 * Hi,
 * I tried to rebuild the Connected cells demo table on [https://tablepress.org/demo/](https://tablepress.org/demo/)
   but I failed.
    Is there any chance to import the correct code and is it also 
   possible to take any other code from another website to import the structure 
   of the table?
 * Thanks a lot for your help in advance!

 * Hi,
 * thanks for your post, and sorry for the trouble.
 * I’m not sure that I understand. What exactly did you try and how did it fail?
   
   Did you use the “colspan” and “rowspan” buttons below the table input fields 
   to insert the `#colspan#` and `#rowspan#` keywords that ultimately connect the
   cells, as explained a bit more in the help text that is shown when using the “?”
   button?

 * Hi Tobias,
 * I tried to exactly build the “Connected Cells Demo Table” on [https://tablepress.org/demo/](https://tablepress.org/demo/),
   but I dont know how to do that. A “usual” table is easy, but I don’t know how
   to build the connected tables.
 * That’s why I thought that there is maybe a possibility to import the Table that
   you created with the help of the “Import a Table” functionality in the plugin?

 * Hi Jonathan,
 * that table has been built using the above mentioned mechanism, of using the “
   colspan” and “rowspan” buttons below the table input fields, to insert the `#
   colspan#` and `#rowspan#` keywords into the cells. Please try using those after
   consulting the description again that is shown when clicking the “?” button next
   to these buttons.
 * Importing that table is possible, by choosing the “Direct input” method for the
   import then pasting this into the text area:
 *     ```
       Name;ID;URL;Points;Rank
       Aaä;1;example.com/z;3;1
       Bbü;#colspan#;#rowspan#;1;4
       Ccö;3;#rowspan#;2;#rowspan#
       Ddß;#colspan#;#rowspan#;4;3
       #rowspan#;#rowspan#;;10;4
       ```
   
 * I’m not sure that will help though, as it also will only contain those `#colspan#`
   and `#rowspan#` keywords that indicate that cells should be combined.
 * Regards,
    Tobias
