Repository metrics are context, not quality scores. Active installations measure adoption and can strongly reflect a plugin’s age and historical popularity. Ratings, recent updates and “Tested up to” metadata also do not guarantee modern code, error-free operation, security, feature completeness or suitability for a particular site.

WP PlugIndex currently records 16Deza Table Cell Extras version 1.4.2 as active, updated 2mo ago and tested up to WordPress 7.1.
Overview
About this plugin
Table Cell Extras extends the formatting of standard table blocks. It allows for extended inline decoration, td/th conversion of the first column, and customizable cell background colors. Additionally, extended inline formatting can optionally be enabled outside of table blocks.
Features:
First-column td/th conversion — Converts first-column cells from <td> to <th>
Transpose table — Swap rows and columns with just one click
Cell merge / split — Merge adjacent cells (colspan/rowspan) or split merged cells back to individual cells
Cell border — Set borders per row, per column, or per individual cell
Cell background color — Set a background color per row, per column, or per cell
Cell alignment — Adjust vertical alignment (Top / Middle / Bottom) and horizontal alignment (Left / Center / Right) per row, per column, or per cell
Cell minimum width — Set a minimum cell width with a slider (3–20em)
Font size — Adjust font size with a slider (0.75–2.0em)
Line height — Adjust line height with a slider (0.75–2.0, unitless)
Row spacing — Add top and/or bottom margin with a combined slider panel (0–2.0em)
Inline block — Apply display: inline-block to selected text
Pseudo ordered/unordered list — Convert selected lines to numbered or bullet-point style (span-based)
Horizontal rule — Insert a horizontal divider at the cursor position
Why “pseudo” lists?
Gutenberg’s RichText sanitizes block-level elements such as <ul>, <ol>, and <li> inside table cells. This plugin uses <span> elements with CSS to achieve the same visual result while remaining fully compatible with Gutenberg.
Notes
This plugin does not register any custom blocks; it extends the existing core/table block.
No external requests are made.
Lightweight — a single JS file and a single CSS file.
