Template talk:Convertbs

Couldn't get it to work
Thanks for creating this template, but I couldn't get it to work on the Kalka–Shimla railway route map; however, using the   markup at Routemap worked. All the best,  Mini  apolis  17:41, 14 March 2018 (UTC)
 * Did you save the page before copying the diagram text out of the page preview? This template should function identically to the longer code in the Routemap documentation; I created this primarily because I didn't like copying and pasting the conversion code.

 * That awful diff happened because I didn't fully understand the instructions at Template:Routemap/doc at the time. Unfortunately, I don't remember why Convertbs didn't seem to work; I tried it first, as the simpler option. If you know of any old tables which still need conversion, I can try it again in my sandbox. All the best,  Mini  apolis  14:10, 23 March 2018 (UTC)
 * Oh, it's probably because you replaced the table code at the start and end with this template's code. I'll add a note about that to the documentation pages. Jc86035 (talk) 14:45, 23 March 2018 (UTC)
 * It turns out it didn't work with BS-table. It should work now. Jc86035 (talk) 14:58, 23 March 2018 (UTC)
 * Thanks a lot; that was probably the problem, and I don't understand template code well enough to have figured it out. All the best,  Mini  apolis  15:05, 23 March 2018 (UTC)
