How to Embed Tables in WordPress Codex

The Wordpress codex is the template and setup you use when you install a WordPress blog on your website. The codex provides you with a template that is used to display your blog. The WordPress admin area has an interface where you can edit the code on your blog. This section of the admin area is where you can add a table in the WordPress codex template.

Instructions

1. Open your Web browser. Type the website address for your WordPress blog in the address text box and press "Enter." Click the "Site Admin" link on your blog to access the administration dashboard.

2. Click the "Appearance" side panel, then click "Editor." A list of WordPress files is shown on the right side. Click the "SinglePost" link on the right side. This is the code for your WordPress posts.

3. Scroll down to the section where you want to place your table. You want to enter the table in sections outside of the PHP code. PHP code is designated with the "<?php" and "?>" tags. Place the table code outside of these two tags.

4. Type your table code. For example, the following code places a table with two rows and one column in your WordPress PHP code:

   <table>

   <tr><td>My table></td></tr>

   <tr><td> Second row </td></tr>

   </table>

5. Click "Update File" to save your changes. To preview your new changes, view your blog posts in the browser. The table shows in your blog in each post.
