CSV Exporting giving ‘ERR_INVALID_RESPONSE’

    Hi,

    This plugin is great and works much nicer than the others around. However a client wants to export to CSV and keeps getting this error:

    This site can’t be reached

The web page at http://website.co.uk/wp-admin/edit.php?s&post_status=all&post_type=wpcf7s&action=-1&m=0&wpcf7_contact_form=0&wpcf7s-export=1&paged=1&action2=-1 might be temporarily down or it may have moved permanently to a new web address.
ERR_INVALID_RESPONSE

    (I’ve removed the url of the website for privacy protection)

    This error appears after every try, no matter what filters I use or anything I do. I’ve upped the server memory, tried removing plugins that could clash but still the same error.

    Anyone else had this problem? Or know what it could be?

    Cheers,

    Danny

    To add more information here:

    I am using Multisite.

    I also have CF7 Conditional Fields and CF7 Repeater installed.

    After more digging, I discovered several gaping flaws with the CSV export feature:

    • CSV export is not compatible with multisite installations.
    • It has a horrendous way of storing data in the database, injecting it into the wp_posts table rather than simply creating a new table and allowing for easy exports. Why has it been developed like this?! So so bad.
    • It is not compatible wih cf7 repeater fields

    When I finally switched multisite off temporarily, I could export the CSV file, however because of plugin conflicts with cf7 repeater, NONE of the repeater fields were showing up.

    We have over 400 applications that we need to export to a CSV file for legal purposes. This plugin seemed to be the only one that rendered fields correctly on the backend of the site.

    Our approach using this pick n mix of plugins was admittedly a temporary, quick solution to give us the functionality we needed until our new system is built. However, considering I’ve not even received a response of any kind from the author regarding this issue is kinda crap.

    Fix your database structure, stop throwing things together and you could have a very good plugin. But for now, I have to uninstall and manually go through over 400 applications to fix it.
