I was using free version. I moved my website host, and in my new host I purchased pro version. I deleted the free one and installed pro.
Then I tried to create a new package and attach a file, none of the options (upload-browse-Url) works in attach file section. Could you help me ?Topic: Dropbox download issue
Hi there,
Using the dropbox add-on I would like the ability for dropbox hosted files to be downloaded directly rather than open and play in the browser. I saw in another forum thread #26751 http://www.wpdownloadmanager.com/support/topic/dropbox-issues/#post-26751 that “download or play will depends on dropbox, nothing to do from wpdm”. I found this dropbox article https://www.dropbox.com/en/help/201 about forcing a file to download by adding ?dl-1 to the url. But as the wpdm’s UI options stands I see no way of being able to make this change. Is there a way to add this to a file url somehow in the download manager options?
Another solution to this issue could be to use a php hook. I am wondering if there is a way to add internal php hooks like the web hooks add-on that would allow us to call a function when a file is downloaded?
thanks
Hello Shaon,
Since I bought WPDM 2 years ago, I have this problem but never talked about it because, if didn’t had the time to tell you or to search about it, I didn’t think of it.
This means the issue is there for a long time. And as I have at least 50 new package to add, I would be interested to find a fixture for it.When I upload a file to a package by dropping or by selecting a file from my computer, wpdm upload the file and store it to the download-manager-files directory in “uploads” dir. The thing is the url/link generated shown in “Attached file” frame will be something like “1426002156my-file.zip” in place of something more like this : “/home/www/b31ce591a875c260a6b5327f3d514bb8/web/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/download-manager-files/my-file.zip”.
What I do until now is to upload the file like explain, then remove the attached file from the “Attached files” frame, then reattach file by browsing to the uploads/download-manager-files folder. (a pain in the a..)What can I do to fix this issue?
Topic: WPDM and WPML
Hello,
We have a site with French and English pages. We have a Resources page that is translated in french and english and put the WPDM to show the correct category (Fr or En) depening on which language you are on.
When clicking on one of the categories, since the base url is the same (/downloads in this case) it always reverts the site back to english. Is there a way around this on the base url side? Or will I need to add logic to when it ouputs the category links to add /fr/ to the url when you click on a category?
Topic: File from URL not displaying
We have files hosted on a CDN and need to “upload” files to wpdm as URL’s. This is clearly shown in the demo site but once installing then adding the license key on our wp install we cannot see the option to publish a file from URL. We only see from file or browse tab.
Hello Shaon!
Dig your plugin. I’ve spent the last few hours moving most of my public downloads to an Amazon S3 bucket and linking those files as remote URLs in WPDM (sweet feature, btw).
I’m curious how I can force PDFs to download or open in a new tab rather than target=”_blank” behavior. This is inconvenient for my users. I’ve played with download templates but of course, the [download_link] shortcode contains the <a href= so I cannot edit this and add a new target property to my custom templates.
An example of where I would like to do this is here: https://qcgroup.com/inspection/iso-accreditation/
Please advise. How can I force remote PDFs to download directly or open in a new tab?
Regards,

Topic: Hide URLs
Hello,
I am facing an issue where it is possible to view the original file location. If you go to Chrome/Downloads, you can see the exact URL where the file is stored. I am adding remote URLs to each package, rather than uploading files.
The download URLs entered do look like http://www.domain.com/?wpdmdl=16968 for example, but they don’t look like this in the download history.
How can I fix this?
Kind regards
