When I try to make a table instead of getting the grid like I use to I am now getting the BB code. This happens in both IE11 and Chrome. Anyone else having this problem?
 
What do you mean "try to make a table?" what method are you using?
If you are trying to copy/paste from Excel, that method has been disabled because a bug was causing extra "junk" to be posted to the threads.

Excel Jeanie and other tools still work.
 
Even if I click the table button on the reply to topic screen it shows the code instead of the table for me to type into.

Tracy, was that done by removing the WYSIWYG option from the Message Editor Interface section of the user profile area? (I've only just noticed that it is no longer there.)

Peter - yes
Scott - were you trying to do a copy/paste from Excel?
 
If I copy and past from Excel I only get the texted.

If I click on the table button I get the code and have to go to each [ td ][ /td ] and type. I just noticed that the table properties, delete table, add rows/columns buttons are not usable.

[table="width: 500, class: grid"]
[tr]
[td]type data here[/td]
[td][/td]
[/tr]
[tr]
[td][/td]
[td][/td]
[/tr]
[tr]
[td][/td]
[td][/td]
[/tr]
[/table]

Thanks for getting back to me Scott. Seems our fix for one issue that's popped up ended up disabling other tools. We're working on a better fix.
