I'm getting this error when I try to export using the FindMyPast destination:

[string "C:\ProgramData\Calico Pie\Family Historian\Pl..."]:757: directory parameter is missing or empty
stack traceback:

[string "C:\ProgramData\Calico Pie\Family Historian\Pl..."] in main chunk

I can run the (ANC) Ancestry option without getting an error.

Sorry John.
That problem was discussed recently in the groups.io Email forum.

The workaround for this problem is to create a folder called ZipFMP inside your chosen Export Folder.
If using the default setting then that will be within the Project folder at \Public\Export\ZipFMP

The fault will be fixed in the next published version of the plugin.

Export Gedcom File plugin Version 5.1 Date 24 Nov 2022 is now in the Plugin Store.

It fixes the ZipFMP folder problem discussed here.
