Plotly scraper not working with sphinx-gallery #4722

Description

@astroDimitrios

This has been reported on a sphinx-gallery issue but I don't think it has here.

The plotly scraper is not generating thumbnails for sphinx-gallery to use. The sphinx-gallery plotly example specifies a custom png image to use as the thumbnail so it's not working there either.

    @LiamConnors would this one be yours?

    @gvwilson I don't think so. It doesn't sound like it's related to our docs, but rather to one of the Plotly.py renderers

    just checking in on this -- has there been any progress? I ran into the same issue as the original issue report on sphinx-gallery

    It looks like someone created a PR to address this issue. Once that's ready for review, we'll take a look.

    Yes I've been testing out precisely that PR, and have posted there. :)
