  • hi @kabengwa,
    I think you have a server problem, Could you enable debug mode in wp-config.php file (find define('WP_DEBUG', false) and change false to true ) and then copy the error in here ?

    Cheers,
    Cuong

    I have the same problem. We are running multisite, and get a blank page when we try to export ver WP 4.8

    Here’s the error we’re getting

    Notice: Use of undefined constant AUTH_COOKIE – assumed ‘AUTH_COOKIE’ in /var/www/vf/wp-includes/pluggable.php on line 767

    Notice: Use of undefined constant LOGGED_IN_COOKIE – assumed ‘LOGGED_IN_COOKIE’ in /var/www/vf/wp-includes/pluggable.php on line 760

    TIA

    Doesn’t seem this author is able to respond much. Can anyone else help me out here? We’re have a huge set of multisites we have to export to, and we’re sort of dead in the water right now. We like this plugin over the competitors, but this bug is kind of a deal breaker for us.

    TIA

    I have looked for a solution too and fail so ended up reconfiguring on all server while i wait for a better solution from these guys.

    In which site do you export the settings? Have you the plugin active for the hole network?

    Yes, it’s active for the whole network. I’ve tried master site and subsites repeatedly. I’ve disable ALL other plugins. I’ve uninstalled and resintalled your Adminimize. No change. WHen I click exports, this is the meat of the URL, but the page just goes blank.

    …/wp-admin/options-general.php?mw_adminimize_export_nonce=c59242265e&_wp_http_referer=%2Fwp-admin%2Foptions-general.php%3Fpage%3Dadminimize%2Fadminimize.php&_mw_adminimize_export=true&_mw_adminimize_save=Export+?#config_menu

    Also Frank, assuming we can fix this problem, I love this product. But I have one huge issue with it. Without a fixed table header, it’s extremely awkward trying to disable for multiple roles when the table header has already scrolled off. Having to scroll back up to find out which column to check/uncheck literally quadruples the time it takes to configure the anything by role. We considered hacking your plugin to add that scrolling header, but just don’t have time for another plugin hack. Right now, my workaround is a screencap of the header which I superimpose over the table. Annoying, but it works. Adding a fixed header under while the table scrolled would really make this product much easier to use.

    Still waiting.

    Hi @shoqvalue
    I had tested it now, different installations and it works fine, no problems.
    If you have the debug mode active and you click export, have you more error messages as your feedback for Notices above? The notices are from other topics, not Adminimize and also no problem in this context.
    In which are run your install, apache? Online, in www or local environment?

    Best.

    “As my feedback for notices above?” I don’t understand what you’re asking. I gave you the only errors that reported when we tried to export. We are running mutlisite? Ddid you test in that enivorment? We are running Apache on a virtual server?

    I don’t know what “notices from other topics” refers to.

    What exactly do you wish me to do?

    Ok, I turned on debugging and got this after I tried to export. Does this tell you anything more?

    Yes, I tested the export in different Multisite scenarios. Always it works, no problems.

    The notices, there you have is from other topics. This constant define WP on default, inside the core, see https://github.com/WordPress/WordPress/blob/3a4b5afa49e97ce99157265dd0a40bb02c044028/wp-includes/default-constants.php#L226

    Maybe you should try to export the settings without active other plugins, maybe you have a problem from other plugins or a theme? Can you try this, a test only with Adminimize, no other plugins and only active default WP themes.

    Best.

    As I said a the outset, we have tested it with all plugins disabled. Same result

    And obviously, I am not the only one having this issue, as the thread was started by someone getting exactly the same blank page that we are. Since it happens with no other plugins active, it has to be an Adminimize issue. Your plugin is excellent, but without being able to export to other subsites, it’s useless to us.
