I tried it and you can manually put in table/row/headings/definition tags into a post, but that's a tough row to hoe!
Is there an easy way to get a table into a post on Unseen Servant?
I thought, maybe the ss= tag, but YIKES, that just embeds the whole sheet, menus and all, not just a block of cells. Really over kill for simple tables.
OTOH, I might be able to use the ss= tag to handle character sheets for my Traveller game. Is that the way other GM's are handling non-D&D character sheets?

That is how toolychris did his non D&D game sheets.

Here's a little tool that makes BBCODE tables a little easier

Yep, that will do it! Thanks.ToniXX wrote:Here's a little tool that makes BBCODE tables a little easier

And I figured out that if you Publish to web, instead of share I can get the ss= to do what I wanted, too.
Now, what about that sheet tab? I think it has to do with putting CSS into a post but there are no directions anywhere that I can find. Is there documentation somewhere?

No, no! Different subject, really, but it occurred to me while I was replying to this one.ToniXX wrote:What are you referring to here?

Between ooc and spoiler on the button bar there is a button for sheet. The Tip says "Styles can be applied quickly to selected text."
Code: Select all
[sheet][/sheet]
I was wondering if you can embed an inline style in there or something to do formatting and functions that bbcode doesn't allow? Things like: change font, change text alignment, super and subscripts, hr, h1, etc.
What does it do and how do you use it?

Re: Tables and Google Sheets
The sheet tag allows you to embed a read-only version of a character sheet into the Unseen Servant forums. Use it like this, but use square brackets instead of curly ones: {sheet}pcid{/sheet}, where 'pcid' is the number of your character sheet. If you use the sheet system at the roller, it shows you this number for each PC

Oh of course! Slaps self upside the head! Once you explain it, it makes perfect sense.ToniXX wrote:The sheet tag allows you to embed a read-only version of a character sheet into the Unseen Servant forums.

The Character Sheet is a cool idea and seems well implemented here, but won't help me with my Traveller game. If I ever get around to running a fantasy game, though, I'll jump all over it.
Thanks for explaining.
