The plugin Exports and Reports has been temporary taken down due to a CSV issue that we’ve already fixed. The plugin is going to stay down until I refactor the whole codebase so it passes the required review steps to get it back up.
Unfortunately, the person who reported the CSV problem didn’t contact me first and went through the plugin team itself. That just means there’s a more arduous process for me to get this plugin back up and I didn’t expect to suddenly have to spend this amount of time rewriting things.
As soon as the code changes are made and it passes the automated code style checks, another release will be made available with those changes and it will be reviewed by the plugins team. Hopefully at that point, it will be approved and become available again.

SELECT id

However, in the wp-content/exports directory, I can clearly see the exported file. Some issue with presenting the downloaded file? How to proceed with this? Via the web interface, everything works just fine, it is just the api call to immediately download the created report that seems to be failing.

]]>Is it possible to run a report from a saved Procedure? I have a few procedures that create temporary tables, and then run a query based on those. I would like to call one of these procedures to create a report. I’ve tried the following, which works in the database, but not with the plugin:
CALL get_courses();
The field names I used match the column names of the final SELECT query in the procedure.
If I can’t use saved Procedures, can I run something similar with multi-step queries?
Hi there,
Your example of exporting says to append the parameters as follows:
&action=export&export_type=custom&export_delimiter=#
Is there a parameter to supply a field?
So for example can I
1. Setup the query as :
SELECT * FROM wp_postmeta WHERE %%WHERE%%
2. Setup a number field as post_id
and then report out with json using this post_id field like so?
report=#&full=1&action=json&token=#&export_type=json&post_id=100000
This didn’t work but this be done?

General question. My issue is in an admin-only page.
I have a membership site with custom fields for a custom post type. A report of these records works for all (~200 members) except about 10. Those 10 records have one or two empty fields for phone numbers (e.g., fax, other.) If I enter ‘ ‘ in those fields, they show correctly in the report. How can I fix this (or what am I doing wrong)? I am familiar with NULL and NOT NULL in MySQL, but I could not make any of that work.
]]>Hi ..I added input field here but where i will get my input field database in this plugin?
]]>Hi,
This is probably more a how-to-use question as I only installed your plugin this morning.
I have written my sql query and it works against the live database when I run it directly from MySQL Workbench but I can’t get any output when used through the plugin on a test installation.
Example Posts report – they don’t have any posts!
Example Pages report –
New Daily Participants report –
There is any tutorial to learn about the plugin? I see there is a lot of possible configuration but no documentation. Looks great!
1) I did a query and I could “filter” by date+time… but the “time” part is not filtering
2) Can I add also a filter with a “range” (between) that is not a date? or create a filter for “greater than”
3) I don’t understand how to implement %variables%. If I need in the query:
WHERE Order_ID > VARIABLE… how can I define the variable?
Thanks in advance!
]]>I’m sure that this is simple, but I can’t figure out how to get search or filter to work! I made a small test query:

Dear Team,
I am using the exports and reports plugin and search is not working. Please can some one tell me how to add filter.
Regards,
Boopathi
When Exports and Reports was updated from version 0.8.2 to 0.8.3, all reports became inaccessible. When I rolled it back to 0.8.2, everything worked fine again. For example,
https://sjpc.org/casptest/wp-admin/admin.php?page=exports-reports&report=6
works correctly under 0.8.2 using an admin account, but under 0.8.3, returns message “Sorry, you are not allowed to access this page.” Am I missing something?

]]>It is possible to get the structure and the name of the table where the reports are stored to create in my database?
I deleted because after an unexpected shutdown the table seems to be corrupted and I can’t access to the data

]]>Thanks for the great plugin! Had some trouble getting it to work in Pantheon. Posting this in the hopes that it helps someone else, and possibly improves the plugin.
To use this plugin in Pantheon I had to do the following 3 things:
– Add the following to the wp-config.php so the plugin has filesystem access
define(‘FS_METHOD’, ‘direct’);
– Following the directions Pantheon provides, create a directory in /uploads and symbolically link it to where this plugin wants to write (/plugins/exports-and-reports/exports)
– Modify one line of the plugin. Wrapping a constant in PHP’s realpath function so as to expand out our symbolic link to get a correct download link.
You’ll need to change this line:
wp_redirect( str_replace( WP_ADMIN_UI_EXPORT_DIR, WP_ADMIN_UI_EXPORT_URL, $file ) );
to:
wp_redirect( str_replace( realpath(WP_ADMIN_UI_EXPORT_DIR), WP_ADMIN_UI_EXPORT_URL, $file ) );
There is likely a better solution, but this worked for me.
Tackling it as the plugin author could be done in several ways. Defining the constant differently, not wrapping $file in realpath (this may not work), or at this point in the code wrapping the constant in realpath to expand out the sym-link before str_replace and redirect. /shrug Just 2 cents.
