HELLO,
We have seen WP Attire but not very really impressed with it. Can you suggest some more Theme options which can be effortlessly used with WPDM.
Would any Woocommerce theme for digital downloads ( Like Markite) work with WPDM without any hassles?Rajnish

Topic: Open PDF in new tab
Is there a way to grab the link to a PDF that opens the file in a new tab directly? Everything I try automatically downloads the file. I have some files linked directly in copy (“Click here” to download…) that I want to link the “Click here” to pull from my resource I’ve uploaded, but not link to the resource page, just open that PDF file in a browser window. It would be easy to do if I just knew what the syntax of the PDF link is, but I cannot figure out what it is.
Hello,
Yesterday I bought your plugin. I thought (by reading the description of the functionalities) that the paid version would be able to do a simple task as this one:
-I have an automatic backup system for a few websites on server A.
-The backup files are saved in the user-folder-1, user-folder-2 etc. on server B.
-I’ve created on server B the corresponding users for each of the websites running on server A.
-I’ve installed your plugin and created the download packs (without attaching files, using just the folder view option that shoud get the folder content dinamically, right?) for each user on server B.No selling is involved.
Users are allowed only to download.Question: Is there a way/shortcode to assign each download (and folder) to his user? I tried but did not find anything similar among the functionalities of the plugin I paid for.
ADDENDA: the “Download” button for the whole zipped package does not work (wordpress critical error).
Thank you.
Regards,
RaduHello,
Thanks for contacting WPDM support center.
It is currently not possible as we don’t have any related available shortcode parameter.

However, It will require customization. if you need to add this feature, you can use our customization service hereRegards.
TanvirI have been using this Add-on !

I want it to be my own Page Template: every time I create a new DownloadHello,
I am not quite sure, had not yet update the download manager on the new server

Thank you Nayeem.
Ok, i guess we will need the PRO version to maintain the required functionality on this site.
Before proceeding with the order of a license, we need to know:
– With PRO (Single domains) can we use it in test environments? We have: localhost, dev, preprod, production.
– Are we sure that by installing the PRO the pre-existing downloads will remain? If not, do you provide support for any database alignments?Please let me know
ThanksTopic: Help me
Hi, how do I adjust this so that it is all the way to the other end and without that white space?

We are also using Restrict Content Pro – and all our downloads are only available to registered AND approved members. We do that manually in the admin area of WordPress. Every user gehts a membership level called “members”. Only with this it is possible to gain access to the downloads.
I will try to check the plugin “problem” tonight when hopefully nobody is online.
What makes me wonder is that it works on most of the downloads and on some not. I have not found any differences between the download packages.

Topic: Upgrade plugin
We took charge of a project that uses the Download Manager plugin:
Plugin Name: Download Manager
Plugin URI: http://www.wpdownloadmanager.com/
Author: Shaon
Version: 3.3.6We need to update the plugin (free or pro we don’t know) to a new version, in order to keep pre-existing downloads and statistics, and working on php 8.
We can’t update it because wordpress tells us it’s already the latest version: 3.2.56 is the downloadable version, 3.3.6 is the old version what we have !!!
If we try to install the free version (3.2.56) by downloading it from your site, any pre-existing downloads is not displayed in admin page.
The structure of the plugin is totally different from what we have…How can we do?

Hello Genki Nakanowatari,
I have just adjusted settings from
Downloads > Settings > Upload Settings > Allowed file types to uploadempty to*. please check.Thank you and regards
Hi All, when I go to the download button, only the URL of the file appears there. PDFs and docs are not displayed – only zip files work.
I moved the website earlier and linked it to a new domain. Everything works fine except for this problem.
Topic: Email Notifications
I am trying to upload a CSV that will update some settings for all my downloads. It will not upload, it just stays stuck on 1%. But, I also need to turn on the email notification for every download. I did purchase the notifications add-on but cannot find a setting to make email notifications a default. Is there a way to turn this on for my downloads aside from entering every download and activating notifications one by one?
Im using DM Pro with Amazon S3 addon. Im using sync function to upload old files to amazon but now, any file that originally contained a space is being double encoded as %2520 which is breaking the download link.
In admin, under Attached Files, I see the link as file%20name%20etc.pdf but when I click download on the frontend, the url is showing up as file%2520name%2520etc.pdf and i get an xml error screen that shows
NoSuchKey
<key>downloads/wp-content/uploads/download-manager-files/file%20name%20etc.pdf</key>going forward, i can ensure that there are no spaces in filenames but i have thousands of old files that need to be fixed.
solution?

