Hardcoded Image Urls

Hi,

thanks for your post, and sorry for the trouble.

I don’t really think that this will be possible. TablePress is not making any assumptions about the content that someone puts into a table cell, i.e. it doesn’t actually know if there’s HTML or an image in a cell. It treats image HTML in the same way as WordPress does it in posts or pages, after they have been inserted.
I do however have plans for a “Search and Replace” Extension which should make it easier in the future to e.g. search/replace URLs in tables.

if someone also likes clean id references, here we go. ??
you can add an image with the known shortcode sheme:

[image id="2167"]

then add to your theme controller (e.g. functions.php):

add_filter('tablepress_cell_content', 'tablepress_update_image_ids', 10, 4);

function tablepress_update_image_ids( $cell_content, $tableID, $row_idx, $col_idx ) {

	return preg_replace_callback('/\[image id=\"(.*?)".*\]/', '__tablepress_set_image_attachment', $cell_content);

}

function __tablepress_set_image_attachment( $matches ) {

	$attachmentID = (int) $matches[1];
	$image = wp_get_attachment_image( $attachmentID, 'thumbnail');

	if( empty( $image ) )
		return FALSE;

	return $image;

}

Hi,

that’s a nice solution, indeed! Thanks for sharing it!

If you use the WordPress Shortcode API, you could make this a little bit more robust, and it would also work in regular posts and pages:

add_shortcode( 'image', 'mayrrecordscan_image_shortcode' );
function mayrrecordscan_image_shortcode( $atts ) {
  $attachmentID = (int) $atts['id'];
  $image = wp_get_attachment_image( $attachmentID, 'thumbnail' );
  if ( empty( $image ) ) {
    return '';
  }
  return $image;
}
