getDividends no longer works

[salritchie2]

Description

getDividends() works sometimes but not others.

Expected behavior

download of yahoo finance dividends for FCNTX

Minimal, reproducible example

FCNTXDIV <- getDividends('FCNTX', from = "2015-01-01")

Error in vapply(parse(text = fr[, 2]), eval, numeric(1)) : 
  values must be length 1,
 but FUN(X[[1]]) result is length 10

Thanks for the report. I'm closing because this is a duplicate of #292 and #294. In the future, please search for similar issues and/or test to see if the development version is fixed.

[salritchie2]

Thank you. But neither of these other issues references getDividends so I will try to figure it out on my own.

@salritchie2 issue 294 references getDividends(). Issue 292 is the root cause of the problem. getDividends() attempts to return dividends that are split-adjusted by default, so it calls getSplits(). The call to getSplits() fails, which throws the same error you report.

Thank you. This was helpful. I did figure out what I needed to do by adding the split.adjust parm, which solved the problem. Sally Ritchie.
