Bubble Page to PDF - New Plugin from Zeroqode

ZeroqodeSupport · June 8, 2022, 1:48pm

Hello, @evgenia.tarasenko. Thanks for reaching out.

Unfortunately, at the moment it is not possible. The fact that the plugin has to make such complicated mathematical calculations (indicate the page break depending on the page parameters, dynamic repeating group content, etc.) is not allowing you at the moment to use the pagebreaker functionality for the use case you have.

The pagebreaker feature is working, but not ideal for every use case/condition. For example:

Please feel free to reach out when you need any help with the plugin.

Hi ! Is anyone having trouble with this plugin?
It seems mine has stopped working a couple days ago…
I’m using the targeted element id.
I can’t figure out where the problem is coming from
This is what I’m getting in the console :

Any idea?

Hello again! @tart2000design

Thank you for providing access. But, unfortunately, we only have access to “read-only” mode. To be able to investigate the root cause of the issue you have, we need to test the plugin in your environment. For this, we need edit rights - if we need to add/remove some action to verify some functionalities. No worries - we will create a savepoint to return your app to the same state it was before our intervention).

Best regards,
Zeroqode Support Team

Done

Hello @tart2000design
Thanks for your cooperation.

Let us check what might be the issue, as soon as the investigation is completed, we’ll get back to you.

Hello @tart2000design,
Thanks for your patience.

The problem was in the “ID” field. To make the plugin understand which page to convert, the ID you assign to the “Create pdf from HTML server-side ConvertortoPDFv2.0 A” action and the parent group’s ID must be the same.

For example, your setup on the “pdf-export” page is correct and the plugin works fine. We’ve created a test page in your app and assigned an ID to the parent group where your page content is placed (in our case “pdf1”). And then, we add that ID to the plugin action.

Here are screenshots showing the difference in pages:

Please check the test page, and let us know if it helped.

Well, I can see that it works on this group, but what I’m trying to do is export the repeating group with the different sequences. And it had the same ID I was calling in the workflow…
And it worked before it stopped working a couple of days ago…
On your test page, when I delete the id on the group and put it (exact same name) on the RG, it stops working.
So this is not where the problem is coming from.
Con you please look into it?

Hello @tart2000design,
Thank you for the details.

We will need some time to investigate the issue you are having. Once any update will become available, we will let you know.

Hello there,
Can we show the pop up preloader several times ? I can’t figure it out. In the demo it’s not working as well. It’s working the first time but it’s not working the second time. “converting is finished” is always “yes” after the first download and we can’t set it to “no” when we hide the pop up (or it’s no setting up to no when we relaunch a download). Can you help me with this ?
Regards

tart2000design · June 22, 2022, 2:37pm

Hi! Any update on this front?
Thank you

ZeroqodeSupport · June 24, 2022, 12:19pm

Hello, @tart2000design.
Apologies for the late reply.

Unfortunately, there is no updates yet. We have 2 major points that effecting the speed of the requested feature delivery - workload of the plugin developer and the complicity of the requested improvement. Adapting a pagebreaker functionality is quite difficult, but we will do our best to find the most workable and convenient solution for it.

Thank you for your patience.
Please be sure we inform you once the pagebreaker will be updated.

Regards,
Zeroqode Support Team

Hi, clean pagebreak would be great!
But I was wondering regarding this (Bubble Page to PDF - New Plugin from Zeroqode - #800 by tart2000design) issue, for which you asked to be added to my project…
At the moment, the PDF download is still broken…

ZeroqodeSupport · June 24, 2022, 1:01pm

@tart2000design ,

Oh, apologies for the mistake. Sure, this request is under investigation as well. We will check with the plugin developer the possibility to prioritize your report.

Thank you.

Hello!

I am having issues with getting the outputurl. The pdf is succesfully saving to the database, but when I try to add in the output url in an email or save as a file type to a log, nothing goes through.

This is possible with this plugin right? To create a pdf, then add it into an email?

My use case is making a log, that when saved by the instructor, a pdf is then emailed to the student.

jpiercebbg · July 12, 2022, 2:01am

Does anyone have any tutorials or help to make the PDF download work whether the user is on a desktop, phone or tablet? I’m really struggling with this and would appreciate any help. I’m not even sure if it’s possible. My ultimate goal is for it to appear well on the screen, but also ensure the download is a typical letter size. I’ve tried a lot, but nothing successful so any tips, tricks, etc would be amazing. Thank you!

Zerqode might not like me saying this but their entire plugin relies on the client-side which is bad for your situation with different screen sizes. I switched to SelectPDF (has a monthly cost but the plugin is made by Bubble) and it’s all done in the backend server-side.
