Question

Just installed the Sep 2004 release & I'm not getting the new indented tables facility (that is, if the bar isn't in column one, it's not a table). Obviously I haven't got my install right (I couldn't use the upgrade script when I did it, for reasons beyond my control)

I'm being a dummy, but any ideas what I've done wrong?

Ok:

• some text

  table header	col 2
  1	2

turns out for me to look like

• some text | table header | col 2 | | 1 | 2 |

I just copy & paste'd the working bit above into our TWiki & it looked like the second example. I don't know which module renders tables, but I guess I haven't updated it properly.

I don't believe the RicherSyntaxPlugin was installed on TWiki.org, so I didn't even think about it, I assumed this was new functionality in the basic table handling

Actually if RicherSyntaxPlugin isn't installed here it is on our site, so odder & odder.

Answer

Not sure I understand. Could you make an example on this topic here with the table issue?

maybe you're referring to the RicherSyntaxPlugin? (which supports table rendering that doesn't start in the first column). there's also TablePlugin, which ships with CairoRelease

Try to disable all Plugins to find out if one of the Plugin is the culprit, see $disableAllPlugins flag in TWiki.cfg. Try to narrow down by disabling one Plugin by one (rename Plugin topic)

You were right, Will - we had the RicherSyntaxPlugin installed, and it was preventing the indented table formating from working. I followed Peter's advice - well actually I quickly disabled all plugins & the formating worked, so I knew the facility was in basic TWiki & my installation was OK. I then re-enabled the plugins & removed a couple at a time (for speed), I quickly homed in on the culprit being RicherSyntaxPlugin. I guess it clashes with the new treatment indented tables.
