Exporting Excel Fatal Error

Hello @randzgonz02,

We have checked the export excel functionality for wordpress 4.9.8 and PHP version 7.2.12 and plugin is working fine.

Can you let us know, which PHP Version you have on the server. If it’s below PHP5.6, we suggest you to upgrade or below is the fastest solution to the over get the issue for temporary basis.

Step1 : Open “\wp-content\plugins\advanced-cf7-db\admin\class\PHPExcel.php” file and change the code at line no 51 as explained below:

Existing Code :  if (!empty($this->getFile($file))) {
Replace with the code :  if ($this->getFile($file)) {

If still issue occurs don’t hesitate to contact us.

Replacing the code solved the issue. Thank you very much for the fast response and quick solution!

Anyway, the staging server is using PHP 5.4.19. What if we decided to upgrade to the latest version, should I restore back the original code we just changed or will you update the plugin code and we’ll just download its latest version?

Once again thanks for the help. Very much appreciated.

Noted with big thanks! ??

it still does not work for me, I have uninstalled the plugin and I have reinstalled it with the last version and when exporting it to Excel it tells me that the file is damaged. He asks me if he wants to open it of all manderas, I say yes, and he appears to me like the images previously passed by randzgonz02
