 * Everything I seen so far in my installation of event registration plugin looks
   fantastic, but none of the export to excel or csv functions work. All produce:
 * Fatal error: Call to undefined function get_option() in /home/phenom/public_html/
   site/wp-content/plugins/event-registration/event_registration_export.php on line
   24
 * any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

 * The reason you are getting that error is that wordpress is not installed in the
   root directory of your website. The plugin was written assuming it would be in
   the root installation. In the plugin folder there is a file called event_registration
   export.php you will need to change line 3.
 * Current:
 * 3. define( ‘ABSPATH’, $_SERVER[‘DOCUMENT_ROOT’] . ‘/’ );
 * Modified:
 * 3. define( ‘ABSPATH’, $_SERVER[‘DOCUMENT_ROOT’] .
    ‘/your_subdirectory_name/’);
 * Additionally you will note that emails sent will say [wordpress@yourdomain.com](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/event-registration-exporting-errors/wordpress@yourdomain.com?output_format=md).
   The email thing is a default WordPress thing, not related to my plugin. There
   is a great little plugin that resolves that
    issue. [http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/mail-from/](http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/mail-from/)

 * Thanks! This is just the answer I needed. I was going nuts wondering why the 
   export excel functioned on one of my sites and not the other.

 * I’m having a major problem getting the export function to work. I have edited
   the export.php file as directed:
 *     ```
       /** Define ABSPATH as the root directory */
       define( 'ABSPATH', $_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT'] . '/wordpress/' );
       ```
   
 * But it’s still not working. I get this error:
 *     ```
       Warning: require_once(/kunden/homepages/46/d195943986/htdocs/rcf/wordpress/wp-settings.php) [function.require-once]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /homepages/46/d195943986/htdocs/rcf/wp-config.php on line 75
   
       Fatal error: require_once() [function.require]: Failed opening required '/kunden/homepages/46/d195943986/htdocs/rcf/wordpress/wp-settings.php' (include_path='.:/usr/lib/php5') in /homepages/46/d195943986/htdocs/rcf/wp-config.php on line 75
       ```
   
 * I started getting that error after I had added the directory my site is installed
   in. Before that it just did the common error.
 * Any suggestions? Is there some syntax error in my code? I’m a php noob x 10.
 * Thanks!

 * The file path is still wrong. Change back to the original and send me a copy 
   of the error.
 * thanks.

 * I have installed the most recent version (1.3) yet the plugin folder does not
   contain any additional php files. I see only event_reigs.php and therefore am
   unable to use this fix for the excel export issue.
 * Any help would be appreciated!!

 * Note: my error is slightly different from those posted above. My error reads
 * Error 404: NOT FOUND!

 * One more question– I am having trouble configuring the IPN. Steps on setting 
   up the notify URL would be appreciated. Thank you!!
