XF 1.4 Table issue with bbcode

[Zynektic]

Hi there,

We are trying to get a row or column to merge or expand in XenForo which I assume needs the colspan/rowspan to be done however, having searched awhile I am still unsure if this can be done or not. I have attached an example of what we want to do and was wondering if it was possible on XenForo. The colours are not needed, just there to highlight what I meant.

Also, when adding a table inside a spoiler tag it does not show correctly and by that I mean it adds a scroll bar which I guess is due to table size, any way to fix that without a scrollbar?

Thanks!

You will need to create custom bb code to span columns and rows in a table.

Is there a guide you can recommend on doing this or an addon which will do it that I can purchase if its paid?

Thanks, Brogan.

Have a look how it's done here for basic table tags: https://xenforo.com/community/resources/cta-table-bb-code.2847/

Then you can use that as a guide to create new ones for colspan and rowspan.