Hello,
Thanks for contacting WPDM Support forum.
I have just checked all the links and downloads.
Haven’t found any related issues in category thumbnails and the download button. It seems all working properly.
Let me know please if you are still facing any issues. You can also record screen about the issue using tool like this to understand better.Thanks
TanvirI have been using Download Manager for years without issues. I started having issues last month:
1. It started with the back-end where I could no longer upload files. The ‘upload’ area just disappeared totally. I have to enable ‘Gutenberg Block’ in the settings before the upload option appears.
2. Already published pages suddenly had no files to download. Some of these packages had been published for over a year with many downloads already. Then there is suddenly no file and I have to reupload it.
3. Now all my front-end package display blocks have disappeared. On the back-end, I see this messageYour site doesn’t include support for the “download-manager/packages” block. You can leave this block intact or remove it entirely.(
)
My downloads page is entirely blank: https://www.wrr.ng/download/
I have tried updating, deactivating and reactivating the plugin with no changes.
Please help.
I’ve recently started managing a Spanish association’s website based on WordPress that uses the free version of the Download Manager plugin.
When checking the downloads log, I’ve come to discover multiple unique and unknown IP addresses located outside the country (which doesn’t make sense) have downloaded the same PDF file over and over again in the span of several years.
Is this some kind of periodic checkup on the plugin? Or is it, in the other hand, some type of attack or vulnerability an outside agent is exploiting?
Since all IP addresses are different from each other, I can’t resort to blocking them to solve the issue in any case.Topic: Add publication date
hello
I am using the following shortcode to list downloads by category[wpdm_category id="category6" toolbar="0" paging="0" orderby="date" order="desc" items_per_page="100" template="link-template-default-wdc" cols=1 colspad=1 colsphone=1]
Is there anything I could add to the shortcode so that the date of the upload (publication date) of each file is shown?

Thank you!
Hello,
Glad to see you again. Here all the answers listed:1. You can change fonts from
Downloads > Settings > User InterfaceFor further changes you may need to add custom CSS in custom theme.
2. You can change fromDownloads > Settings > User Interfaceto change colors
3. If featured image is higher in resolution, it will already fit the full card. You can check the example page I added the shortcode <a
href=”https://staging.mmpeacemonitor.org/resources/” rel=”noopener” target=”_blank”>here.
4. It can be done by modifying link template codes and adding custom CSS there.
5. Top filter bar design can’t be change with the shortcode, however, you can remove that usingtoolbar=0parameter in shortcode.
6. To show update date you have to use template tag[update_date]in the link template. More details about template tags can be found <a
href=”https://www.wpdownloadmanager.com/doc/templates/template-tags/” rel=”noopener” target=”_blank”>here
7. This can be done by adding custom CSS to the link template. There is a place is provided for adding custom CSS.Thanks
Orignal post can be found here: https://www.wpdownloadmanager.com/support/topic/unique-statistics-do-not-appear-to-be-reporting-correctly/
Hi, I’ve been using the filtering feature here: /edit.php?post_type=wpdmpro&page=wpdm-stats&type=history for unique downloads.
It looks as though there’s been 1092 total downloads but only 19 unique downloads, which doesn’t seem right (it’s usually around 25% of the total downloads figure). When I’ve downloaded the data, it looks as though its only counted unique downloads up to 5th July.I wondered if anyone else had experienced statistics like this or where the export function is only exporting certain dates.
Any help would be really appreciated. Thanks
