How do I use Tables on my site?

Use the table function in the WYSIWYG editor to align your content for a clean look! Tables can be used anywhere that you have access to the editing toolbar (ie. custom pages, articles, blogs, etc). 

Create a table on a custom page: 

1. Navigate to your custom page and enter Edit mode.
2. Click into an existing section on your page or make a new one. 
3. Click the table icon from the editing toolbar, and enter your desired number of columns and rows in the fields provided.
4. Click OK.
5. Click into each cell to add text. 
6. Save and publish your changes when you are done. 

Change the background colour of a table cell: 

1. Navigate to your custom page and enter Edit mode.
2. Right-click into the cell whose background colour you wish to change. 
3. Choose Cell > Cell Properties. 
4. Enter a hex value (ie. #fffffff) into the Background Color field, or choose a specific colour using the button provided. 
   
5. Click OK and save or publish your changes.

Create transparent table borders:  

1. Navigate to your custom page and enter Edit mode.
2. Highlight all of the cells in your table.
3. Right-click on your table and choose Cell > Cell Properties. 
4. Enter the value #FFFFFF into the Border Color field (this will create white borders to match the default background colour of your SilkStart pages). 
   
5. Click OK and save or publish your changes. 

Customize your table:

To make further adjustments to your table's configurations, right-click into any cell of your table and choose Table Properties. From here, use the popup window to add new rows/columns, add a summary, caption, or header row, and more!
