I wish to export selected contacts based on advanced search however entire database of contacts are exported.

I search for all contacts in a group - get 933 - then do advanced search and select a custom field ( pay by Direct Debit) and do a further search. 501 contacts found as expected. However, when I select all 501 and do an export - map fields - and then export - every contact in database exported (over 1400). Is this a bug or something I am doing wrong?

Any help you can give much appreciated.

Thanks for the reminder to do that. My settings are in my profile but fore ease of reference copied below.

CiviCRM: 3.1.5
CMS: Joomla 1.5.17
MySQL: 5.0.51a
PHP: 5.2.4

Yes, I can replicate on sandbox site. Shall i give precise details? I performed the search and sort described above.

Ok

go to http://joomla.demo.civicrm.org/administrator/

Civi - Search Find Contacts - 

choose newsletter subsrciber group any tag - get 23 results - Click Advanced search - Go to Custom Field - click Social Justice - Get 1 result -

I then select more actions - Export Contacts - I would expect to only get a csv of one row.

However - I get 117 indivudals downloaded.

I have tried to replicate on demo but did not getting luck.

Could you please try to replicate on our public demo site : http://joomla.demo.civicrm.org/
and give exact steps to replicate.

thanks
