Man, setting up this plugin is probably one of the most complicated plugins I’ve used before. When entering in any shortcode to my downloads page, all I get it some generic title: wdpmpro
All I want to to do is get all of my categories to show like in the demo, but it’s proving super difficult to do.
I have a membership site that is offering downloads.
Each package has multiple files and a user downloads all at once and the plugin is arhiving them.
And the cache is occupied with that archvies, I can’t stay each day deleting the cache. Is there a setting to empty cache?
I’m working on sorting by date.
I must add a columm named date to the tabel “ahm_files”.
The plugin must only write the date of all new Downloads to the database.
And there you are.
The mysql command must be “order by date asc”
It’s a lot of work.
Thank you for replying.

The solution was downloading and installing an update the form builder plugin. The availability of this update, however, did not show on my plugins page.
There is another problem presenting itself. When I assign a form lock to two of my downloads. Only the first on the page will work correctly. The second one redirects to a blank page with a download link after the form is submitted.
Another thing is, I don’t get an email with the form’s data. I do have ticked that box in the form builder.
This is the website i’ve developed: http://www.cashmatic.it/download/
You can see 4 “public” downloads, listed with the wpdm-archive shortcode (we’re now deciding between this and wpdm-all-packages shortcode).
The next step is adding some “reserved” downloads, for registered users (we’re deciding too if the users must be “simple” registered or with a custom user role). So… can you explain me, please, the steps i must follow for reach my target?
The idea: private downloads don’t displays the “Download” link but displays something like “Login”
When the user clicks on the “Login” link he can login or register himself
Thank you
if you are using nextgen gallery, please add following code at the end of download-manager.php, that will resolve the conflict with nextgen gallery:
function wpdm_skip_ngg_resource_manager($r){
return false;
}
add_filter('run_ngg_resource_manager', 'wpdm_skip_ngg_resource_manager');
We have had a issue now which was brought to our attention last week.
We have WP Download Manager Pro on our website http://www.apreco.co.uk and up until recently all was fine.
Now all the downloads finish are open in Adobe reader as corrupt.
We have been on to our webhosting company who assure us nothing has changed there end.
I have disabled all the other plugins and still the issue remains.
sorry, actually previous and text text is in .js/jquery.dataTables.js, any to change the text, please open wpdm-all-downloads.php
replace ( line# 142 ~ 145 ) :
var dtable = jQuery('#wpdmmydls').dataTable( {
"sDom": "<'row-fluid'<'span6'l><'span6'f>r>t<'row'<'span6'i><'span6'p ",
"sPaginationType": "bootstrap"
} );
with:
var dtable = jQuery('#wpdmmydls').dataTable( {
"sDom": "<'row-fluid'<'span6'l><'span6'f>r>t<'row'<'span6'i><'span6'p ",
"sPaginationType": "bootstrap",
"oLanguage": {
"oPaginate": {
"sFirst": "First page", // This is the link to the first page
"sPrevious": "Previous page", // This is the link to the previous page
"sNext": "Next page", // This is the link to the next page
"sLast": "Last page" // This is the link to the last page
}
}
} );
and for this: http://demo.wpdownloadmanager.com/wpdmpro/
you will need wpdm directory add-on ( http://www.wpdownloadmanager.com/download/wpdm-directory-add-on/ ).
Any response? My downloads are broken!
An update: I’ve tried changing the URL base urls, the 404’s still persist.
Current Settings:
PDM Category URL Base: downloads
WPDM Package URL Base: download
TEST Settings:
PDM Category URL Base: downloads22
WPDM Package URL Base: download22
Urls changed, but still showed 404 error.
So, I don’t think this issue is related to URL base conflicts.
Thanks for any help you can provide.
The download manager was working well for my client for many months, then yesterday they reported all package download pages showing a 404 error.
Here is a link to the downloads page and you can test individual download details pages: http://www.redwoodhill.com/download-center/
How should I problem solve this issue?
I’m running Version 3.3.8 and WordPress 3.6.1.
Hi!
How can I translate the search bar “All Files” in the Archive as well as the headlines for sibgle Downloads (“File”). The strings are not shown in po-edit or code styling!
Thanks a lot!
Ok, understood. In fact, i have no page with “downloads” slug. Only the WPDM category base is “downloads”
But… if i connect to http://www.cashmatic.it/downloads/ (that is the WPDM category URL base) i get a “strange” page: http://www.cashmatic.it/wpdmpro/wpdmpro/ that i think has no sense.
So, let me understand… if i want a “download page”, with all the available downloads, i must create a page and insert on it the shortcode for the Archive Page plugin? Like the http://www.cashmatic.it/downloadpage example?
Only one thing: for testing, yesteray i0ve modified my downloadpage slug, that now is /downloadpage and that its not linked in the menu
So, the menu points to /downloads, that is the WPDMPro slug. The “real” download page, with archive page plugin, is /downloadpage and you have to type the address manually.
Thanks
Thank you!
Unfortunately, there is now below two superfluous character list and I would like to know in which file (that line) I can “Previous” and “Next” translated into German.

