Insert a table in Weebly
Weebly doesn¡¯t allow users to create tables directly in it. You can use Microsoft Word to create a table first, then
embed the table into your Weebly site. Note that you cannot edit your table in Weebly. Every time you want to make
some changes, you need to do it in Word and embed the table again.
Here are the specific steps:
1. Open your Microsoft Word and insert a table.
2. Go to File->Save As->Choose ¡°Single File Web Page (*.mht; *mhtml)¡± to save your table.
3. Open the Word document you just created (notice it is saved as a webpage file). You will see it opens in your
web browser.
4. Select the table in your
webpage. Then go to View>Source in Internet
Explorer (Tools->Web
Developer->Page Source
in Firefox). You will see a
text file with html code
opens.
Text file window
5. In the text file window, go to
Edit->Select All, then press
Ctrl+C in your keyboard to
copy all the code.
6. Go to your Weebly webpage,
drag the ¡°Custom HTML¡±
website builder into your
webpage. Then paste (press
Ctrl+V on your keyboard) the
code into the editing area.
7. Click on any place outside of
the editing area, you should be
able to see the table you just
created.
Create a calendar in Weebly
Since the calendar function is not available in Weebly, you can create your calendar first in Google Calendar and then
embed the calendar into your Weebly website.
Google Calendar is easy and also free. You can manage your calendar in Google and changes will automatically show
up in your site created by Weebly.
To get started, you need to have a Google account.

window).
You will see a new calendar ready
for you when you open up Google
calendar.
To add events, click on the date of
the event, and you will see the
picture on the left.
Enter your event description
into the blank box, then click
"Create event". You can edit
detailed information of your
event by clicking into "Edit
event". You can choose a
color you like for your
calendar, so you events will
show up as this color on the
calendar.
After you have everything set up on your calendar, you can
add the calendar to your site with the following steps.
In the ¡°My calendars¡± list on the left, point your mouse to
the calendar you want to add to the website (there might
be more than one calendars), then click on the down-arrow
that shows on the right. Choose "Calendar settings".
Go to the "Share this calendar" tab, and
check the "make this calendar public" box.
Don't forget to save your changes.
Go to the "Calendar details"
tab and see the "Embed this
calendar" section.

code to embed the calendar into
your site.

builder

editing area.

editing area (where shows ¡°click here
