Doesn't look like it's working.
From what I can see the "Insert table" button puts in a very basic table layout and then leaves you to edit it yourself. The tags seem to be standard HTML but with [] rather than <> - see
W3Schools offers free online tutorials, references and exercises in all the major languages of the web. Covering popular subjects like HTML, CSS, JavaScript, Python, SQL, Java, and many, many more.
w3schools.com
for examples.

Can't work out how to make it work. May be one for Mrs Poorfour.

Spoke too soon. Looks like you might have **** it. How did you do it?

If you don't see the code below in courier font, press CTRL-F5 or clear your cache!

Code: [Select]
[img]https://emoji.tapatalk-cdn.com/emoji1.png[/img]

[table]
[tr]
[td]head1      [/td] [td]head2       [/td] [td]head3       [/td]
[/tr]
[tr]
[td]col1      [/td] [td]col2       [/td] [td]col3       [/td]
[/tr]
[tr]
[td]col1      [/td] [td]col2       [/td] [td]col3       [/td]
[/tr]
[/table]


Where
"table" starts a table, "/table" ends it
"tr" starts a table row, "/tr" ends it
"td" starts a table cell, "/td" ends it

the emoji at the top let's me know if I've pressed the "HTML" button!

Take a copy of your code before you save it. If you get it wrong then the system tries to insert its own HTML tags and the whole thing is tangled.

Given the above code uses the [ code ]   [ /code ] pairing, you might be better off just pasting in plain text in courier font between that pair of HTML commands (removing the spaces, of course). So I did that below using tabs to space them, of course you can't use any other codes now like bold or centre or anything.

Code: [Select]
head1 head2 head3       
col1 col2 col3       
col1 col2 col3

What'd he say?

This came from an HTML editor, changed the < to ], and it was more or less OK

Head1head2head3

OK - this is how you do it.

go to
a free utility that allows you to quickly create a data table and generate the necessary BBCodes
teamopolis.com


Follow the steps. Do not click that the first row is a header row (even if it is)
Paste the resulting code

Head1Head2Head3
col1col2col3
column1column2column3

Code: [Select]
[table]
[tr]
[td]Head1[/td]
[td]Head2[/td]
[td]Head3[/td]
[/tr]
[tr]
[td]col1[/td]
[td]col2[/td]
[td]col3[/td]
[/tr]
[tr]
[td]column1[/td]
[td]column2[/td]
[td]column3[/td]
[/tr]
[/table]
[code]

Is this for real? Surely there’s better functionality that doesn’t require an IT degree. Don’t understand the photo thing at all - it won’t let me attach anything.

Tables are the only major problem I can see. They weren't (theoretically) available at all on the previous board. If you have a simple table to post I suggest you use the "code" button, the one with a "#" sign.
Simply start your table
Code: [Select]
[code]
head1     head2    head3
col1      col2     col3
[ /code] (without the space)

I did it using excel by using the insert table option & using tr & td for table row & table data in columns between the data values, Name, DOB Position etc
Code: [Select]
[table]
[tr]
[td][/td]
[/tr]
[/table]
so my worksheet looks like
Code: [Select]
[tr][td] Name [/td][td] DoB [/td][td] Position[/td][td] Contract [/td][td]
[tr][td] Nick Auterac [/td][td] 12/11/1991 [/td][td] LH Prop [/td][td] 2019/20 ? [/td][td]
[tr][td] Lewis Boyce [/td][td] 30/6/1996 [/td][td] LH Prop [/td][td] 2018/19 +? [/td][td]
[tr][td] George Head [/td][td] 4/8/1999 [/td][td] LH Prop [/td][td] Academy [/td][td]
[tr][td] Mark Lambert [/td][td] 19/2/1985 [/td][td] LH Prop [/td][td] 2017/18 +? [/td][td]