I have installed the module “costum fields”. It causes an error message every time the download page. This message is then on each page where a download link is involved. Writes the message before the text of a page. Two links are involved, the message appears twice.
Warning: Invalid argument supplied for foreach() in /www/htdocs/w00bf97e/tanzforum/wp-content/plugins/wpdm-custom-fields/wpdm-custom-fields.php on line 56
I had to disable the module.
I have also always in the back a message at the bottom of the page:
Warning: [function.file-put-contents]: failed to open stream: Permission denied in / www/htdocs/w00bf97e/tanzforum/wp-content/plugins/download-manager/wpdm.php on line 768
After I played an older version of my WordPress database works now the download . However, it works with shortcode ” [ WPDM -all -packages ] ” inserted menu only inadequate.
In your example ( http://demo.wpdownloadmanager.com/wpdmpro/all-downloads/ ) can adjust everything properly , with me not fit the layout of the selection field for the number of files to display is covered by the category selection ( I have something corrected by css ) but selecting the number of files can not choose yourself .
Also, I can only very poorly through the pages because the previous and next buttons to migrate from the layout.
See here: http://www.tanzforum-dessau.de/service-tanzforum-dessau/downloads/
I can also lock any files by password, because I can not enter the password in the frontend. See here: http://www.tanzforum-dessau.de/download/test/
So I could use some help. It’s also a bit uncomfortable that I can not turn off comments in the downloads . It would also be good, “current” to provide files with a status given to them when to switch inactive.
best regards
yosh

I’m developing a website that now is on http://cash.cashmatic.it (but tomorrow night it will be on http://www.cashmatic.it)
I’ve installed WPDMPro and i’ve set in the Preferences “downloads” as WPDM Category URL Base
Next i’ve created a custom link in my menu that points to “/downloads/”
But when i click on Download menu, i obtain this page: http://cash.cashmatic.it/wpdmpro/wpdmpro/
I’ve created some packages and some categories (ie: http://cash.cashmatic.it/downloads/brochures/ ) but in the download pag i obtain only that unknow wpdmpro package ๐
Where’s the mistake?
Please help
I also have the same problem with infotjidk
This problem was arises after using wpdm pro. During Free installation, my download was running very well an get 0KB after using pro license.
Already sent you the temporary admin access to support@wpdownloadmanager.com
please recommend
I have hundreds of files that I need to upload, and I do not want them all in one package. I want them all to be separate downloads. So how can I batch upload all of my hundreds of files? I can’t find any documentation on this.
This problem is not only for zip files – it is for all files including packages containing only one file (.pdf)
– I need to check it in your site, please send a temporary wp-admin login info to support@wpdownloadmanager.com
– need to edit code at wpdm-all-downloads.php
I also have this problem, if i deaktivate nextgengallery my downloads ok, by aktivate nextgengallery the downloads have 0Kb !!
I have the download manager 3.3.8 and when i try to download a PDF – the PDF is corrupt and won’t open. If NextGen Gallery is disabled, the plugin works great. When NextGen is active the PDF download is zero bytes (adobe says it’s corrupt). If NextGen is deactivated the PDF downloads properly. what can I do to solve my problem?
On a previously working site, the form that opens appears to be underneath the masking layer and visitors can no longer download the packages. This is is the same problem as reported here.
This can be seen live at http://ohs.us.com/resources/downloads/
