Download Publisher not working with IATI Decipher

[JoshStanleyDevInit]

Hi Andy,

The Tech Team have just implemented a function on the Publisher List page on the Registry, whereby a user can download a list of current publishers in CSV, XLS, XML or JSON format.

However, we have noticed that the function does not work when the user has the IATI Decipher extension on their browser.

Is their something in the Decipher code that is intercepting this function and can anything be done to fix this?

Thanks, Josh

Hi @JoshStanleyDevInit,

I no longer work at Publish What You Fund, so it’s best to @ me.

Good detective work – you’re absolutely right that the plugin is at fault here. Apologies if this has caused a headache for the team.

I’m able to recreate the problem in Chrome. Could you confirm that that’s the browser where you’re seeing the problem?

I’ve fixed the bug in 0c804c21. However, the new version of the plugin (v1.5.0) isn’t yet available on the Chrome store (it’s awaiting approval), nor is it on the mozilla add-on store (they seem to have a bug at the moment, so I’m not able to submit it.)

Once it’s on both stores, it should auto-update on users’ machines. I’ll leave this ticket open until then.

Thanks @andylolz yes, Chrome is the browser! We'll update once the app gets automatically updated on our ends to confirm it works!

I'll keep this issue up-to-date with progress about both plugins and their relative stores, so that stakeholders that come here know what the status is (this issue will be attached to a Discuss post as well, for reference)

Chrome's version is now at 1.5.0 https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/iati-decipher/akignlamolglcjboilhajenkkkcnohjj

Firefox's version is still at 1.4.4 https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/iati-decipher/?src=search

That’s right – I wasn’t able to update the firefox addon. Just waiting on a fix: https://github.com/mozilla/addons/issues/1102

@JoshStanleyDevInit is the issue resolved for you (in Chrome) now? Thanks

[JoshStanleyDevInit]

@andylolz yep all good for me!

Note that I have referenced this issue in the Discuss post I just opened in case anyone else comes across the problem!

Thanks for your quick work on this Andy!!

[andylolz]

No problem. I’ll leave this open & assigned to me, so I remember to update the firefox plugin once the issue with mozilla sign-on is sorted.

Thanks for figuring out this was a decipher issue, and reporting it here.

v1.5.0 is now on the chrome webstore and mozilla add-on store, so I think this is fixed everywhere.

Thanks again for reporting this @JoshStanleyDevInit, and for adding the note to the discuss post.
