Hi there!
Anytime i migrate a WP-Site (e.g. from staging.domain.com to newdomain.com) half of the files are not there anymore, error: “no files attached”. So i have to manually attach each download again. I did WP-Site migrations many times already, i never had those kind of issunes with a plugin.
Plese check (files at the bottom of the page): https://schule-regensberg.ch/downloads/
Any ideas?
Many thanks!
Topic: Direct download
Hi everyone.
My download button works ok on the page where I want to offer downloads.
But when I click on this button, a pop up window appears, I tick that I accept the Terms of service, then put the password that I have set up and eventually also click the captcha (I’am human).
Then the page refreshs and I see a nice green button in the popup window saying DOWNLOAD but the problem is that the download already begins without even having to push this download button!
I’d like the download to be effective ONLY if we push the Download button.
Can you help me?
Thanks in advanceHi
We want to view all downloads assigned to a given user, so that we can filter them, and maybe edit them, or see if one download package is missing.How do we do this please?
I don’t see it in the Packages > Downloads, a Filter by User.hope you can help.

Visitors of the site are not able to download files via the download manager form. Neither am I or other admins. We are all greeted with a “permission denied .txt file for any file that we attempt to download or view.
Topic: Change Tags URL Base
I see in the URL Structure (first box on Downloads > Settings > General) allows the altering of the package and category URL base, but I would like to update the tags URL base. Is there a way to do that?
Hello,
Is there any shortcode available to display a single dynamic counter of Total number of Downloads combined of all items from entire WP Download Manager ?If using the “file cart add-on” with “form lock” (in our case contact form 7) it is not possible to see who downloaded what. In our case we want to see the data that the user filled out in the form (name, e-mail, terms of use) and the files they downloaded. It is possible to send an E-Mail Notification via Contact form 7 with all the data to our admin but the files that have been downloaded are not shown there.
Our File Cart with Form Lock
https://tinyurl.com/2bhx5rk8Hi,
trying to integrate the wpdm-form-lock to my downloads. But after i filled the form (liveform 4.74) it gets stuck – i see an ajax error with message: “is_file(): File name is longer than the maximum allowed path length on this platform (4096)”.
Please contact me for support.
ThanksI’m posting this comment to help those who may encounter the same issues I did using WPDM (free or pro) on an OVH mutualized hosting and WP-Rocket as a caching plugin. If it can save someone from wasting hours like I did…
Problem description: when clicking on the “download” button in WPDM documents page, the file download starts but stops and ends in failure.
Cause: the Gzip rules added by WP-Rocket to the htaccess file are incompatible with those of OVH. In some cases, this doesn’t cause any visible problems, but if you install WPDM, downloads don’t work.
Resolution: install the “WP Rocket | Remove GZIP (mod_deflate) rules” plugin proposed by WP-Rocket on this URL : https://docs.wp-rocket.me/article/1790-erreur-blank-response-from-server-ovh-locotranslate page.
They offer this solution for Locotranslate, but it also covers the WP-ROCKET/OVH problem.
Hope that helps !
Hi,
I have had a message from my client saying not all downloads are being recorded.
Can you please urgently look at this – we identified it firstly with Matthew Haddon but there are definitely others including Lucy Wilcox who dowload lots of files but the website is showing nothing (in fact I would say that if a member is not showing any downloads then this is in correct; everyone of our members have definitely downloaded something), as without accurate stats data I am unable to see trends or abuse of the files which is really important for us.
Also when I tried to update the plugin I received the following error –
Update failed: The package could not be installed. PCLZIP_ERR_BAD_FORMAT (-10) : Unable to find End of Central Dir Record signatureLooking forward to your response
I have a website that was built on WordPress and we used download manager to manage the downloads of documents on the website. But now we migrated our website to another hosting platform, but after this switch we can see all our packages but the documents in the packages are no longer downloadable. We are getting an error “saying file not found”. How can this be resolved as we need those documents
Hi,
we develop our projects under a temporary development URL (http) before they go online under their final domain name. During the development phase, downloads are created via “Select from media library” and work flawlessly. As soon as the project goes online and the live URL is defined for the WordPress and website address (https), everything works fine… except for all previously defined downloads, whose URL still refers to the previously used development URL. Logically, visitors then receive a security warning. In short: the newly defined URL is not taken into account for the created downloads. Am I missing something? What should I do? In the past, it was sufficient to recreate the downloads manually, but a current website in the development stage already has 450 previously created downloads…
Thank you very much for hints!
