Cant print/pdf

Couple of questions…

• Do you get the error before seeing the preview?
• If after, do you get the error when you actually try and print?
• Which browser are you using?
• Can you send a screenshot?

Happens when I hit the button, I never get the preview

I have emailed screenshot to you – the url in th browser:

https://www.printfriendly.com/print?headerImageUrl=&headerTagline=&pfCustomCSS=&imageDisplayStyle=right&disableClickToDel=0&disablePDF=0&disablePrint=0&disableEmail=0&hideImages=0&url=https://diskstation/wordpress/test-preview/

Browser: Firefox in Win7, Safari & Crome on iPad

?

The URL for the page you are trying to print is invalid. Notice there is no Top Level Domain (.com, .net, etc.).

https://diskstation/wordpress/test-preview/

https://www.printfriendly.com/print?headerImageUrl=&headerTagline=&pfCustomCSS=&imageDisplayStyle=right&disableClickToDel=0&disablePDF=0&disablePrint=0&disableEmail=0&hideImages=0&url=https://diskstation/wordpress/test-preview/

This is the cause of the error.

Best,

Hi, when I created the issue I wrote

I am testing the plugin on my local test installation so I cant give you a link

So you are saying it is impossible to test this on a local install, this scares me bit…

It seems like some of pdf generation is done on your site. Nothing in the description states this

PDF generation cannot be done client-side and requires our server to generation. Since we’re unable to access your local computer, we’re unable to generate the PDF.

PDF generation is a very stable feature we’ve offered for five years. Top brands like SitePoint.com, Standford.com, and MIT use it without issues. We have no active tickets regarding problems with PDF generation. We’re also very responsive to any bugs that appear.

One idea… you could also try launching with PDF disabled, then enable and test it.
