The export tool built into WordPress limits how you can export your data by giving you a restrictive UI and very few options. This plugin fixes that by adding a new export page with more flexible options through the cunning use of checkboxes (instead of radio buttons). By using “Export Plus” you can easily export any selection of post types filtered by author, date and status across all of them, not just the built-in ones.
See the plugin <a href="https://wordpress.org/plugins/export-plus/screenshots/" rel="ugc">screenshots</a> for the differences that “Export Plus” provides.
I originally submitted this as a <a href="https://core.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/27048" rel="nofollow ugc">patch</a> to WordPress Core, but it doesn’t look like it’s going to be added so I decided to release it as a plugin instead.

Sometimes, you run into a situation where you just need to manually run a script. The actual logic might be as simple as generating a csv from a query, or changing a user’s settings, or even just running a single line of SQL. WordPress makes this difficult.
There are many hacky solutions to the problem, but most of them lack security or are too difficult for anyone but a developer to run or just take too long to build. That’s where we come in.
WP Utility Script Runner lets you start with a simple 17 line template, add in your custom code, save to the server, and in minutes you have a secure, fully featured utility, that you can safely run from the WordPress dashboard.
But that’s not all! With a few extra lines of code, your utility can:
<ul>
<li>Accept user input</li>
<li>Accept file input</li>
<li>Run at a future date and time</li>
<li>Run on a recurring schedule</li>
<li>Run large tasks by breaking them up into several smaller tasks, and saving state.</li>
<li>Create reports and other output files</li>
</ul>

WP Utility Script Runner

Create custom scripts and manage them directly from the WordPress Dashboard. Schedule scripts, handle user input, download reports, and more.
