Table Content

Tables are used to create relational lists of data or text content. Tables require specific formatting to ensure they function on all devices.

Is a Table the Best Way to Present the Content? 

Before you add a table, consider adding your text directly on the page, using headers and lists. Tables can make some content harder to understand and view.  If you need a table, there are two design options.   

Table Snippet Option  

There are several predesigned tables (with a defined font size and pre-styled headers) available for use. When you use the table snippet you don't have to format table headers. You can just type text in the top row and it will be styled as a header. In the main content region you have the option to add the following:

Table 2-Column

Table Header Table Header
Tabular content Tabular content

Table 4-Column

TABLE HEADER TABLE HEADER TABLE HEADER TABLE HEADER
Tabular content Tabular content Tabular content Tabular content
Tabular content Tabular content Tabular content Tabular content

Tables requiring six columns should be built in the full-width region using the Table 6-Column-Full-Width snippet.

Custom Built Table Option

You can add tables using the JustEdit toolbar. Tables from the toolbar do not have predefined headers. To ensure that your custom built tables work properly for all users (especially users with accessibility challenges), you must assign headers. For more information on how to create a custom table, see Creating Tables in Modern Campus CMS (PDF).
