Topic: Download snapshot versioning
I’d like users to be able to download the latest version of a product they owned at the time their access to it expires, regardless if their access expired or not. In other words, users access expires at version 1.1, then version 1.2 is released. User should still have access to version 1.1, but not have access to v1.2.
Currently, I believe a only solution for this is to:
– 1. Use unique attached files for each version update
– 2. Store the version info / ids of the files against the user account meta with each version update if the user’s access hasn’t ended. If it has ended, don’t store info against their accounts.
– 3. Before allowing access to a download, check what versions the user has access to and display only the versions they have access to by checking the meta data stored against their user account.I believe this solution will work, but I’m not sure if updating meta for each user’s account each time their is a product update is an efficient solution if there are many users. Maybe not a huge issue, but seems a bit hacky.
Is there a better way about it or something built in I’ve missed? I know there is version/date for a file that’s attached, but changing that and granting access only to that version if their account has access would mean they wouldn’t be able to access previous versions they owned at the time their account expired. I don’t want users to get cut off from downloads if there account isn’t up-to-date, I just don’t want them to have access to updates that came after their account expired.
Thanks
I want to show top downloads on a page with Link template :- call to action 4.I want options to change the number of columns per device. I cant seem to do that using WPDM top downloads for Elementor as there are no options to set this display. I can alternatively use the Packages plugin for Elementor but I don’t see how I can put the top downloads parameter on the parameters available.

Indeed it is still not possible to pay a membership with Mollie.
Can you tell me how long the customization will take?
Will it be working again soon?So if I understand correctly. A Memebership for downloads can only be payd with paypall at this moment, right?

Hello,
I have inspected the issue. You need to create a separate single post type for wpdm. There you need to remove the sidebar for downloads template.
single-wpdmpro.php
the template for custom post type “wpdmpro”, will show WordPress Download Manager Package details when you open a WordPress Download Manager package URL. Usually, you can create a copy from single.php and rename it to single-wpdmpro.php in active theme directory.Let me know for further assistance.
Regards

HI, we purchased Special package but within downloads, we are not seeing BUDDYPRESS integration plugin
Pls enable access to all plugins
After more investigation we think it is a conflict between the updates with this plugin and the memberpress plugin we are using. Currently transferring all downloads over to the memberpress download manager as this addon is integrated to memberpress. We have 176 files to transfer over! No further investigation on your end on our behalf is required, but thank you for your prompt response.

Since running this update the downloads across all pages have stopped working.
NO issues at all prior to running the update.
There are no add ons
Hi,
Recently I have observed that when downloading a .apk file extension file on a mobile phone (I used an Android phone) after download is complete the .zip file extension is added automatically.
So, the actual file .apk becomes .apk.zip.But in fact, it is just the file extension is changed to .zip but the content is not zipped. The content actually remains that of the .apk file.
If I rename the .apk.zip to just .apk the file accessible.I have tried downloading the same on a Desktop browser, there I just got the .apk file extension normally.
This is a reference link:
https://cyanogenmods.org/downloads/shamim-sgcam-8-7/I am referring to the Download link at the end of the page (Attached files section) not the very first Download link that usually downloads a zip package.
If you need some more info, please let me know.

Hello – I have a site that has used Download Manager for years to deliver free video test materials which are often gigabytes in size – I use the free Download Manager since my needs are easily filled by that.
I haven’t had to upload anything for a while, but now when I do click on “Select from Server” it sends me to a popup named “Server File Picker BETA” – but that only allows up to the public_html directory. DM has always allowed and I have always used a /downloads directory in the /mnt directory on my server.
Downloads from the /mnt directory still work fine! I just can’t put a new file in there and direct DM to it.
Did the software change? …adding that limit or is my Beta version of File Picker not updated or am I not seeing something else that allows DM to use the /mnt directory. I would really rather the downloads be off the var/www site since I don’t want to have those huge files to back up when backing up the site. (As it is now, any new file dragged into the “Drop Files Here” goes to /wp-content/uploads/download-manager-files.
Thank you.

