Tables
After the last round of module upgrades the syntax for tables has changed slightly. Anyone creating or modifying challenges should be aware:
1. There is no longer a need to specify the background colour of each line to get the alternating background colour for tables. The textile module now uses the themes configuration for alternating background colours in tables, which has been there all along but due to an issue in the textile module was not being picked up.
Old syntax:
{background:#FFFFFF}. |Blood|Y|-|
{background:#dddddd}. |Deadite|-|-|
{background:#FFFFFF}. |don-robbery|-|-|
{background:#dddddd}. |KillerSL|-|-|
{background:#FFFFFF}. |Kippa|-|-|
{background:#dddddd}. |Limpet|-|-|
New syntax:
|Blood|-|-|
|Deadite|-|-|
|don-robbery|-|-|
|KillerSL|-|-|
|Kippa|-|-|
2. Table heading syntax changed
Old syntax:
||_. Team IPX||_. Thursday, February 2nd at 8:30PM EDT 10.30pm NZDT|_. Playing|
New syntax:
|_. Team IPX|_. Monday, Febuary 6th at 8:00PM EDT 10pm NZDT|_. Playing|

Damn
Time too restart the Guide on a how to make a table :)
lol
if anything it’s just easier now. Removed all hacky stuff we had to do to make the tables look like what we wanted. Just left with some clean looking textile syntax.
There’s some cool new features in this version of textile too. We use about 10% of textile (bold, tables, strikethrough) but there’s plenty more to it. Check it out if you cant sleep like me :) (seriously… thats what i did last night to try and make myself fall asleep. Didn’t work…)
Flash?
Unless its flashin text, you can shove your Santa Tax… Oh… Hang on santax
Still we need more flashing!
Seriously tho! That’s good info fuzz! Slowly but surely we are getting there with the simplification of stuff!
(I assume this doesn’t affect the older tables?) you know people are gunna keep cutting and pasting!
lol
Flash still prohibited hehe
Yeah have never been real happy that we had to put in the background colours. So having it do it automatically is a nice touch. The tables are just a little bit less daunting looking now.
Yep it effects all the old tables too unfortunately. They all look gumby now. I updated the one Mattatuide put in today to use the new syntax, then wrote this post so everyone knows. Easiest thing to do is just copy paste from the latest challenge.
If anyone wants to fix any of the old ones up, it’s 5 svalbards PER challenge. With 206 challenges in our system now, that’s potentially 1000+ svalbards up for grabs for some manual labour.
Can’t hurt to ask can it :)
