Hello all,
I’ve been reading through the forums and around the internet with regards to reporting registrations in a CSV file. I have done this, but there is too much information. Now, I found this link here which seems to do what I would want it to.
My questions are as follows:
Where would I put that piece of code? in my functions file? or installed as a plugin for EE?
Also, if I use that piece of code, would that affect reporting on other things? I mean, there will be times where the information I want to filter could be useful.
But for the main part, I would only need a few bits from that report (names, address, amount and a custom field I have asking where they heard about the website).
Many thanks in advance.

You can add the code from the other thread to a functions plugin or into your WordPress theme’s functions.php file.
If you go the site specific plugin route, you’ll have the option to temporarily deactivate the plugin and get the entire unfiltered report.

Thank you Josh that’s much appreciated. So really the site plugin option would be better if I had to swap between the minimal data and full data.

Hi Gaviny,
We’ll never ask you to edit the core plugin as those changes would be lost on a software update.
If you are using a child theme, then you could add it to the functions.php file or a site specific plugin.
Both are safe ways to add customizations to your site and they won’t be lost when you update Event Espresso 4 so you could go with one or the other but not both.
Does that help?

Hi, back again.
Im just choosing the fields i want to exclude from this. I notice some of them in the report are enclosed in []
Count of this registration in the group registration [REG_count]
as an example. So i was wandering which part of this i needed to use to exclude? do i exclude the bits in the brackets, the bit just before the brackets or the whole thing?
Thanks

You include the full string, so for example the code to exclude the reg count column would be:
'Count of this registration in the group registration [REG_count]',

Thanks Josh. It confused me because I did use the bit in the brackets and it worked for one, but didn’t pull the rest through. So I was a bit unsure how it would work.
Great help again guys, much appreciated.
Regards
