This is probably known but I didn't see any threads with a quick search. I have found that adding a table to a post, and then later editing it, will show the bb code in the editor mode, regardless of whether you have bb code toggled on or off.

(this came up when trying to edit my thread)

Given this a go (tried to edit your thread and messed with one of my own) and can confirm it does happen to me as well.

Toggling the BB code in the editor doesn't make it render as a table or anything, which would make trying to edit it later pretty difficult.

If it helps the staff looking at this it appears others have had this as an issue in the past and it shouldn't be a XenForo issue:

For now if you want to manage your tables a little easier, it might be worth keeping them in a separate spreadsheet or something and using an online tool to convert them to BBCode when you want to add them to your thread? Not ideal but easier than wading through the text as-is.

    truth be told, i agree with psi, i dislike both candidates, but i'd probably vote trump simply because the economy was better during his presidency

    Just be careful, if trump ends up winning and using project 2025 America might really change...for the worse.
