Title: [Plugin: CSV 2 POST] Error during Setup after Pressing the "Activate" Button Last modified: August 20, 2016 --- # [Plugin: CSV 2 POST] Error during Setup after Pressing the "Activate" Button * Resolved [Kai_Schuerrer](https://wordpress.org/support/users/kai_schuerrer/) * (@kai_schuerrer) * [13 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-csv-2-post-error-during-setup-after-pressing-the-activate-button/) * Hi! * I would like to test out your plugin and so I try to install it. Downloaded the current version 6.6.3 from the wordpress plugin repository. After activating the plugin the new menue item CSV 2 POST Install is displayed. * I go to that menue item and got the screen “Activation controls” * There I hit the button “Activate” and a popup is displayed. * I press “submit” on it. * Now I got a screen with 3 green lines: * Installed option record called csv2post_adminset Installed option record called csv2post_publicset Installed option record called csv2post_tabmenu * Below this comes the error: * Fatal error: Call to undefined function csv2post_createfolder() in /kunden/73538_60386/ schiener/wp-content/plugins/csv-2-post/templatesystem/include/csv2post_admin_functions. php on line 379 * And install stops 🙁 * Any hint or help for that issue? * Best regards, Kai * [http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/csv-2-post/](http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/csv-2-post/) Viewing 7 replies - 1 through 7 (of 7 total) * [Zara Walsh](https://wordpress.org/support/users/zara-walsh/) * (@zara-walsh) * [13 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-csv-2-post-error-during-setup-after-pressing-the-activate-button/#post-3021710) * Hi * Thank you for trying CSV 2 POST. * csv2post_createfolder() is used to create a folder named “wpcsvimportercontent” in the wp-content directory. So this is done on every installation. * Not sure why this error has only happened now. I’m considering a missing file or another error earlier too the one your showing, which stops a function file being loaded. So look out for that. * We are working on the plugin right now. New version will be released tonight with a key fix, it might even solve your problem. * Anymore information is very welcome Kai. If you can confirm that the problem goes away on the next version here, I can set this thread as resolved so that would be appreciated. * Thread Starter [Kai_Schuerrer](https://wordpress.org/support/users/kai_schuerrer/) * (@kai_schuerrer) * [13 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-csv-2-post-error-during-setup-after-pressing-the-activate-button/#post-3021726) * Hi Zara, * thanks for your answer. * I try it on another installation of wordpress on a different server, but got the same error. * Too bad. * Is there a logfile or a chance to activate a debug log? * I tried to generate the “wpcsvimportercontent” by hand, but install stops at the same point. Function is missing. * The three lines * Installed option record called csv2post_adminset Installed option record called csv2post_publicset Installed option record called csv2post_tabmenu * are labeled in green, so I think theres no error at this point. * I tried to installed an older version, but it´s still the same error. * Strange behaviour. My WordPress installation runs without any error, so I think my hoster supports all needed features – or is there a special feature or php setting needed (like register globals or something else)? * I´ll give your new version a try tomorrow! * Best regards and thanks for support * Kai * [Zara Walsh](https://wordpress.org/support/users/zara-walsh/) * (@zara-walsh) * [13 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-csv-2-post-error-during-setup-after-pressing-the-activate-button/#post-3021727) * These was a missing function. We don’t understand why it never came up before now. * There is a function called csv2post_form_createfolder(), which does the same thing so we will use that. I will release a new version tonight. * Thanks a lot * Thread Starter [Kai_Schuerrer](https://wordpress.org/support/users/kai_schuerrer/) * (@kai_schuerrer) * [13 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-csv-2-post-error-during-setup-after-pressing-the-activate-button/#post-3021746) * Hello Zara, * thakns for your support. * I uninstall the old version and installed the new version. * The new version has not the Install menue again so it seems the old install was almost finished. * But if I try to import csv file a dir was missing. I made this dir and now everything works fine. * Thanks. * But I think I have the next issue 😉 * Will check it out and come back. * Best regards, Kai * Plugin Author [WebTechGlobal](https://wordpress.org/support/users/webtechglobal/) * (@webtechglobal) * [13 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-csv-2-post-error-during-setup-after-pressing-the-activate-button/#post-3021769) * If I understand things correctly. * The “wpcsvimportercontent” folder will be missing because the installation was done with the faulty plugin. Everything else will have been installed, data wise. * So yes when the new plugin files were put into action all that would be left is that folder. It should be created on un-install then re-install. * Thanks. Hope your enjoying the plugin. There is still a couple of issues, well there was. The next version coming later today will fix them. * Thread Starter [Kai_Schuerrer](https://wordpress.org/support/users/kai_schuerrer/) * (@kai_schuerrer) * [13 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-csv-2-post-error-during-setup-after-pressing-the-activate-button/#post-3021772) * I enjoy the plugin very much. * Feels a bit like Beta-Testing, but that´s ok. No other plugin has this rich set of functions. * Plugin Author [WebTechGlobal](https://wordpress.org/support/users/webtechglobal/) * (@webtechglobal) * [13 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-csv-2-post-error-during-setup-after-pressing-the-activate-button/#post-3021776) * Great glad we have another positive user, exactly what we need. * It feels like a beta for us also which is a shame. It’s my fault, I spent longer perfecting our approach than I meant to and we are about 1 month behind right now. * I just uploaded another version with key fixes, another step closer to shaking that beta feeling off.
