contentful-tables's Issues

I cannot edit the table

I installed the extension but I cannot edit the table. When I add an entry with my content model, all I get is a blank space for my JSON object. Did I miss something here?

Is it possible to merge cells or border lines?

I tried to use JSON object to create a custom table, but I realized that the object data is automatically sorted so that I was not able to use JSON object type.

I am still looking for a way to create a custom table with the features to merge cells or border line.

Adding title to contenful-tables

Hey, first of all thanks, cool extension. Is there any possibility to add a title to table content object? right now they are all saved as undefined with no option to change somehow.

Double Quotes

When trying to escape double quotes using /", for some reason, after saving the quotes get removed. I dont see any reg ex or any parsing in the app, and cannot figure out why?!

If i set the object field to default, and add the escape in the json blurb then save, the quote stays, but then after switching back to using this extension and saving we lose it again. Any ideas?

Embeding table in rich text editor
