Export It 1.3.1 Documentation

Installation

To install Export It you follow the same steps as any other ExpressionEngine add-on:

  1. Unzip the download
  2. Upload the extracted folder to your ExpressionEngine third party folder usually located at:
    /system/expressionengine/third_party/
  3. Navigate to your Add-Ons management page and choose Modules
  4. Select Export It from the list and click install.

Requirements

Because Export It stores sensitive information in the form of API credentials so an encryption key within ExpressionEngine needs to be set. If your installation doesn't already have one set all you have to do is open up your config.php file and paste the below variable inside (be sure to create your own 32 character string though):

$config['encryption_key'] = "YOUR KEY SHOULD BE LONG AND RANDOM";

See the Code Ignitor documentation for details.

I am flagging this documentation as:

  1. Hi!
    Just purchased this module and I get the :
    “In order to use the encryption class requires that you set an encryption key in your config file.”

    where can I find information about this?
    The documentation seems only to talk about installing the module but nothing about adding a key to the config file.

    Thanks!
