I don’t know if it was the problem, but I did find a bug in the download code. I just posted an update. Also after you click the download button there should be a link, ‘click here to download’, that appears below the button. I know its confusing, but its for security reasons.
Hi hoffcamp, thanks for the quick response. I have now updated. I don’t get an error now, but i get a blank page under the “submission data” tab in the form editor and no download.
Incidentally I had this same problem under 1.6.2, but didn’t think much of it as i hadnt finished writing the form i was working on yet.
Could you copy the page source and e-mail it to me? (campbellATcampbellhoffmanDOTcom) That will help me narrow it down. I think the file write is what is messing up. You could try going to Advanced Settings, at the very bottom, and setting the file write method to ‘direct’.
I made some changes to the CSV download in 1.6.8 that may fix your problem.
Also 1.6.9 contains another bug fix. It turns out the write method setting was not being used, so I guess try setting it to ‘direct’ again and see what happens.
I am thrilled with this plugin, however, I too am having trouble with the download of the .csv and currently only have the 1.6.18 version to download from the Extension area. I am getting the following error:
wordpress-form-manager/tmp/data.csv was not found on this server
I have set full perms on the site for both tmp and templates area but still no luck. Please help.
Unfortunately this is something I’m still working on. I’ll post on this thread once I have it figured out. Did you try changing the file write method?
Hello hoffcamp, I’m also experiencing difficulty with the wordpress-form-manager/tmp/data.csv not displaying. I click on Download (all entries), then ‘Click here to Download’ and no CSV loads, just a page titled ‘Nothing found for Wp-content Plugins WordPress-form-manager Tmp Data Csv’. How do we change the file write method? Thank you
Hope this bug will be fix soon, keep the good work Hoffcamp…;)
I just posted an update (1.6.19) that hopefully fixes this issue. I think the problems with the CSV download have been with writing files to the server, since not every configuration allows for this, and not every host will allow such a configuration anyway. So I changed things around so no files have to be written.
