Search Results for 'Add Url'

Actually, the point is, this is not an issue with the plugin, if you want multiple files to download together, wpdm create a zip file using attached files, but, to create zip all files need to be on the same server, that is how PHP zip function works. But in the case of remote URL, PHP zip function can’t add it, so in that case, the only solution is, modifying the code, to copy the remote files on the same server, then attach with zip. Regardless of the complexity of code modification, the total process will be the waste of server resources and there is no meaning of keeping files on remote server.

For stylish download button, please use this add-on:

WPDM Image Button

Give me your URL and temporary wp-admin login info in a private reply to check.

If you want to get email and name, you simply need to enable email lock option from add/edit package window.

For instead of using direct category URL, if you want to use ready templates, you need to create a page and insert category shortcode ( https://www.wpdownloadmanager.com/doc/short-codes/wpdm_category-query-all-downloads-from-one-or-more-categories/ ) on the page content.

Every feature wpdm pro offers explained here https://www.wpdownloadmanager.com/docsfor/download-manager-pro/,  as all the feature gives many possibilities, how exactly you want to use those will depend on your imagination and planning. But to do that, you at least need to go through all the docs and be familiar with all the features wpdm pro offers.

As far as I understand from your description, you need email lock or form lock and the category shortcode.

However, use following add-on to generate shortcode:

Advanced TinyMCE button

Still, don’t worry, we are here together with you to clear any of your confusion.

Button template already shows title on the button:

https://demo.wpdownloadmanager.com/wpdmpro/button-templates-add-on-free/

You can show a title linked to download as a button in following way:

<a href="[download_url]" class="btn btn-success btn-lg">[title]</a>

When a file is locked ( where you applied lock option like password, facebook, email or any other ) you need to use the same value for link label as the title.

You don’t need separate pages for project A and Project B. All your need to do is:

1. You create categories “Project A” and “Project B” from wp-admin
2. Create a page and add shortcode [wpdm_frontend flaturl=0] , say, page name is “Author Dashboard”
3. Now from Author Dashboard page, user each user can create packages, manage their packages and upload their files and from the file manager, they will be able to see and manage their own files only.
4. Now, when a user is uploading files for Project A, they need to go to Author Dashboard Add New, then enter and title, description (optional), then upload files and finally select category “Project A” like following image:
   https://www.evernote.com/l/AV1R9X4pjqJESbKqOiD85khDkd94CF-aexEB/image.png
5. You can review the files from wp-admin, included who uploaded and which project they are assigned to.
6. You also can show the files at front-end on a public page like this:
   https://demo.wpdownloadmanager.com/wpdmpro/package-list-in-responsive-table/

Please let me know if anything is not clear here.

Yes, had to add parameter flaturl=0 with short-code. ok now.

You can do it manually in this way:

<a href="//your-site-url/?wpdmdl=[ADD_FILE_ID]">[your custom button image or text]</a>

Or, use short-code:

[wpdm_package id="[ID]" template="link-template-button.php"]

And use the following add-on to add your custom button image:

WPDM Image Button

I adjusted the CSS code and added here:

If you still didn’t get your desired looks, please give me your URL where I can see the shortcode you using :).

Hi @Shaon
I’ll address the options one by one:

1) version (from download-manager.php) – “define(‘WPDM_Version’,’4.6.3′);” – is that sufficient proof I’m on latest version? if not let me know where to go search/what to get

2) curl not active – please see these proofs of viability:
– “in the clear” curl : https://www.homeownersmarketingservices.com/curlhttp.php
– SSL based curl: https://www.homeownersmarketingservices.com/curlhttps3.php
Both GET this url “www.wpdownloadmanager.com/terms-and-conditions” so you can see for yourself by trying them

3) server firewall blocking wpdownloadmanager.com – N/A
– I don’t have a firewall on this server, we have a firewall at the egress of our network aggregating traffic
– I can reach wpdownloadmanager.com from any computer on that network, including the server itself – isn’t that a proof?

4) license key applied in a site – I guess you mean another site..?
well, I just purchased, downloaded and tried to activate it – so unless you sold it twice… it’s the only use its ever seen
ALSO – TO REMIND YOU WHY I AM HERE – I had version 2.9 working fine, until one day I worked on the download dashboard and it said “license invalid” (which is another sign for you the change that broke it was not on my side..) – so I bought the latest in hope it will solve it

SO – what’s my next move?
send you my license key?

It seems like, the URL is coming from archive page add-on, however, we added “noindex” for next update.

Hello @dru77ster, I found all of your data is there, however, I adjusted license issue changing url from http to https for the license server, however, to update the plugin, it will be safe to do it using ftp without deleting current version. Here, after I install latest version and setup migration add, you will be able to migrate all data easily, but, after migration completed, as WPDM Pro v4 using custom post type, so after import, all package ID will be different. We had no way to keep IDs same. So you will have to change package shortcodes from anywhere you used to set proper package ids.

@charles-mcpadden,

License error may happen for following reason:

1. You are using older version ( < 4.6.3 )
2. cURL is not active on your server
3. Server firewall is blocking https://www.wpdownloadmanager.com
4. License key already applied in a site

If answers are “No” for all of the points above, the license will work just fine. Still, only 10 or fewer users in total were facing the issue due to the reasons mentioned above, which is less than 1% of our new user of any single day. However, we are taking care of every issue anyone having there, but you know, it is sometimes hard to find the reason without checking it where it is exactly happening.

So, as you are facing license issue, here are the steps to follow:

1. If you are not using latest version, please update, that resolved the license issue for all major users, who were facing license issue after moved license server from HTTP to https
2. If you are using the latest version and still facing license issue, please check if cURL is disabled or not working properly on your server.
3. Final steps is to check server firewall, of that is blocking wpdownloadmanager.com
4. But if you already applied key on a site and now trying to change the domain, you need to give me the key in a private reply to unlock it.
5. And if you can’t detect or decide what it is, you need to allow us to access your site to check the issue and adjust it, that is the regular way when customers need support, nothing unusual there, but we respect individuals decisions and privacy policy.

1. You need to add it from Admin Menu Downloads Settings Quick Forms tab  when you want to add with email lock:
   https://www.evernote.com/l/AV3wrZsVMM1JkIZDii4NFPzjoVOGgcl8SYsB/image.png
2. Please give me an URL to check
3. You need to do that by adding some css.

@joeldault, the license should work fine now.

@carl5243, ok now, problem was, curl was not working well on your server, however, I applied an alternative approach to adjust this. However, I also added it on my side for next update.

I tested URLs http://www.openresources.org/rescuing-ambition and http://www.openresources.org/like-a-diamond, downloads seems working fine.

Also tested individual download page http://www.openresources.org/download/out-of-darkness-week-1-audio, however, I’ve adjusted login message from settings and the page template to make it working.

Additionally, if you select only specific user roles for a package, then, user must login before download and only users under selected roles will be able to download the item, but if you want to allow everyone to download an item,  only select “All Visitors” for “Allow Access” field.

Please let me know if you need assistance anywhere else.
