Hi,
Export of posts fails when exporting posts of a specific category. This
probably has affect on other export settings as well.
File /wp-admin/includes/export.php, line 543 is supposed to echo the slug
of the current category's parent. It is trying to get that data from the
$cats variable, which normally contains all the categories, but it does
not contain that data when limiting the posts to export to a specific
category.
Current line 543:
{{{
<wp:category_parent><?php echo wxr_cdata( $c->parent ? $cats[ $c->parent
]->slug : '' ); ?></wp:category_parent>
}}}
Suggested fix:
{{{
<wp:category_parent><?php echo wxr_cdata( $c->parent && isset( $cats[
$c->parent ] ) ? $cats[ $c->parent ]->slug : '' ); ?></wp:category_parent>
}}}
Blessings,
Klaas
