I found out that a table with a "title" that rendered correctly in MarkDown during editing in the preview doesn't render correctly during rendering once posted.

Title This | is ----|----- a | table

Renders correctly during the preview:

but not after posting.

  • Nuts, tried to look it up, followed the dupe list while editing and still missed those. Then again, kudos again to SE to entirely ignore this issue without any explanation. I've made a request on GitHub to clear this up as the GitHub Flavored Markdown is not in a github repo itself so I cannot submit a bug report - sigh. Commented Apr 8 at 12:45

MarkDown rules do not say anything about required empty lines before tables are defined. However, it seems that the renderer for posts does require one, while the one used during the preview (correctly) does not:

So just adding an additional newline after the title makes it render again. This is a workaround, not a bug fix though.

This is
a table
