still have not heard back from support via email. please help – i’m still having the same problem. when i click to tweet for download, nothing is downloaded & i get a 404. site has been down for days now – got to get this fixed asap. thanks again!!!
Thanks, Shaon. I’ve created the link template with your above code and called it ‘File List’. It has the ID of 52f0b563f3d46.
Next I went into the package and changed the link template to ‘File List’. The problem is when I update the page/package, the link template reverts back to ‘with MP3 preview’. I can switch to any of the other templates, but not ‘File List’ that I created.
I checked on the page where I want the file list to appear and it just displays ’52f0b563f3d46′.
Any ideas where I’m going wrong? I’m using v4.0.3 of the plugin.
EDIT
The only way I could get it working was to create a new link template in \plugins\download-manager\templates. But I’m guessing this will disappear with each update?
Seems like this has occurred since the upgrade on my free version and something to do with the plugin “Better WP Security” – I have deactivated the security plugin and the downloads are now working. Any help on making these two work together as they did before would be appreciated.
thanks for getting back. still having the same issue. please see email. thx!

Shaon,
I have done the update but now I have lost all my downloads. http://www.shopfloorautomations.com/support/predator-software-support/
I am still having trouble with custom templates.
The ones I create will not work at all now.
and if I pick them and do an update on the download package it defaults back to the “With MP3 Preview”
I even tried to Delete them an add them back in and still the same problem.
I have email you login info if you would like to login
Thank you for you time
please send temporary wp-admin login info to support@wpdownloadmanager.com, we will do that for you.
my wp install is in a subdirectory, so i tried the fix noted here, but it did not work. thanks for your help!
“if you have 2 different url for site url and home url , such issue may happen, in that case, need to replaec site_url with home_url from modules/canonical-url.php”
http://www.wpdownloadmanager.com/support/topic/urls-incorrect-with-subdirectory-installation/
just noticed this. my users are complaining. seemed to work fine before & I don’t think I changed anything. please let me know how I can fix this – thank you!
I deleted the older version 4.0 and there’s no other download manager plugin installed. I tried to install 4.01 and it failed. Next I tried uploading the 4.01 folder via ftp. It appears in the plugin list, but it will NOT activate. At this point I have no downloads – nothing. Need help.
if you need nextgen active, you can apply the patch here http://www.wpdownloadmanager.com/support/topic/0kb-download-process-php-next-gen-gallery/
may you please explain your icon issue with a url please.
I deactivated the updated plugins but it made no difference. Then I was reading the support forums and saw a post about conflicts with NextGen Gallery so I deactivated that plugin and the downloads are working again!! That plugin has caused so many problems for us, I’m just getting rid of it altogether now.
The icons still are not showing though. Any tips on why? I’m using a custom template that looks like so:
<div class="span6"
<div class="thumbnail"
<div class="media"
[thumb_60x60]
<div class="media-body"
[download_link btn btn-success] i style=”margin: 2px 0 0 5px;opacity:0.5″ class=”icon icon-th-large” > [file_size]
</div
</div
</div
</div
The html is not broken like is here, i had to write like this for it to appear…..
Hi,
Today I was uploading new files to our site and noticed that the icons aren’t showing anymore. When I tested a download it says the file cannot be opened because it has been corrupted (for both PDF and Excel file types). This was working for us fine when I made uploads about a week ago. For some reason now it stopped working.
Does this have anything to do with the auto update that WordPress ran recently? That’s the only thing I can think of that’s changed really…other than a couple of plugins that were updated today (WordPress SEO, Google Analytics for WordPress, and Display Widgets).
See here for example: http://www.fashioncapsule.ca/shoppers/lookbooks/
We have files that are password protected on other pages which are really important for the fashion season coming up very soon. Will updating the plugin help, or will it make it worse?
Thanks!
Shaon,
I went to my downloads section and downloaded the 4.0.0. When installing the plugin it still shows up as RC2. Can you please send me a link to the new version?
I am suppose to launch a website tomorrow and needed a robust plugin to manage downloads. After using the the Free version of WP Downloads Manager I was happy with the plugin. I purchased the pro plugin because of the things it claimed to do.
It is a much worse experience than the free plugin. I can not find a single template that will properly display my download link.
I have had to use multiple plugins to achieve similar functionality to the free plugin, such as the Tiny MCE Button plugin, which even after install is not half as robust as the free version. Without this I will have to go into each package and change the template without the advantage of using the shortcode in my product admin page.
I am very unhappy. I have spent valuable hours and $45 on a plugin that is not ready for market. I am very unhappy with this plugin.
The only advantage I have seen is the ability to download multiple downloads. Now that they are downloaded I can’t make a format work to display them properly. I am very frustrated. In all the years I’ve been working with WordPress I’ve never been this unhappy with a plugin experience.
Is it possible to display the total amount of available downloads in a widget or a post? The total amount is shown under All Packages in the admin area so I assume it can be done on the frontend as well?
Thanks in advance.
I’ve created a test package containing two files. I want a post to show the download links to all files in the test package without linking to a separate download page. How can I do this?
I have been using DMpro for quite some time and have been happy. However, I recently updated the plugin. Now the individual file download option is corrupting this files. If I download the entire “package” as a zip, I can still open all the files just fine. It is just the individual file download that is having issues.
did you change anything in code? as [wpdm-all-packages] is completely functional ( http://demo.wpdownloadmanager.com/wpdmpro/all-downloads/ ) , anyhow please send a temporary wp-admin login info to support@wpdownloadmanager.com to check your issue
