excluding Tablepress from rss feed

    Hi Tobias,

    Not a bug or extension request, just a question (and perhaps more rss-specific than Tablepress).

    My data tables are usually several hundred/thousand rows. They make my rss feed unusable (it becomes too big) even with just 5 articles in the feed.

    Have you ever heard of anyone successfully excluding Tablepress tables from their rss feed?

    Thanks,
    Nathan

    Hi Nathan,

    thanks for your question, and sorry for the trouble.

    Just for clarification, are you seeing the internal TablePress data in the RSS feed, or are you referring to posts/pages that contain a large table (via the Shortcode)?
    In the first case, there’d clearly be a problem here, but I think that you mean the latter case. Then, we could maybe turn off the Shortcode parsing in the RSS feed, or we could hide all rows, except maybe the first 5 in the feed. For that, you could e.g. use this PHP code in your theme’s “functions.php”:

    add_filter( 'tablepress_table_render_options', 'ncurrier_hide_rows_in_feeds', 10, 2 );
function ncurrier_hide_rows_in_feeds( $render_options, $table ) {
  if ( is_feed() ) {
   $render_options['hide_rows'] = 'all';
   $render_options['show_rows'] = '1,2,3,4,5';
  }
  return $render_options;
}

    Regards,
    Tobias

    That’s done it. Excellent. Many thanks.

    Hopefully others find this useful as well if they have large data tables like mine.
