Need Blizzard forum official markdown guide

I’ve tried following this one but doesn’t seem to work, especially tables. I’ve literally copy-pasted its table example but it doesn’t work:

Event title| Starting time | DM
--- | --- | ---
*Group meditation* | `16:00` | **Sindaru**
*Chi and You - How to tap into your inner self* | `09:00` | **Shuang**
*Pandaren cooking recipes for beginners* | `12:00` | **Fenlian**

:point_down:                                   :point_down:                                   :point_down:                                   :point_down:

Event title Starting time DM
Group meditation 16:00 Sindaru
Chi and You - How to tap into your inner self 09:00 Shuang
Pandaren cooking recipes for beginners 12:00 Fenlian

Hmmm… seems to work…


There are many of those guides all over the place… here a few — enjoy !!     :slight_smile:

Those that I know from Diablo III

and

A few from World of Warcraft
A few others

(I suspect many are similar… if not identical)

Can you tell me what I did wrong here?

Your title line has 5 columns… but your 2nd line only has 4. I guess that confused Discourse. I also replaced the dash character you used in the 2nd line by “-”. Everything fell into place after I did that. Here are the first 10 lines.

 Run # | Drop 1 | Drop 2 | Drop 3 | Drop 4 
---|---|---|---|---
 1 | Dol |  | |
 2 | Tal | | |
3 | Ral | | |
4 | Ral | | |
5 | Tir | | |
6 | Ral | | |
7 | Sol | Tir | |
8 | Tir | El | |
9 | Hel | Amn | |
10 | El | Thul | |

which translates to:

Run # Drop 1 Drop 2 Drop 3 Drop 4
1 Dol
2 Tal
3 Ral
4 Ral
5 Tir
6 Ral
7 Sol Tir
8 Tir El
9 Hel Amn
10 El Thul

Good luck with this…

================================================================================

Hmmm… that’s odd… on the 2nd line, it looks as if I’ve used a / but I didn’t… it’s a |

I think your / for | and my — for — are automatic replacements. I literally copy pasted the example and replaced the words, I did not typed —.

Thanks.

You’re very welcome… did you get the list of 121 items to come out as you wanted it ?

Yes, removing the extra column and fixing the - - - helped.
