[Plugin: WP-Table Reloaded] WP-Table-Reloaded integration with LaTex content

Hi,

thanks for your question. The reason why this does not work out of the box is that WP-QuickLaTeX does not use the regular WordPress Shortcode API, but a custom implementation.
Making it work with WP-Table Reloaded is not too difficult though, and just requires a minor piece of code. Please try adding

add_filter( 'wp_table_reloaded_post_output_table', 'quicklatex_parser', 7);

to the “functions.php” of your theme.

I just did as you instructed, but it did not work. ??
I added it to the end of the file functions.php
I switched to the begin and surrounded with <?php and ?> and nothing happened.

Should I update anything on the source of the plugin WT-Table Reloaded?

Hi,

no, nothing needs to be changed within WP-Table Reloaded.

Please try again with

add_filter( 'wp_table_reloaded_cell_content', 'quicklatex_parser', 7);

which tries to hook into a different filter hook.

If that also does not work, please post the URL to the page with your table where the LaTeX is not working.

Tobias

It also did not work

Here it is the URL with the table – https://www.uvirundum.com/2012/05/test/

Hi,

ok, thanks for the URL.

Does the LaTeX code work outside of the table, in the regular post content?

Also, I don’t see a Shortcode [latex] wrapped around the code. I thought that this was necessary?!

Regards,
Tobias

yes, it does.

The shortcode is [latexpage], as you can see in other posts. It is the first line of each page.

The post source is just that
[latexpage]
[table id=”11″]

Hi,

thanks for that explanation. This explains why the LaTeX code is not parsed. The reason is that WP-QuickLaTeX executes the parsing before the table is actually processed. They do this by using a very high priority during the filter hook usage. I’m not really sure why they do it this way, but just as with WP-Table Reloaded, no other Shortcodes will by able to deliver LaTeX code with this

Now, I saw that the plugin also supports another Shortcode:

[latex] ... [/latex]

wrapped around each equation.
Although this is a little bit more work for you, it should work, together with the code from my second post above.

Regards,
Tobias

Yes, it worked.

Thanks a lot, Tobias. ??

Hi,

awesome, very cool! ?? Thanks a lot for the confirmation!

Best wishes,
Tobias
