Adding images to tables in WordPress

“Image” link columns are used to render images in the table, either in full size, or as a link from a thumbnail to a full size image.

• Rendering rules: If the content of the cells contains a combination of “two sticks” – || – everything to the left of this combination is used as a link to the thumbnail, and everything to the right as a link to the full image size:
  
  http://domain.com/thumb.png||http://domain.com/fullsize.png
  If the “||” combination is not found in the content, the entire content will be used as a link to a full-size image.
• Sorting rules: alphabetical.
• Applicable filter types: text.
• Editor input type: One-line edit, Attachment
• Issues to note:
  • Sometimes some issues may appear when you’re sorting on image columns, since it’s done alphabetically, and alphabetic sorting of HTML typically doesn’t make sense.
  • Please note that the plugin does not create thumbnails (at least for the moment), so you will need to take care of this yourself.
  • If you would like to open full-size images in lightbox, you can use a plugin for that, e.g. WP Lightbox 2  (please note that this is available for tables that aren’t editable)

See the “Photo” column in this table.
