Possible ECI Bug Found   

Jan 25th, 2011 // In: Easy CSV Importer // By: Comments 0

** RESOLVED **

Saving the most recent SQL Insert query carried out for a project was causing the problem. Quotes and commas were causing the array to become invalid in a sort of way.

It is possible that this bug has been triggered during development and is not actually happening with anyone else so it is not urgent but must be monitored. No one has reported problems that suggest this has happened to them and I’ve worked on the plugin a while without it happening. However if it is a bug and it exists somewhere in the plugin that causes it to happen on rare occasion then I need feedback on it.

The problem is that the CSV data array is being stored in the wrong way. Normally to store it in the way that it has been on my blog, we need to use a php function named serialize. That function does not exist in my plugin after doing a search. I can’t think of any other way for my plugin to make this happen which is why I’ve considered one of many recently installed plugins being the cause of the problem, along with an error caused by one of them.

I’ve included  a screenshot of what you are looking for. If you see your CSV data array stored on a single line like in this image, please contact me straight away and let me know what you were doing when you first noticed any issues with your blog. Once this data array is saved in this manner, it will cause an error to appear on the head of the “2. Data Functions” panel on the project configuration page.

Here is what the CSV Profile array should look like and this screenshot was taking on the same blog as the above so you can see that the plugin does operate in this area as expected.
