<th> tags are missing
I tried parsing the table below copied from Wiktionary (https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/by%C4%87) via the Plunker Template.
The preview looked correct but once I hit the Convert! button, the alert window displayed only [].
<table class="wikitable inflection-table" style="margin: 1em auto;">

Looks fine to me:

The template does this:
var table = $('#students').tableToJSON();
alert(JSON.stringify(table));
which means - it only converts tables with the ID of students. Put an ID on your table element and try again.
Thanks.
It does parse now, that is into this:

So there are lots of empty keys (where <th> tags are parsed) and some of the <th>s are lost altogether (e.g. present indicative, past indicative, etc.). Am I still missing something?
Cheers!
I just looked at the HTML more closely @onsa - I don't think this tool can work with this type of table. There are way too many <th> spread throughout the table within different rows for it to work with this tool.