Hi,
That page built on Gutenberg using the following plugins and blocks:Theme:
WP Attire – https://www.wpdownloadmanager.com/download/attire-allinone-wordpress-theme/Plugins:
1. Attire Blocks – https://wordpress.org/plugins/attire-blocks/
2. WPDM Gutenberg Blocks – https://wordpress.org/plugins/wpdm-gutenberg-blocks/Blocks:
1. Section
2. Call to Action
3. Category Card
4. Heading
5. Paragraph
6. Packages
7. Post GridBut category page like this [private]https://www.morsemicro.com/downloads/datasheets/[/private] totally depends on theme.
In reply to: Error 500
1. We know there needs to be a bug fix from earlier in the thread. Clicking a single download from Package was creating a zip even though I did not click the Zip button. This was creating huge loads on the server for no reason resulting in the original 500 and timeout error..
2. The Download Count Limits and Expiration Date is not followed for Form Locked Packages.
Right now Form Locked seem to be set to 3 downloads.. If a package has more than 3 files, the person needs to do several Form Submissions to get all files.. That is not good..3. Lack of Scrolling in FormLock link page – Which you provide partial fix.
4. There should be a way to turn the ZIP Package button on and off at the package level. Some packages with small files, a Zip would be great. However, a package with large files, a zip is not good.. Right now your partial fix has totally disable ALL zip which is not so great at all..

Hi there,
We have downloaded and tried to twice install the plugin as per the link and it now shows that the 6.2.9 ( 1.9.6.) installed.
We have re-cleared the cache with Purge SG Cache but we still see a spinning download
See here : https://healtheducationpartnership.com/free-resource-downloads/
Any more ideas please? The client is not at al happy with the product and its inconsistencies, as it has now been over 6 weeks

Hi,
I am building a searchable resource library for a medical professionals group – they want to be able to display downloads by category. Each download has multiple categories and sub-categories. The search interface is structured into tabs so you select the tabs that reflect what you’re looking for – the final tab (of four) shows the downloads in that category. So that final tab should be only showing downloads that match all four of the categories selected by the tabs.https://www.btog.org/resources-v2/
password: btog123This is the code I am using to display the downloads, but the AND operator doesn’t seem to work – it is currently displaying all downloads regardless of the categories in the code.
[wpdm_all_packages login=1 thumb=1 items_per_page="20" categories="medical oncology, small cell lung cancer, scientific principles, aetiology and risk factors" operator="AND" jstable=1 order_by="field_name" order="ASC/DESC" cols="title|excerpt|download_link" colheads="Title|Summary|Download::155px"]
What am I doing wrong?

Hi Shahjada,
Thank you, however when I installed the update from inside the site, it uninstalls the old version but doesn’t install the new version. It removes the plugin entirely. I had to upload / reinstall the old version.
I tried the update from the WordPress updates, and the plugins page and from the Download Manager/settings/updates.
From the WordPress updates and plugins page, I got a success message but as soon as I refreshed the update was back. From the Download Manager updates, it uninstalled. I was offered an install button and then a success message but the plugin was uninstalled.
I also tried downloading from our Download Manager downloads area and uploading that but it’s still the old version.

Here is the all downloads table demo:
https://try.wpdownloadmanager.com/package-list-in-responsive-table/
For only 67 packages there shouldn’t be any such issue, even not for 670, but could be for 6700 if your server can’t handle loading all together.
Please give me your URL and temporary wp-admin login info in a private reply to check.

When we enable the Gutenberg editor in WPDM settings on one of our sites the downloads break – when I try to edit them all posts require re-publishing and when I try to publish I get the error “Publishing failed. Invalid parameter(s): status”.
I’ve identified that it is a plugin conflict with the Toolset Types plugin – when I disable that the conflict goes away. When using WPDM in the old editor everything works fine.
Any ideas?
Hi,
I want to switch from Download Monitor to WordPress Download Monitor, Could you explain the steps to imports downloads from the DM plugin to WDM. And after importing should I need to update download links all over the website or does it automatically work?
Awaiting your reply.

I have 2 main different websites for downloads. Both sites will have the same files, but I want to try two different domains.
So I want to have a third site that will be the one to manage all the files. And post only the links on the two main sites.
Is this possible to do?
And is it possible to avoid Hotlinking?
That only my two main sites can download files located on my dedicated website that stores the files.
It does not matter if it is the paid or free version of WPDM.
Regards
