      Hey there,

      Is it possible to generate a pdf file of the volunteers of a specific sign-up-sheet via link?
      I don‘t want to give the users the manage role because there is one user per list who is in need of the pdf document.

      In the pdf only the Name and the mail address is required.

      Thanks in advance
      Torben

      I do something similar in this way:

      1. Export the volunteers to Excel.
      It is possible to hide/choose columns before export – or by deleting columns in Excel afterwards.

      2. Print the document to PDF

      Torben,

      That is not currently possible. I’m currently using the datatables jQuery plugin for the viewing of data on the admin side, and it has all the export functionality built into it, so the exporting is not something I coded in PHP and could trigger with a link. It’s part of a javascript/jquery library: https://datatables.net/

      If you want me to code something custom for you, I could certainly do it. My rate for custom programming is $100 per hour. You can contact me privately through the contact form if you are interested. I think this is a very specific need that probably nobody else would be interested in, so not something I would put into the free plugin. Also, could possibly violate privacy of your volunteers if other people can figure out the link to trigger the data export and get a list of names and emails for spamming, etc. You would definitely want to protect a function like that by requiring the person to be logged in to an authorized account for that function.

      Im am using the pro version. It isn’t linked to my account here because of a different Mail address.

      Maybe it is possible to show a specific user a export option for a specific list in Frontend?

      Thanks for the fix answer!

      There is no “Pro” version of my plugin. Do you mean you bought one of the many extensions for it? There is only the free version on wordpress.org, and then several paid extensions you can buy that add more functionality (calendar view, customizer, custom fields, etc.).

      Again, none of that is currently possible. If you want something custom coded, we can discuss it. Otherwise, you have posted to the correct feature request forum, so this will stay here for future consideration, but I wouldn’t get my hopes up, as it seems like a very specific need.
