    Hi,

    Your plugin is really great but I’m wondering about one function I really need.

    It is possible to add button “Export” (same as in back-end “Export now” tab in plugin settings) to the front-end?

    I mean I need to create blank page e.g https://my-site.com/new-page/ with ‘copy’ of the Export button from back-end connected with back-end settings.

    Is there a fast way to do sth like this?

    Thanks you, Tomek.

    Hi Tomek

    Please, you must add code for this button (in backend ) and call this code to make file

    $_REQUEST['profile'] = 'now';
WC_Order_Export_Ajax::run_one_job();

    I made the button on my page which is calling the code you write but nothing is happening :/
    Here is my code:

    <form method="post">
    <input type="submit" name="test" id="test" value="Export" />
</form>

<?php
if(array_key_exists('test',$_POST)){
   $_REQUEST['profile'] = 'now';
   WC_Order_Export_Ajax::run_one_job();
}
?>

    Where did you put php code ? inside page ?

    I think you should use something like this code and put it in functions.php

    add_action( 'parse_request', function( $query ) {
    if ( array_key_exists('test',$_POST)  ) {
       $_REQUEST['profile'] = 'now';
       WC_Order_Export_Ajax::run_one_job();
       die();
    }
    return $query;
});

    Thanks for quick reply. Now I have this code in page template:

    <form method="post">
    <input type="submit" name="exportAllOrders" id="exportAllOrders" value="Export" />
</form>

    And this in functions.php:

    add_action( 'parse_request', function( $query ) {
    if ( array_key_exists('exportAllOrders',$_POST)  ) {
       $_REQUEST['profile'] = 'now';
       WC_Order_Export_Ajax::run_one_job();
       die();
    }
    return $query;
});

    But my new button still cause HTTP ERROR 500 instead of download file.

<input type="hidden" name="action" value="order_exporter">
<input type="hidden" name="method" value="run_one_job">

    use this version 

    <form method="get" action="/wp-49/wp-admin/admin-ajax.php">
<input type="hidden" name="action" value="order_exporter">
<input type="hidden" name="method" value="run_one_job">
<select name="profile">
<option>now</option>
<option>1</option>
<option>2</option>
</select>
    <input type="submit" name="exportAllOrders" id="exportAllOrders" value="Export">
</form>

    when you edit profile you will see profile ID in the url , like …edit_profile&profile_id=XXX

    You must give this user capability “view_woocommerce_reports”.

    I have already export button on the frontend:

    <form method="get" action="/wp-admin/admin-ajax.php">
<input type="hidden" name="action" value="order_exporter">
<input type="hidden" name="method" value="run_one_job">
<input type="hidden" name="profile" value="now">
    <input type="submit" name="exportAllOrders" id="exportAllOrders" value="Export">
</form>

    Is it also possible to copy to frontend “Date range” section from dashboard with two date pickers (from & to) to allow user select date range?

    Btw. Why the “Date range” section exports order data not <from -> to> picked dates, but from one day after and to one day before I picked in input?

    Updated form

    <form method="get" action="/wp-49/wp-admin/admin-ajax.php">
<input type="hidden" name="action" value="order_exporter">
<input type="text" class="hasDatepicker" name="from_date" value="">
<input type="text" class="hasDatepicker" name="to_date" value="">
<input type="hidden" name="method" value="run_one_job">
<input type="hidden" name="profile" value="now">
    <input type="submit" name="exportAllOrders" id="exportAllOrders" value="Export">
</form>

    + you must add this code to functions.php

    add_filter('woe_settings_validate_defaults', function($settings){
 if( !empty($_GET['from_date']) )
	$settings['from_date'] = $_GET['from_date'];
 if( !empty($_GET['to_date']) )
	$settings['to_date'] = $_GET['to_date'];
 return $settings;
});

    but I can’t help you with datepickers.

    About wrong date range – probably, mysql and webserver use different timezones.
    We’ve already fixed this bug in beta.
