# Table-List Corrupt

 * I have deleted a table (#7) and created a new one. The new table got ID 8. There
   is no table #7 in the list now. Currently the list of tables uses these IDs: 
   1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 8
 * Therefore it is impossible to add the shortcode [table id=8 /] into a page. In
   WP-editor I keep getting the WP-message (German) “Fehler beim Laden des Blocks:
   object Object” (translates to something like “error loading block: object Object”).
   It is impossible to publish a page with this shortcode.
 * (All other tables and their shortcodes work just fine.)
 * How can I fix the table list?

 * Hi [@ulibaehr](https://wordpress.org/support/users/ulibaehr/),
 * Thanks for your post and sorry for the trouble!
 * It’s no problem that there is no table with the ID 7 here, the list does not 
   have to be complete. In fact, this is very common, if tables are deleted. (TablePress
   does not re-use table IDs, because this could lead to tables being shown in places
   where they should not be shown, e.g. if an “old” Shortcode is still in a page
   somewhere.)
 * Therefore, the issue that you are seeing must have a different cause. Somehow,
   an error message is being generated when the table content is rendered. Can you
   please check if you are also getting an error when trying to use the “Preview”
   feature on the “List of tables” or on the “Edit” screen of the table? And is 
   the “Edit” screen for this table working fine?
 * Depending on what you find, please get in touch via the yellow “Send us an email”
   button in the lower part of [https://tablepress.org/pricing/](https://tablepress.org/pricing/)
   with any details. Thanks!
 * Best wishes,
   Tobias
