I see your are using jstable=1
, sorting option with short-code will not work when js table is eanbled, but if you want to apply default sorting to date, please add "order":
2, "desc"
, after $('#wpdmmydls-<?php echo $tid; ?>').dataTable({
at wpdm-all-downloads.php
, or please make the file writable, I shall add that for you.
If you use [download_url] tag, you will not see any message, the tag only will work for public downloads, in protected/locked download you will have to use [download_link]
( < — this tag will generate complete link ) tag instead of <a href="[download_url]">[title]</a>
and you can setup message from download manager settings.
However, I also see there, link template you created in not actually correct, please give me temporary wp-admin login info, I’ll set this up there for you
#3 is doable but it will require some changed in code or need to write a new function.
Additional information from testing I’ve done today.
I uploaded a new file and it has better results, but not great.
When I click “download” the file actually downloads to my PC, however the screen “busy” graphic in the theme is displayed and never goes away (The theme is the Salient Theme from Elegant Themes) and the download count is incremented by 2 – it goes from 0 to 2 to 4, etc.
The original file that I updated May 14, still does not download at all.
Do all files have to be re-uploaded every time the plugin is upgraded?
Hi,
My website is still under development.I have around 170 packages. I have modified the template so that people download the packages from download buttons without the need to go to the download pages.
I find that the total number of downloads in the WordPress dashboard, and in the “all packages” posrtal suspiciously high.
i have posts with only 3 to 4 visits (i have “post views” plugin installed), but the package is downloaded 30 to 35 times.
so the number of downloads increase without the post getting visited.
can this be due to bots activities?
I have security plugins and follow strict security rules and high quality plugins and Avada theme. there is no hacking on hte server.
I don’t manually override the number and put a higher number!!
I tested the downloads and they are working properly, so the download count goes up by 1 when i download a package, but i am sure that the number of downloads is not right, otherwsie people will be downloading the packages without accessing the posts or the download pages !!
Any idea what might be happening?
Cheers,
Atef

How do I get a download list page with an image preview? Something like the “Popular Downloads” section of this page http://demo.wpdownloadmanager.com/wpdmpro/ but showing a preview of the download file (jpg or pdf).
Can you do this with [wpdm_tree] or [wpdm-all-packages]?
Hi seems we have a bigger problem, we have nearly 1000 files imported from another system. We have put permissions to restrict user groups at the category level, however by default when files are imported / added the files have All Visitor access. Therefore when we go to the /all-downloads/ page any user can download any file regardless of the permissions on the category level. Does that mean we have to update every single file? Is there a way around this? We really only want to control permissions on the category level.
Thanks
Thank you for all your help. Last question, the Editor role can’t see the Stats page for the file downloads. Is there a reason for this? How do I allow them to see statistics without having to give them administration access?
We just upgraded to v. 4.2.2 (actually 2.7.95 I think?) and now our individual downloads do not work from our download packages. The ZIP file can be downloaded fine, but when you click on an individual file you get an error “ERR_CONTENT_LENGTH_MISMATCH”.
I believe nearly this exact problem happened to us previously and you were able to do something to make it work again.
What is the short code to make view all downloads like this demo page?

Hi there,
This is my second installation of Download manager. The first worked exactly as desired. I’m running into the problems with the second. The problem is that the site doesn’t respect the Open in Browser checkbox in the settings. It downloads the pdf as a series of codes.
You can see what’s going on if you click on the download button on this page.

Hello, this plugin is the best.
I’m a week trying to understand why downloads of packages, 80%, are not completing.
Inidividual File Download is okay.
I already tried all the settings.
-Resumable Downloads
-Output Buffering
Can you help me?

Probably you also need to update /download-manager/tpls/wpdm-all-downloads.php ( attached )
This reply has been marked as private.
You can use your custom message like this:
[wpdm-all-packages items_per_page="20" jstable=1 order_by="title" order="ASC" no_data_msg="No Packages Found"]
But as I see in /tpls/wpdm-all-downloads.php, __('No Packages Found','wpdmpro');
should be in .po file.
I am working on setting up the theme I recently purchased and I have a few questions. I purchased the theme from Theme Forest, and comes with a lot of plugins and customized posts. I am able to favorite, like/dislike, etc. one every post; but I am unable to do so with the downloads. I also am using Visual Composer to setup my homepage, and I cant figure out how to add the most recent downloads I have added to the front page; like I did with my other posts. I am wondering is there any way I can set the downloads to function as a normal post type; so all of the plugins I have installed will function on the downloads page also, and so I am able to use visual composer to customize my website easily?
1. Probably you have to disable Twitter Bootstrap
from Downloads->Settings->Misc Settings
.
2. You have to customize download-manager->wpdm-all-downloads.php
file.
3. We need to check it in your installation. Please give us temporary wp-admin access via a private reply.
One thing, if you noticed on the same page on right sidebar, I’m calling similar template with ‘Top Downloads Widget’ on that sidebar and that is working (what I want to do with [wpdm-archive]). Can you please help?
I have a simply configuration. The most of Downloads I work with login user role. But for some downloads I want to give password access (sometimes instead and sometimes additionally if possible).
But don’t know how to configure.
When I try in frontend I get the “Access Denied” but no box for entering the password.
Thanks for help.

Is there any way to set up Download Manager to subscribe people to multiple specified MailChimp maillists via the API key?
At the moment, it seems that downloads of all packages are restricted to one maillist.
It would be helpful to know whether you can set up multiple separate subscriptions.

Added species, front-end want not working, because you didn’t setup front-end access from Admin Menu Downloads Settings Frontend ( Option name Allowed User Roles to Create Package From Front-end
), now it is working properly.
Actually download limit is working fine, but if you try downloading a package repeatedly in same session, it will be counted as 1. Additionally, daily download doesn’t control the downloads in membership area.
Hi Shaon,
thank you for your quick responce. So is this correct, I have two options:
A) ALL downloads – incl. Sub-Categories
B) Select Categories – but no sub Category will be shown.
Thank you
Chris
Nothing to save actually, it is in Admin Menu Downloads Subscribers Email Template
