Issue/Request:

Hi,

I have a question on the following instructions:
http://yalesites.yale.edu/module-tutorials/views-data-export
I did everything but I don’t understand step 5.

I have the data export view setup at:
http://dev.procurement.yale.edu/buy-guide
If you look at the view you’ll see the “Data export” view, but I don’t understand step 5.

I need to place the link to download a CSV file of the buying guide and all seemed fine until the final step.

Thank you,

Kimberly

Hi Kimberly;

Just a follow up to our 5 minute meeting:

The fifth step is to check a box under ‘Data export settings’, second item in the list, ‘Attach to:’ and select page (selecting page is the usual choice).

Here are a couple of links to instructions that may be useful in creating the Views Data Export:

Drupal.org instructions: https://www.drupal.org/node/1820452

YouTube instructions for Drupal 7 Views Data Export Module: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ssOF3nPgcfc

Good luck and let me know how things go.

Please contact us via the Forum if you need further assistance.

Best regards,

Carris
