    I get the impression I can’t see the forest for the trees. I am quite sure that this is implemented and possible. not difficult to do and somewhere written down, but I can’t figure out how to do it and don’t find the instruction.

    Please give me a hint how I can archieve to export (csv) a list of e-mail addresses of all the people of a specific EME group.

    Easiest: go in the people-admin page, select to show only the group of choice, adjust the row count so all your rows are on 1 page and press “CSV”

    I am getting closer. Thanks.

    I am curious about the csv because the file typ to download is indicated as application/vnd.ms-excel and it doesn’t contain any comma but an html tags and looks more like xml.

    It is a html-table that excel can import.
    You could also create a template of type “HTML output template” that e.g. just contains #_EMAIL (with an enter behind it), and then use the dropdown-option “html output” on the selected rows.

    Okay. And a real csv form? Like an txt file with rows like
    name1,address1
    name2,address2
    name3,address3
    etc

    What’s wrong with the csv export as it is which can be imported as is in excel or libreoffice? Or with the html method I explained (with which you can create your csv output too)?

    The request is to have a simple csv file that allows the import also in other tools that demand proper comma-separated values. As a workaround I can import EME’s output in LibreOffice and save as csv.

    I’ll change the behavior of the CSV button for the next version to be real CSV (the original function was already years old and I never got around of reviewing it and at that time I didn’t even really understand jquery 🙂 )
    This is the change:
