Well, the last two updates messed all strings under context (as Adminer calls it) or domain (as WPML string translation calls it) “Petition”. Seven out of eight of these strings were replaced by my own Finnish translations when I updated to 1.5.4 and again with 1.5.5. These are:
– confirmation email message
– confirmation email subject
– signaturelist title
– already signed message
– expiration message (this was not affected for some reason, even though it has been translated to Finnish – I have not set any expiration date though)
– share message
– success message
– submit button text(There are also 226 strings under context or domain “dk_speakout” and 2 under “dk-speakout”, but none of these were affected.)
The bigger problem is that Speakout’s Settings page doesn’t display any content for any of the four tabs there (at least on my site), so I have to correct the seven screwed-up strings by hacking the database directly. I remember that this problem has been around at least since the 1.5.3 update (or maybe WP 4.8.2? Hard to say as I seldom used to need the Settings).
Thanks, 1.5.5 fixed the message formatting issue and the hyperlink is working again in Outlook.
The weird thing is that both 1.5.4 and 1.5.5 updates changed all English strings under context “Petition” into their Finnish translations. I had to change them back to English manually.
(I had to do that by hacking the database with ARI Adminer, by the way – the Settings page does not seem to work right. It opens up and I see the four tabs there, but none of them show any content. The tab headings change color when I bring the mouse over them, but they do nothing when clicked. All I see is the “save changes” button below the tab headings. I think this has been so at least since 1.5.3. I have WP 4.8.2.)

In reply to: [SpeakOut! Email Petitions] Options Missing and not responsiveI just noticed I have the same problem (using Speakout 1.5.4 and WP 4.8.2). The Settings page opens up, I see the tabs Petition Form, Signature List, Confirmation Emails, Admin Display – but none of them show any content. They change color when I move the mouse over them, but clicking them has no effect. Right under them is the “Save changes” button, nothing else.

In reply to: [SpeakOut! Email Petitions] signaturelist shortcode not workingSo, it turned out that in my case the shortcode just needed to be re-typed – the old one had some exotic space character before the id that screwed things up.
Thanks very much for the hint, wouldn’t have figured that out in a million years 🙂

In reply to: [SpeakOut! Email Petitions] widget in sidebar not displaying properlyYes, I got Adblocker in Chrome, but disabling it didn’t help. I also have it in Chrome on my other computer, and there the widget is displayed correctly.

In reply to: [SpeakOut! Email Petitions] widget in sidebar not displaying properlyI tried disabling all extensions, but it didn’t help. On the other hand, opening the page in an incognito window did display the widget correctly. Then I also tried logging out as admin, but that didn’t help. Go figure 🙂

In reply to: [SpeakOut! Email Petitions] widget in sidebar not displaying properlyAh. Thanks for the hint. It seems not to work only on my laptop’s Chrome for some weird reason… I tried Edge and it works just fine, and on another computer it works also on Chrome 🙂

In reply to: [SpeakOut! Email Petitions] signaturelist shortcode not workingNow that I think about it, I’m not sure if the signaturelist shortcode ever did work for me after Speakup evolved to Speakout.

No hurry any more, I got the job done by importing with a mySQL admin plugin (Adminer). Just so you know, there seems to be some problem with your importer’s ability to cope with large databases.
I did install the new importer version 1.3, and except for the memory (?) problem with a large database it worked without tweaking in my browser (Google Chrome).
I noticed that now the filename extension MUST be “csv” – the same file will not be accepted if it is renamed to “txt”.
Sounds a bit like a java heap size or memory problem? Is more required if there are lots of entries in the petition? No error message though, just a blank screen.
Deleting all the entries from the database fixed this problem the last time, and probably would do it for 1.3 too. After deleting the entries from the petition, the importer starts working again.
