We've recently pushed a pretty neat feature to EZ Exporter that allows our users to export orders, products, or customers directly from the Shopify Admin into a custom CSV file configured with EZ Exporter.

This was actually a feature request from one of our customers (thanks Garrett!) as he sometimes need to export just a few orders and it was nice to be able to select them from the Shopify Admin Orders page and then select which report template (configured …

We've recently pushed an update to EZ Exporter to include new filtering conditions for blank values.

In the Custom Filters section of the Data Settings, you will now see these two additional options:

• is blank

What's an MD5 hash?
