  • Well, happy day!

    I went through another exercise of starting with a fresh install and testing plugins. I found my conflict with NextGEN photo gallery. I was a few updates behind on that specifically because I was hesitant.

    There is something that NextGEN loads in the admin causing conflict. Upgrading that plugin alone did not fix it for me. I also have NextGEN Gallery Optimizer installed which has an option to optimize the admin area. That also needed to be updated.

    Having the most recent updates to both of those seems to solve my problem.

    This may be specific to my issue. Not sure if this will fix others. Interesting that whatever it is loading only effected IE, at least for me.

    xnau,

    • I did multiple tests and was watching the console. No errors at all.
    • I did a clean install, reloaded an older backup.
    • I turned off all plug ins one by one and tested after each.
    • I changed themes

    None of these changed anything, nor did they give me any real leads on what to try next. I’m at a loss.

    For what it is worth, I do notice that it does work more often then not if I quickly click on the download button right after the page loads. If I wait another second, then it usually does not work. Makes me think that something in the loading sequence does something.

    Well, it was right to leave this open. It seems to work as expected from Firefox, Chrome and Safari for me. IE is the problem child. I’m receiving no PHP errors in the log. What else can I troubleshoot and provide?

    no worries xnau. Thanks for the response! Keep up the great work.

    Thanks xnau,

    My purpose is for an internal intranet that is housing our corporate marketing mailing contact database. So I’m using this all in the admin section with employees who are logged in. No need to mess with front end lists and forms.

    For example, I would add a vendor to the list of corporate contacts. I am the “Owner” of the contact, i.e. the “Author of the post” So it works the exact same way as the Author select drop down works on a post.

    I can simply add a hard coded dropdown list with pre-populated names, but if it is possible to hook into the Post Author drop down, that would be ideal when I could have 50 different folks who own contacts.

    FYI, the change above has seemed to do the trick for me as both an admin and as an editor, which is the lowest role I am allowing exports.

    xnau, please check this possibility:

    I have gotten a few exports to spit out the data sporadically when logged in as an admin. I’m only a novice and know enough to be dangerous, but I changed some enclosing double quotes to single quotes in participants-datapase.php dealing with the header on line 2383:

    old:
    header("Cache-Control: no-store, no-cache");

    new:
    header('Cache-Control: no-store, no-cache');

    something to do with caching?

    Ah, forgot to turn debug on! I did get one line of PHP error after a failed export attempt:

    PDb_List_Admin::initialize list query= SELECT * FROM wp_ehgt_participants_database p ORDER BY p.last_name asc

    If it helps narrow things down, I did test an import and that worked correctly. And I did it a couple times to both add new and update records. I then again tested an export and it still does not work. I will keep testing.

    Hey xnau,

    I set up the error log with the plugin you suggested, but don’t receive any PHP errors after doing the export. I’ve got quite a few plugins and customizations on my dev site. I’ll do some investigating myself with turning things on and off.

    I just installed this plugin (which is awwwwwwwesome) I had a custom built solution using advanced custom fields, but this will be much easier to manage and also the csv export feature will be amazing.

    That being said, I’m also getting the same export problems. Currently running on WP 4.2.4 with a fresh install (1.6.2.5) of the plugin. I’m also on windows IIS.

    Let me know what I can provide to help find a solution.

    Holy crap, that’s awesome! I wasn’t expecting to get this working! I’m a novice and know enough to be dangerous. Although I don’t entirely understand how it’s working, it IS working, and I’m ok with that. 🙂

    Thanks Chris!

    Do what? The redirect to lock down your site to only members? There are quite a few plugins that can help. One I used in development for a while was WordPress Access Control. https://ww.wp.xz.cn/plugins/wordpress-access-control/ One checkbox does it for you. If you want a simple option and can edit your functions file. without the extra bells and whistles and need to keep up with plugin compatibility/updates. Add the below to your functions.php.

    //If we are not logged in and not on the login page then direct us to the login and redirect to requested page after successful login
    add_action('init','is_logged_in');
    function is_logged_in() {
    	if ( !is_user_logged_in() && !is_login_page()) {
    		auth_redirect();
    	}
    }
    
    // Determine if we are on the login page
    function is_login_page() {
        return in_array($GLOBALS['pagenow'], array('wp-login.php', 'wp-register.php'));
    }

    FYI for the Pim and anyone else… I just came across the issue after successfully using the plugin for a few weeks. Same thing… Stuck on “Done creating empty archive.” However webinger’s note about the requireauth plugin made me think of my recent changes around the time it stopped working. I added an auth_redirect(); function redirect to the login page and require my users to login (internal intranet). Once I commented out that line the plugin seems to be working as it should.

    I’ve been messing around with this forever and trying all the post suggestions also. I don’t see any reference that the styles dropdown looks at the editor-style.css. Didn’t there use to be a checkbox under “Advanced” to “import editor-style.css”?

    Through testing the various stylesheets, what I’ve found is it loads class styles that are included in the “content.css” file located here:
    /wp-includes/js/tinymce/themes/advanced/skins/wp_theme/content.css, which is where I also commented out the default ones: aligncenter, alignleft, alignright, wp-caption, wp-cation-dd, wp-gallery and wp-oembed.

    Anyone else try this?
