Export CSV

Post by td888 »

When I export all my rankings to a CSV, some rows are not correct. See image.

Hi again! We've made a couple changes to this functionality, but they're not necessarily going to address the problems you reported:

The garbled character in "Autómata" depends on you importing the file in UTF8 format -- when I import this into my spreadsheet, for example, it looks correct.

And the backslashed quotes are necessary, as part of the XML format. There's just no way around it -- the easiest way to "fix" the problem would be to search/replace within your spreadsheet program, from \" to "

The changes we did make will also help with the formatting of this file :) Thanks again!

Why is XML format necessary for a CSV file ?
