Prefix plot filenames with figure number in knitr/ #QuartoPub

```
knitr::opts_hooks$set(label = function(options) {
this_label <- knitr::opts_current$get("label")
if (!startsWith(this_label, "fig")) {
return(options)
}

all_chunks <- knitr::all_labels(startsWith(label, "fig"))
fig_num <- which(all_chunks == this_label)
n <- formatC(fig_num, width = 3, flag = "0")
new_path <- paste0(options$fig.path, n, "_")

options$fig.path <- new_path
return(options)
})
```

Back on a train this morning, this time on my way to Osnabrück to give a workshop on literate programming and #Quarto at the STaPs conference (Sprachwissenschaftliche Tagung für Promotionsstudierende) tomorrow afternoon. If you're in or close to Osnabrück and want to join last minute, get in touch with me, I'm sure we can make that possible! https://staps.stuts.eu/

Seriously, how would one submit the LaTex output of creating a manuscript that uses a #QuartoPub theme / extra format for a journal?

Is everything except figures now included in the "*.tex file", and anyone else should be able to "compile" it without using `quarto`?

I've never done a LaTex journal submission before ....

We are submitting an article to MDPI Metabolites (yes, I'm aware of the general opinion of MDPI as a likely predatory publisher, I can't persuade my PI otherwise, so that's where it's going).

I'm reaching the limits of Rmd or qmd -> Word, so I'm considering using the #QuartoPub template by @thias_mittner.

Has anyone else successfully used this template for an actual journal submission to an MDPI journal?

TIA.

Hi #econtwitter #rstats,

Looking for great blog posts or talks on reproducible workflows w/ #QuartoPub in R/Python.
Also, examples of high-profile irreproducibility blunders 😉. I'm interested in literate programming, version control w/ Git/GitHub, & dep management with uv & renv. Any suggestions?

Help! I'm trying to write a blog post but I've fallen into the customizing-my-quarto-blog quicksand! The more I struggle to get out the deeper I sink! I've written more CSS for this R blog post than R!
