Explanation
Tables are used to display data in an organized format. WordPress provides a shortcode [table]
to create tables with headers and cells.
Use
Tables can be used to display any kind of data - from simple lists to complex data sets. They can be used in blog posts, product pages, or any other page that requires the presentation of data in a structured manner.
Important Points
- Use headers to clearly define the contents of each column
- Use
<tbody>
to group table rows together - You can also add
<tfoot>
to add a footer to the table
Summary
Tables are useful elements for displaying data on WordPress websites. By using the [table]
shortcode and formatting it properly, you can create tables that are easy to read and navigate. Remember to use headers to clarify the columns and group rows together using <tbody>
