Hi,

I'm using views and custom posts to create a log of issues. It would be great if we could add an 'export' link to the view that when clicked it exports the posts in the view into a excel or csv file. Ideally this would do all posts that are in the view, including those on page 2, page 3 etc.

Is this possible? If not, is there a quick way of doing this or maybe a 3rd party plugin?

Thanks

Hello. Thank you for contacting the Toolset support.

No - there is no native feature available with Toolset views to export the View's result to CSV format.

You may try to search any third party plugin or write your own custom code to achieve this function. Still - following links may help you:

Hi Minesh,

Thanks for the link to the other posts. Unfortunately I couldn't get them to work ... a little bit too techie!

But I found this plugin will create a frontend export link hidden link

Only this it won't do is export just the filtered posts in the current view ... it exports the whole lot. But that's better than none!

Thanks
