Unable to insert image in table cell

    I’m unable to insert images into Tablepress cells anymore. After clicking on “Insert Image,” I click in the cell I want the image placed and I get taken to the media page of WordPress where I see my image. I click on that image and the little blue checkmark appears. I then click on “Insert into table” and we go back to the table. However, the cell I clicked in is still blank except for the little bit of text I had there to accompany the image.

    I click “save changes” anyway, but nothing shows up on the live site. Here’s the resulting page:

    The last two rows have no image in the left-most cell. The other images (notes on a musical staff) were ones I inserted last year. The last two rows are new and I am trying to add corresponding images to them.

    Hi,

    thanks for your post, and sorry for the trouble.

    I’m not exactly sure why this is not working. My assumption is that some other plugin is maybe interfering, by inserting custom JavaScript code into the TablePress screens. That might disturb the image insertion process.
    Could you therefore maybe try again after temporarily deactivating all plugins except TablePress and after switching to a WordPress default theme like TwentyFifteen?

    A temporary workaround (as you only want to insert two images at the moment) would be to just copy the image HTML code from one of the other cells into the two new cells and then simply adjust the image URL manually.

    Regards,
    Tobias

    Hi,

    that means that your theme is somehow integrating into the Media Library on TablePress admin screens. That’s a bad idea and something that will have to be fixed in the theme. There’s nothing that I can do about this in TablePress, sorry. You will have to contact the support team of your theme.

    Is there a way to place an image and then have it enlarge on click please?

    Hi,

    thanks for your question, and sorry for the trouble.

    Sorry, something like this can not be done directly by TablePress (it’s a table plugin after all, and not a gallery plugin). You’d therefore have to look for an image handling plugin that can maybe add a lightbox or thickbox effect to images.

    scoc,
    search for wp-lightbox-2 plugin, i think it will work fine also inside the table.
