How to Use Flexible Table Block

Flexible Table Block here.

Once the plugin is installed, "Flexible Table" can be inserted as a block.

Many other table plugins require you to create tables on a dedicated screen and insert them with shortcodes. While that might be feature-rich, if you just want to create a simple table, this type is easier to edit, isn't it?

Set the number of columns and rows, then create.

When you select a cell, you can set various options in the right-hand menu.

From "Cell Settings > Cell Tag" within that menu, you can select "TH" to make it a header cell. This is what I wanted to do!

Other essential features include merging cells and vertical alignment on smartphones.

You can select multiple cells while holding down the Ctrl key and merge them from "Merge Cells".

You can also split cells that have been merged.

With the table selected, you can enable vertical alignment on smartphones from "Table Settings > Stack Vertically on Mobile".

It's perfect.

Also, "Flexible Table Block" applies various unique CSS styles.

If you want to apply your own styles,

from "Global Settings".

Click "Reset"

to prevent styles from being applied.

Similarly, for "Cell Styles", click "Reset" for all.

This minimizes the unique CSS applied.

I think Flexible Table Block is the only table plugin you need.
