Hi all,
my version of php 2.8.12.
I have to export list by list all the members, but the system lets me only choose on a 3 years range in the past.
I have found this solution on the forum https://forums.phplist.com/viewtopic.php?f=34&t=42102
that suggests to add
define(‘DATE_START_YEAR’,0);
define(‘DATE_END_YEAR’,0);
in config.php
but it does not work on phplist 2.8.12
It keeps on deafult (3 years in the past and 10 years in the future)
Probably 2.8.12 has different settings.
Can someone of you help me?
I really do thank you in advance and sorry for my poor English
I fixed the problem.
The Dragon solution does not work on phplist 2.8.12.
I found out how to fix it and I write it here for those with such a version of the software.
So if you have phplist 2.8.12 or similar and you have my same problem, you should go to lists/config/admin/date.php
and here in this
$html .= ‘’;
for ($i=$year - 3;$i<$year + 10;$i++) {
$html .= "<option ";
if ($i == $year)
$html .= “selected”;
$html .= “>$i”;
just change the variables in for ($i=$year - 3;$i<$year + 10;$i++)
according to the number of years you wish phplist to export the mailing lists.
Thanks again to all
M.
Version 2 was superseded long ago by version 3 and is no longer supported. I’m surprised you can still run it as my hosts actually prevent old insecure out of date installations, and not just phpList, but Joomla, WP etc as they are security risks these days.
Don’t get me wrong Marc, I’m glad that you have fixed the problem for yourself, and very grateful that you’ve also given us the solution for anyone else in your situation. That’s really one of the mainstays of a support forum, anyone can post solutions and it’s great when they do share.
