Export File Unreadable
-
Downloaded export file to see format as sample before uploading additional users and the file contains unreadable characters. Shows same unreadable characters when opening as .csv file or with text editor. Something I missed during setup or could the database character set be incorrect? Thoughts?
-
This is strange, could you show us an example?
Sure, do you want a file or try to post the text here?
Also a screenshot can be useful.
How can I post a picture?
Here’s a sample of the code:
`ãÕV[o€6~ÔØåbË !u≥‰†@∑Æ[ª¶›ä›Ú$Pe≥¶%ç§Ï∏Eˇ˚IKvba¿Ü=¨@Ò‹o¸xz≈d.⁄oPo>ŸñrÅfi¸‡NU }5ºd’I thought maybe the character or collation was the issue but I can export the users as readable csv files in two other plug ins and directly from mysql as csv files without issue.
I don’t think so, charset or collation won’t affect it because we use WP API.
Have you activated log to see if there is some problem?

It seems like you have some problem in another file in WordPress that throws some kind of echo. So the file being generated by the plugin, is corrupted by this.
Look at Cannot modify header information for example, there is some echo before the header() we call.
Check your plugins, theme and installation and when the echo before header disappear it must work.
