If you’re building out a page and need to add a table, here are a few tips to help you with the process:
First, click into the text area where you’d like the table to be located. Then you can click the Insert table button. A grid will display below.
Inserting a table with 1 row and 10 columns.

If you need to add more than ten rows to a table, you can click into the bottom right cell of the table you’ve inserted and press tab on your keyboard**.** This will add another row. If you regularly need to make larger tables, there is a feature we can install on your site to allow this.

When your cursor is anywhere in the table, you can use the toolbar (shown in the image below) to add another column to the left or right, or to add a row above or below.
Button actions from left to right: Column, row, merge cells, table caption
Using the buttons in this same toolbar, you can delete columns or rows, as well.
You can also use the toolbar to enable a header column and/or row. We strongly encourage adding a header row to all tables to improve formatting of tables on mobile devices as well as to ensure full accessibility.
The third button on the toolbar allows you to merge cells up, right, down, or left, as well as split cells.
The fourth button allows you to add a caption to your table.
