So I was looking for a nice way to display my commands list, and of course I figured I’d use a table. Then I find out that Markdown has no tables. So is it:
a. Possible to use tables in the SpongeForums?
b. Possible to use tables in Ore?
c. Possible to add support for tables in one or both of them?
I know I could use a markdown table generator, but I’d really rather have native support.
Markdown does in fact have tables, like so:
| 1 | 2 | 3 |
|---|---|---|
| a | b | c |
| d | e | f |
However it seems the forums seems to ignore it.
The forums seems to completely ignore all tables, in fact; below this sentence is an HTML table.
| 1 | 2 | 3 |
|---|---|---|
| a | b | c |
| d | e | f |

That table syntax is a GitHub-flavored Markdown feature, and not part of the CommonMark spec, which simply suggests using HTML <table>s.
That said, I think both forms of table should be supported here in the future.
Tables do work on Ore.
