Hello! First of all, thanks for providing us with such a useful product. I love it!

However, is exporting content supported in this module? I've been trying to export and import the content of the module, but it keeps saying that the file does not contain a valid XML structure.

Also, I've recently restored a DNN SQL backup of mine, and the whole site seems to be working fine, except for the Expandable Text/HTML module, where the text won't expand. The funny thing is that it does work when I enable the 'JQuery effects' in module settings. But without it, nothing.

Thanks again for everything!

never mind the 2nd problem, I re-restored it and now the module is working fine again! I think maybe the problem was that for the first time I used Cassini instead of IIS. I now switched back to IIS.

Importing and exporting content would still be handy function though.

Yes, that should be functional, as it has been for a while.

I'll have to look into this.

I just tested with the newest release, export-import between the same versions still doesn't work.

Can you send us an example of the generated export file? And the exact error message that you are encountering?

Hi, sorry I'm a bit late..

The error message I'm getting is "The file you selected does not contain a valid XML structure".

I did a little bit of investigating and it seems that when exporting to xml, somehow a '>' tag is left out. To be more exact, the closing tag of "sort order" is broken.

Example : http://www.translapolis.org/shared/content.ICGModulesExpandableTextHtml.hello.xml

Once I manually corrected the sort order closing tags, the xml imported just fine. So should only be a minor patch
