Hi there,
I wanted to use the Fabrik list option to make a membership report for a not-for-profit website. I figured I could do this with Fabrik Lists.
My first approach was that it would be easy! All I have to do is append "target=_blank" to the url invoking the list - but this solution also includes my Joomla template items which isn't very pretty when printing ( alot of extra stuff and menus).
I read somewhere that if I append ?=tmpl=component, that I can bypass the joomla template and JUST show the list - PERFECT I thought. And it worked! Yay!
Then I was asked by the membership to include the CSV export option in that report window for various reasons. I was sure it would work because this was ALSO built into this fine extension. However, for the life of me I couldn't get this to work. Every time I clicked on the export csv button in this new window nothing would happen and I noticed a bunch of java console errors. Then I removed the ?tmpl=component parameter in the url (which showed the list under my joomla template) and then the CSV export feature began to work again.
I was wondering if it is possible to use the CSV export in concert with ?tmpl=component? And what has to be done to make this work if it is possible. Or maybe there is another way I can view this list without it looking like a website. I just want the popup to look like a report.
Thank you very much Fabrik Community
(PS, I am not a programmer and am an accountant by trade, but have been able to dabble around enough to be somewhat proficient in Joomla )
Here is a small reference to the console errors:
(Uncaught TypeError: Cannot read property 'fitToContent' of undefined)
