EZ SQL Reports Shortcode Widget and DB Backup

Beskrivning

Just place some SQL on in the box and save it as a report. You can save multiple reports and they will be listed on the Admin Menu so you can quickly run them again anytime with just one click. You can place your reports on the User’s Dashboard based on Roles. You can also put a report on a Page or Post using a shortcode like [SQLREPORT name=”My Report” style=”padding: 6px;” /]

There is also an shortcode for the wpdb::get_var function that you can use to display a single value from your database. For example, this will display the number of users on your site:
[sqlgetvar]SELECT COUNT(*) FROM wp_users[/sqlgetvar]
Note: because of a known exploit in the WordPress shortcode functionality it is required that an admin user create an SQL Report with the exact query that will be used in the sqlgetvar shotcode, otherwise any subscriber could white their own shortcode query.

If you want to include an ”Export to CSV” button on your page or post then use the additional shortcode [SQLEXPORTCSV] once on any page or post that contains a report you want visitors to be able to download. Thanks to @loristictok and @rob66bnu for posting the suggestion with the JavaScript that I used to make this new Shortcode.
Note: Adding this shortcode to the just one time will insert the ”Export to CSV” button at the top of every HTML Table on the page.

Automatic Database Backups

Your database can be automatically saved and archived every hour and/or every day, and backups can be emailed to the address you specify. You can also restore the data to your WP DB or an external DB, which makes copying your database to another server and easy task.

Vanliga frågor

What do I do after I activate the Plugin?

Start Creating and Saving Reports.

How do I get one of my reports onto a Page or Post?

Just use the shortcode SQLREPORT like this [SQLREPORT name=”My Report” style=”border: 2px solid #CCCCCC; padding: 6px;” /] but be sure the name attribute matches the exact name of a report you have already created.

How do I use a global PHP variable in one of my SQL queries?

Note: This < does not display properly on web pages so I used the HTML code < in this example, > works…

SELECT display_name FROM wp_users WHERE ID = ’<?php $current_user->ID ?>’
(There are other ways to get the display name in WordPress, this is just a simple example to illustrate the proper syntax.)

SELECT * FROM wp_users WHERE user_registered > ’<?php $_GET[thedate] ?>’
(note: this example assumes you are going to pass ’thedate’ as a GET variable in the query string and, as this example shows, don’t use quotes inside the PHP brackets.)

I find this plug-in invaluable for producing reports that combine information from multiple plug-ins, such as membership and event ticket sales. Very stable and very flexible. Thanks for the September 2021 update. The new shortcode for adding a “Export to CSV” button is a great addition!

I've found this plugin useful to produce custom reports for website owners who don't have the skills to run SQL queries in phpMyAdmin. I'd gladly pay for a premium version if it had at least an export to CSV button. Some extra styling options would be good too.
