  I would like to insert a simple table into my blog and will probably do this a few times – for comparing measurements, etc. I’ve tried searching the help topics but don’t see a straight forward way to do this. I’m new to wordpress and blogging so can’t write code or understand it – is there a simple answer? I don’t see this option when I try to customise my template or edit the page.

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  To display a table of data, you will have to use HTML code to create it, as there is no feature of WordPress.com that helps to create them. You can learn more about creating a table with HTML at the following link:

  Be sure that you are using the Text editor, rather than the Visual editor, otherwise the viewer will see the actual code, and not the table you wish to display.
