Feature request: shortcode "disabled"

Hi,

thanks for your question, and sorry for the trouble.

I don’t really think that this is something that should go into the main plugin, as only very few people will ever need it. Instead, this can achieved with just a little bit of custom code, that is added either to the “functions.php” of the theme or a small new plugin file:

add_filter( 'tablepress_table_not_found_message', 'tablepress_prevent_table_not_found_message_for_disabled_tables', 10, 2 );
function tablepress_prevent_table_not_found_message_for_disabled_tables( $message, $table_id ) {
	if ( empty( $table_id ) ) {
		$message = '';
	}
	return $message;
}

After that, you could change the Shortcode from

[table id=123 /]

to

[table disabled_id=123 /]

to hide it.

Tobias

Thanks, just tried and worked!

I’m still not 100% convinced that it’s a feature that shouldn’t go into the core but you surely know it better than me ??

Hi,

no problem, you are very welcome! ?? Good to hear that this helped!

This is the first request about a feature like this that I remember, so there’s definitely not much interest from the majority of users ??

Best wishes,
Tobias
