Hello Mike,

I’ve never personally tried to put a table into a set of tabs, but I don’t see why it wouldn’t work. Have you tried? Or are you unsure how to structure a table with HTML?

You can see an example here: http://www.themeblvd.com/demo/alyeska/features/typography/

The html table code that I insert into the Tabs element content box in the builder layout seems to get ignored. My text and numbers show up, but not in the table format.

Any ideas?

Aw, you mean within the raw content in the layout builder. No, I apologize but this won’t work. The table HTML will get stripped out. You’d need to exclude an external page with your HTML.

So, in the Tabs element, select “External page” for the content source, and then include a page where you’ve included the table. Does that work?

Well that was easy! Thanks Jason.

Looking to do the same thing (include content from another page) into a tab.

Don’t see the Tabs element External page? Tried this, but it does not work

[tab_2]
id=”306″
[/tab_2]

Hello,

Apologies, but the theme or shortcodes plugin doesn’t come with any way to include content from an external page. This will not be possible within the [tabs] shortcode. The only way would be to do this from the “Tabs” element of a custom layout built in the Builder.

And for future reference, if you’d like to post code into the forum here, you can post it within <pre> tags so it displays.
