If you are using category shortcode, no option available there to filter packages by category. You can just show packages from one or more categories. All packages shortcode has category filtering option.
I insert one download and I check all was fine. But today, Don’t work. In the index if you go to the widget and click you just see code. If yo go to downloads page you see code. If you go to the download page single works in several pcs, but fail on others. And from the download page single the widget work in several pcs too but fail on others. I use Google Chrome. These are the urls for reference:
We have purchased WP Download Manager Pro, and have also purchased the WPDM Archive add-on that allow us to use the Advanced Search. When we deployed our work to our production website today, the Advanced Search no longer works. These are the errors:
– The calendar does not work.
– The sliders on the view count and package size do not appear.
– The categories are missing.
– The sort order doesn’t work.
I have tried the following and the problems persist:
– I made a new page, and used TinyMCE to insert another Advanced Search.
– I deactivated and then activated each of the WPDM plugins.
Hello,
I bought the pro version there is a week to use the Email Lock for control the data sheets downloads on my woocommerce website.
I made a download test with the Email Lock on your demo website and it worked perfectly but when I tried to do it on my own website it didn’t worked at all.
First there is no text area to fill with the name and the email and then when I click on the download link the page is just going up without doing anything else.
by adding the above code, it only downloads the manually uploaded packages with the title. However if we import using csv file, it does not applies on that, it gets downloaded by the file name itself instated if package title. by checking we found that when we upload a package manually the there is a section where where it shows the pdf file name, however by importing by csv its does not shows the filename there. Or may be any other issue would be there. Can you please help us identifying the issue.
I can’t find how to show all categories and downloads in a downloads page. I mean something like an indes from all downloads born (misite.com/downloads).
I tryed creating a page and adding the next shortcode but i receive a 404 error:
[wpdm_all_packages]
Could you help me please? Should I add this new page to any place on settings?
This demo page is coming from the Crypton theme. We applied link template panel there in a customized layout. So, in your shortcode, you can use link template panel.
Insert your shortcodes using TinyMCE add-on. It has intuitive UI and you don’t have to memorize shortcodes.
I have just upgraded a website and now all of the downloads have become visible without logging in, I have a test site that I can show you an example of, any ideas ?
I recently bought the pro version of Download Manager. There are a couple of things I need to know.
Firstly, the plugin is sending No Cache headers due to which Varnish cache is not working on my website. Kindly help me resolve the issue. If these are necessary for the plugin to work efficiently then please tell me how to exclude posts from this issue as it is slowing down my other content.
Secondly, kindly guide me on how to create a Products page for my customers. From my understanding I need to create a page and then insert shortcodes of all the downloads on that page. Can I use one shortcode for all my products and specify the template to display them in a particular manner on the page or due I need to do this individually.
When a user downloads a file we are asking them to input their name and email. We would also like to capture the URL of the page that as a hidden form.
For example if we have a [brochure X] download which sits on http://www.company.com/product and a user completes [name = John Smith] and [email =john@smith.com] and clicks the download brochure button,
I want the following details to be captured:
Name – John Smith (user entered)
Email – john@smith.com (user entered)
URL – http://www.company.com/product (hidden and captured behind the scenes)
File downloaded – [=brochure x] (hidden and captured behind the scenes)
We also need to pass all this info through to MailChimp
“each package is attached to a category etc and that should be included in the download information so users can see the most popular category”
I second that. Also there should be widget support for it. So we can place the most popular downloads for the mentioned category page. Not overall downloads. There are some easy things you can make for this plugin even greater. Just listen to your users.
Hi guys, just following this up. This really is missing what I believe to be core functionality. Both your setting>subscribers and settings>stats should include these columns with at least the Category and Author Fields included.
The ability for users to understand what category is the most popular or which Author has had the most downloads shouldn’t require custom work!!!
If you can’t include it as core functionality at the bare minimum it should be an additional Add-on. I would happily purchase it and I suspect many of your other users would as well. And obviously if it is being captured then that information should also be available to MailChimp Add-on as again it will enable users to customise automated marketing to customers depending on what package was downloaded.
For example if you know a user downloaded something from a particular user you could then follow up with an email to them offering further books by that author.
I hope you see the logic and do the right thing as otherwise this whole Plugin is pretty much useless for me 🙁
Favorite downloads are listed in users public profile page /profile/?profile=userid. We will soon add the list in user’s dashboard.
Please check add-on page info to understand add-on features.
Page Template add-on allows you to use your theme’s page template on the download details page. This is useful when you are trying to control sidebar on the download details page.
Yes, it is possible to use feature image in link template. Create a custom link template and use thumb template tag there with the desired size.
Please create new topics for new issues to relate topic title with the issue.
Did you check the Downloads Stats Download History Tab? It does contain a log of all downloads where you can easily check last months downloads. This log is sorted chronologically. So it is easy to check last months downloads.
I’m getting a 404 page not found error when trying to upload or edit downloads. It’s not the theme because I switched themes to twenty 15 and it still didn’t work. The web site is on wp engine. I deactivate all plugins except for download manager. Would you have any idea why im getting the “404 page not found” error?
