On my site, I’m using a Custom Permalink Structure for Posts to put /blog/ in front of all blog posts. E.g. Custom Structure =
/blog/%postname%/
But your wpdmpro Custom Post type is keeping that permalink structure for both Categories and Tags.
For example
Tags look like this: https://domain.com/blog/document-tag/biology/
Categories like this: https://domain.com/blog/downloads/bay-area-science-festival-basf/
I need those without the /blog/
If I were generating my own custom post types and custom taxonomies & tags, I would define “with_front = false”
Can you provide a snippet to change your taxonomy and tag structure?
Hi all,
I have a pro license and I have created 2 dummy packages containing 1 PDF download.
The packages are available to all.
When I either login as an administrator or a subscriber, into the dashboard I can see the packages but when I click on them all I get is the title of that package as a blank page? So In the dashboard I have displaying the last 5 history downloads and this is where you see the packages to download, click on them and blank. Or as the administrator of the site if I click on the permalink of that package, again just the title of that package and no files to download.
I have created a dashboard page with the shortcode – [wpdm_user_dashboard signup=1 flaturl=0] And it displays ok.
I have created a my-downloads page with the shortcode – [wpdm_all_packages login=1 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"] And this too works fine.
However, when I click on the package BTN it goes to /download/btn/ and just the title displays – nothing else.
I would really appriate a quick answer from support please – urgent client request.
Thank you
Hi,
I have two questions.
1. When I disable “Ask for billing address on checkout page” in the Premium Package Settings it does not work. The billing information still displays in the checkout page. I must use a child theme and customize checkout-billing-info.php. Is there a way to make this function work?
2. I am building a subscription-based site where 1,000’s of products will be available to subscribers. In the user’s Dashboard when you click on “My Downloads” under the Membership section it lists all products, however, with 1,000’s of products that feature is pretty useless as it is out of the box. How can I customize that option to display something different or simply remove that option from the menu?
Thank You
Hello. We’ve been using the download manager for many year, it was an older version I think 4 or something and it always worked great. We use it so clients can download updates for our program. Now I had to update to the latest version because the version we used kept saying invalid license key (eventhough it was the right one that we just renewed).
Now our downloads no longer work, we get “Invalid File Type (*.exe)!”.
Eventhough under settings – general I added .exe for allowed file extenstions and under frontend settings -Allowed File Types From Front-end: I also added .exe
Can this be resolved? Because the only reason we’re using this download manager is to upload and download .exe files.
Also when I try to make a new package and I just a file to upload, or choose a .exe file from the server it shows up added to the package but then when I click publish or update it removes the file.
When you click on the download, a critical error appears in all the downloads generated.
Maybe a stupid question. Under package – pricing and discounts there is an option for “Assign Role”. It forces the selection of a user role, even when importing packages it auto-assigns a role. There isn’t an option for NONE or NO ROLE. I’m thinking this came from the installation of “WPDM – Advanced Access Control” that I installed when trying to limit access to products for non-logged in users.
Will the auto-selection of a user role interfere with membership downloads where members get a 100% discount on package downloads?
Must a user role be assigned to the same user role of a regular non-member customer in order for them to purchase and download a package?
What are the scenarios where this Assigned Role is either valid or invalid since it can’t be set to None?
Thanks for your most excellent support.
I just updated the plugin to 6.4, and this shortcode is no longer working:
[wpdm_all_packages jstable=1 cols="page_link,file_count|categories|download_link" colheads="Title|Categories|Download"] – had no issues on 6.3.6.
I have my site set so that downloads are only available to logged in users – if you visit https://wptest.wprnd.net/downloads-index while NOT logged in, you can see one download in the list. This download allows access to all visitors. All others are limited to certain user roles, and are not displayed. However, when I am logged in, no downloads are listed (should be a large list, plus the one w/ access to all visitors).
All was fine on 6.3.6. Please let me know if you have questions, or when an update is released. Tks
Hello,
We have just updated the theme within our WordPress site. However, after updating the theme some of the downloads have stopped working. However, other downloads from the same location work as expected. It just seems some of the downloads have corrupt as the download page does not load. However, when you click edit package the download shows as attached with the ID number.
Is there any resolution for this without having to manually upload the broken downloads again?
Many thanks,
Owen
I have a password-protected freebie library where I display the free downloads on my site. I formatted a link and used that link in the category tree widget to create a grid of the freebie category. It is 3 columns, and recently the formatting has been placing the first package correctly in the first column and then adding all the rest of the packages on the page into the 2nd column. I can see from inspecting the page that it appears to be missing some </div> tags. This is new, as it used to display correctly. It also displays correctly on the back end of the wordpress editor and displays correctly on page 2 of the cateogry tree.
I have tried replacing the category tree with the package list and the problem persists.
I will send the login information as well as the password for the protected page in the next comment. Please help.
I have a set up that’s not working on Chrome but works in Safari. I will post a link to the example privately.
There are multiple pages using this code and all of them are broken in Chrome (see side menu on page to navigate between them).
Page shortcode:
[wpdm_category id="meat" operator="IN" title="1" desc="1" toolbar="0" paging="1" orderby="field name" order="asc" items_per_page="50" template="card_preview_link__single_downloads" cols=1 colspad=1 colsphone=1 async=1]
Template code:
<div class=”link-template-default card mb-2″> <div class=”card-body”> <div><h3>[file_list]</h3></div> <p>[description]</p> </div> </div>
My download counter showing unusually high downloads over last two weeks. Usual is 1000 downloads a week, now have had over 25000 in two weeks. I would like to believe that it is accurate but want to confirm it. http://Www.PastorVicsNuggets.com.
Hello I was able to make all my files to display only to subscribers and admin, download button changes to a login button, that’s great! But I would like to know how to force an user to register when they arrive to any page on my site. Is there a short code or pop up modal that I can use to accomplish this?
Simple terms, user navigates to a certain page where product downloads live, once they arrive to page pop up appears to register if they are not signed in already?
Thank you in advance!
