SO – I found out that the trick is to go to Downloads > Settings from the WPAdmin screen and select Migrate. You should be able to bring previous packages into the new version. I did that, but they were all missing download icons. You will have to go in and assign icons manually. The downloads did not appear immediately in posts. I think the reason for that was because they were not immediately published. Just a heads-up for those who used previous versions of the plugin….
I’m pretty sure this is a script execution time issue, but wanted to check with you before submitting an issue with WP-Engine.
Here’s the error:

The second error is happening many times – any idea why something is trying to access the directory index of the formbuilder plugin?
Thanks,

PS – I’ll repost the login and ftp details in a private message
Hi
I’m using the shortcode [wpdm-all-packages], – (which looks very nice) Id like to change the action of the “Download” button at the end of each row to work the same way as the link on the filename. I gather from other posts I will have to edit wpdm-all-downloads.php. But I cant find this file in WordPress. Where is the file and what do I have to edit to make the link work.
Many Thanks
Well, I found that in my installation PDF Stampers works ONLY if I don’t use it with files uploaded through WPDownloadManager, but only if I add files through WP admin->Downloads->Add New->Add Attachment->Browse and selecting one of the PDF files that I loaded manually using FTP.
It is not a big issue, but I would like to know if you can suggest me how to solve (maybe a permission issue…).
I updated both WPDM and PDF Stampers, but now I get a blank page when I download PDFs…
Is there a way to make it work without going mad, please?
I don’t need installation, I only need that plugin will work as it should, please. I bought to use it, now also WPDM doesn’t work anymore because downloads are blank pages…
Before I spend another $22 on the payza plugin, I want to know WHY I need it. Payza has website integration, pay now buttons etc. I don’t know why I need to pay for the plugin when I can simply input my HTML button codes from payza for payments through them.
I need WPDM in order to manage and track downloads, but I don’t need it for a payment processor.
BUT Payza’s integration seems rather confusing, and I would have to make a return page from scratch. What I am wondering is this:
1. Will the buy now buttons from WPDM automatically change to payza buttons once I upload your payza plugin?
2. does your plugin support their ipn/epd integration?
3. Will WPDM work completely, without any coding errors (as I cannot code very well), with Payza?
4. Will the plugin create an alert url, return url, and cancel url automatically for me? Payza wants me to do it by hand and they are very vague about what to do.
Just want all the information possible before I buy it. Your description is very short.
1. I installed the stamper add-on you emailed me because I don’t see it in my downloads.. When I click on the button to download my order it goes to a white blank page, also causing a blank page after social locks are used. (all login info above will work if needed)
2. Are these the 3 files to edit so I can edit emails that are sent out to customers for orders? will they be over written every time I update??
not clear about the page template, everything should be there, may you please explain it little more.
Upload limit is from your server or wordpress, wpdm has nothing to do with that, as wpdm don’t apply any limit with upload file size.
sorry, not clear, may you please explain little more, btw, if you are taking about all downloads short-code, please use extra parameter jstable=1 for quick search option, we missed to add it with the add-on.
hello and thanks for reply, already update plugin, but I have a problem, When you select a category, not open “not show”, climbs to the top, type “scroll” instead of opening
Shortcode:
[wpdm-archive button_style=”danger” link_template=”link-template-panel” items_per_page=”10″ category=all-downloads” order_by=”field-name” order=”asc|desc”]
SOLVED
Edit: In “Twitter Bootstrap” I just had to have “Active”
I recently purchased advanced access control, but i’m having trouble with the [wpdm_my_downloads] short code, it only displays the most recent file attached to a user instead of a whole list. I’ve tried it on 2 sites one a new install with no other plug ins and using default themes. I have noticed that the page with the short code also suffers a few other problems, like missing admin bar and widgets when the shortcode is present.
the extra download link downloads all files in a single zip file and that is the actually main download link, the other download links are showing as you enabled individual download option, anyhow if you want to remove the full package download, edit/clone that template and remove [download_link] tag from there.
So lets take for example this link: http://teetoolkit.com/?wpdmdl=462 this is the URL that your plugin generates. It links to a file that is on Amazon S3, and its uploaded there with the add-on for your plugin. Now if you try to copy the above link in your browser you will be able to download the file. Which is not good, because I’ve added to the “Allow Access:” section of your plugin option that only Administrator and Subscriber can download that file. But as you can see here, that does not work.
Also MagicMembers are disabled so they are not interfering, I already tried this with the default theme and the result is the same. So please don’t tell me that this is because of MagicMembers or the theme. Because it is not. Something is wrong with your plugin and we want you to fix it, so we can make site go live.
I will not even go into the other problem – which is that the download counter isn’t working for S3 downloads. We’ll deal with that later, after the file protecting issue is fixed.
P.S – download counter and file protection works just fine if the file is hosted on our server, so that’s one more piece of evidence that nothing is wrong with MagicMembers or the theme. The problem is either in your plugin or in the S3 add-on to your plugin. Which ever the case may be, you have to fix it.
