuce[/td][td]2800[/td][td]2700[/td][td]Fold[/td][td]0[/td][td]2700[/td][td][/td][/tr][tr][td]---[/td][td]---[/td][td]---[/td][td]---[/td][td]---[/td][td]---[/td][td][/td][/tr][tr][td]Total Before:[/td][td]6000[/td][td]Total:[/td][td]1100[/td][td]Total:[/td][td]4300[/td][td][/td][/tr][tr][td]Total Ante:[/td][td]600[/td][td]Winner:[/td][td]1700[/td][td]Check:[/td][td]6000[/td][td][/td][/tr][tr][td]---[/td][td]---[/td][td]---[/td][td]---[/td][td]---[/td][td]---[/td][td][/td][/tr][tr][td]Map:[/td][td]Kings Court II[/td][td]Esc[/td][td]Chained[/td][td]Yes[/td][td]No[/td][td][/td][/tr][/table]

Anyway; back to the suggestion - I would certainly support it. The more you can integrate Excell into CC the better from my point of view.

There is a BBCode for tables in phpBB forums.

[isaiah40]

I believe, and still do, that installing the upgraded phpBB BBCode is the better way to go.

[greenoaks]

I found a site that shows an example of how you can get a table rendered via bbcode using the {table}, {tr}, {td} and {th} tags. It came from BBcode.org.

Yes, that is the syntax that we want, I think, but those codes are not implemented in the version of phpBB that Conquer Club uses. I agree with isaiah40.

There may be some hiccups in behaviour when catching up to current versions of software, but generally things improve overall.

[greenoaks]

are we going to update sometime soon?

[grt]

Anyone know if we can do this yet?

I would really like to create a table in the forums but haven't found a way to do this yet

Table tags do work in the forums now.
There's no automation. You have to enter your tr, td, etc., tags manually. Speak to Ch0rn if you need advice.

Thanks - I worked it out.
