Thank you so much for your support, I really appreciate it.
So if the short code you mention above is the only one available for listing downloads, even with a pro version how would I show your “Call to action 4” example on https://try.wpdownloadmanager.com/ready-to-use-templates/ ?I need to know how I can show different download listings before I decide to upgrade to pro.

[wpdm_all_packages]shows a list of all downloads in tabular format in a page, you can’t define any template in this shortcode parameter. However, you can check other shortcodes here too, https://www.wpdownloadmanager.com/doc/short-codes/. Please kindly check and let me know.Thank you and regards

The template type is fine – I understand.
However how do I define what template I am going to use to list all my downloads?
For example I am currently using the following on my listing screen but it doesnt mention the listing layout template anywhere:[wpdm_all_packages login=0 thumb=1 items_per_page="20" jstable=1 order_by="field_name" order="ASC/DESC" cols="title,file_count,download_count|categories|update_date|download_link" colheads="Title|Categories|Update Date|Download::155px"]

Automatic updates of wpdownloadmanager are not working.
In help I found this page that shows how to allow the plugin to login to my wpdownloadmanager account:
https://www.wpdownloadmanager.com/doc/updating-download-manager-to-the-latest-version/#:~:text=And%20to%20enable%20automatic%20update%2C%20you%20need%20to%20login%20to%20your%20wpdownloadmanager.com%20fromHowever when I go to Admin Menu Downloads Settings Updates on our website I see a empty list of “Purchased add-ons” below “Check for updates” and “Logout” buttons. I have recently changed the wpdownloadmanager account password so I click “LOGOUT” but the page just reloads the same as it was; there’s no login page to enter the new password.
I performed a manual update by downloading the zip of 6.5.4 and updating via the “Upload plugin” interface, but this didn’t fix the problem.

In reply to: Search not working, based on Description of Package
Sure, but the search reveals ALL docs to ALL users – this is bad.
We are using this plugin because it allows us to assign downloads to users.
Search will bypass that… which is very very bad.In reply to: Search not working, based on Description of Package
Ok. So right now, there is absolutely no way for a client to login, and search for THEIR downloads, based on the Description, within the WP DL Manager plugin.
Only via the title of the package.
Just so we are clear. As I was originally told otherwise.Simon
In reply to: Search not working, based on Description of Package
Sure, but the Search shortcode you provided – if we use that, and give it to anyone, they can access ALL USERS downloads.

In reply to: Search not working, based on Description of Package
Can you please add it to our Downloads page, so I can see what you mean, as you do have access.
As I am confused.I know about the Allow Access option. But what do I put in there, so it allows access to all who are logged in?
Simon
In reply to: Search not working, based on Description of Package
Hi sorry can you please elaborate.
If you edit the page for downloads, you can see what code we have in there.
Are you saying that Shortcode can be tweaked so it CAN search in the Description – which is what I was told it could do in your livechat?And secondly, Within the Allow Access – are you saying there is no way right now with our paid account, to enable it so all who are logged in, can view certain Docs. IE. if the team wanted to make one Doc available to all clients – no way to do that?
In reply to: Search not working, based on Description of Package
I was told on the Livechat on here, that because we cannot search for File Names, we can simply put those file names in the Description, so users can search for it.
You are now saying, this is NOT possible. So if a client contacts them to say “I need that document called xxx, where do I find it”, they have no way to search for the file name, or any keyword. And if a Package has more than one file, it is totally impossible search for that filename.
That being said, if they are logged in, does the Default Search (top right of any page) let that search result find it? But NOT in the main Downloads screen?
It’s just so all over the place. And one doesn’t find out these things til we are using it.
No way to search for Filename.
And if that filename is listed in the Description, the Search in the Downloads screen, does not allow you to find the keyword added to the description.Oh boy.
Also, with regard to being able to enable a set file to be available in downloads to any logged in user – sorry we need to pay to be able to do that? Really?In reply to: Search not working, based on Description of Package
For now,
User Dashboard > My Downloadssection search option shall not work with keyword of package description, however, you can also keep a feature request here, https://www.wpdownloadmanager.com/support/forum/download-manager-pro-feature-request/.

Does this page come from the
Downloads > Categoriessection ? https://www.kennel-schmenger.net/downloads/studio-fall-winter-2024-25/ Or any shortcode. Please kindly check and let me know.Thank you and regards
In reply to: Search not working, based on Description of Package
Disregard our site’s main search please. That should not be showing any results from the Download Manager at all (tho it doesn’t matter, so long as it doesn’t show results NOW assigned to that user. That’s a security risk.
This is the search in the WP Download Manager Downloads area.

In reply to: Update changes affeting all my pdf files uploaded
Hello,
You have set all pdf to one folder and attach to the package. I will suggest you, please create new folder/folders for your PDFs, you can also categorized PDFs by folder naming, then attach as dir the folder to the package, thus I hope solve one of your issue. And enabling single file download not whole files, you may customize it by creating/cloning a template from
Downloads > Templatessection , then remove the main download template tag, keep only the [file_list] template, please kindly check the process and let me know, if it resolves your issue.Thank you and regards
In reply to: Update changes affeting all my pdf files uploaded
Hi
We have found out you can’t search by the file name, only the Package name or apparently the Description.
So our client has added a description with some specific terms.
But when you search in the Downloads screen for that word, nothing comes up. And the package is available to all.We know the Site Search can do it, but we need the Download Manager search to do it, and we were told it can.
Second question: if we want a package to be available to all who are logged in (not just “all visitors”), how do we apply that to the package?
Thanks.
Glad to hear that, the plugin is working fine 🤗
We have made a few changes, especially in the namespaces:
WPDM\__\Message, WPDM\__\DownloadStatsand few functions.If you find my assistance valuable, I would greatly appreciate your support with a 5-star review here: https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/download-manager/reviews/?rate=5#new-post , it will inspire us a lot.
Thank you 🤗
