403 error while exporting donations: too long URL

[Genevieve-K]

As an administrator, I would like to export donations. For several sites, I get a 403 error. After investigation, I understand that it's due a URL containing too many characters. When we export all fields, the Javascripts window.location = t.url failed with an 403 error. If I uncheck some fields, the URL is shorter and the donation file is downloaded.

A idea: the label give_give_donations_export_option is used many times. It's difficult to change it because it is used by other plugins.Maybe change it to a short name before creating the URL?

I also have an error downloading donations. I suggest the PR 7417.

Interesting that the URL is too long. If I understand correctly, that would be a browser limitation issue, but I would expect the limit to be rather large.

How long is the URL?

Also, have you tried it in another browser?
