Now all zip files will be stored in cache dir which you can clear periodically from Downloads Settings Privacy tab. If you don’t want to store zip file it is better to disable the package download button and use only single file download links. Because creating a zip file takes a fair amount of server resource and as you are not storing those created zip the process has to be done again the next time someone else downloads the file.
So, either deactivate whole package download link or keep those zipped files to get optimized performance.
A user can edit only their own profile info. And you can control the access to the downloads using the “Allow Access” option in package settings.
WordPress shows the admin bar to all registered users. Download Manager has nothing to do with that. But I can suggest some code to hide the admin bar. Add the following code in theme’s functions.php file to hide admin bar for all roles except administrators,
add_action('after_setup_theme', 'wpdm_remove_admin_bar');
function wpdm_remove_admin_bar() {
if (!current_user_can('administrator') && !is_admin()) {
show_admin_bar(false);
}
}
Ok.. so once I got the path right ( You don’t need the /tpls/ just /{theme}/download-manager/metaboxes/ <filename> .. .Then it worked.. Which at least protects my workaround for now.. But it really does need to be more properly fixed, as the 6 BR tags stretch out the border around that panel.. so it looks weird.
Additionally, tonight, a new problem has shown up.. and not sure if it’s a problem due to the Loop back error, or what…
Previously, we setup all our downloads on different pages to go directly to the files (using text links, and the direct download link). There are a couple of files setup in the menu’s and I’d say 90% of the rest of the files on various pages are linked like that. This system worked just fine when we set up the plugin originally. (Purchased Date: Apr 19, 2019).
However now, none of the links are working… Both the text links, and those using WPDM Link Templates, all direct the user to the package’s information page, and the download button on that page just keeps re-loading that page. This makes the system completely unusable.
Any idea on what’s going on here, and how to fix it? This is a critical high-priority error.
Which link template are you using now? Please check the package settings and find the selected link template. Then clone this link template from Downloads Templates page. In this new cloned link template, you have to replace [download_link] with [download_link_extended] to use an embedded form instead of popup.
You can also override the link template selected in package settings by defining the template in your package shortcode. Check the example below,
Using the short code [wpdm_my_downloads login=1] I can limit each logged in user to only see the categories and files which they have permissions to. However, I like the layout of the [wpdm_Tree] much better. Is it possible to use the [wpdm_Tree] view and limit the users to only see the categories and files they have permissions to?
I have already installed the Custom Access Level plugin and set “When user is not allowed to download:” to “Hide everything”
I am using the wordpress download manger and I am using this code to display the download lists in an order so that it orders by update_date, but somehow its not working, Can you please help me fix the issue. Here is the short-code I am using
[wpdm_all_packages items_per_page="20" categories="brochures" order_by="update_date" ]
This is my webpage where its listing all the downloads https://tritool.com/news-resources/resources/brochures/ The update date are showing wrong on this page if you click the available download file for details you will see the accurate update dates for every download.
The search option is available in the data table version of all packages table. Not everything in this template is editable because some parts are controlled by the data table js library.
It is possible to hide the number of packages per page dropdown using custom css. It is also possible to add search placeholder. Create a copy of the wpdm-all-downloads.php template file and place it in /active-theme/download-manager/ directory. Then send temporary wp-admin login info in private reply. I will make the code updates to add these features.
Please send temporary wp-admin login info in private reply. I will update the code for you. To make these changes permanent copy the wpdm-all-downloads.php file and place it in /active-theme/download-manager/wpdm-all-downloads.php directory. I will edit this new template file.
As I wrote before, I’m using Bulk import page, but I cannot set the correct mapping for some fields using the previously attached csv.
For example:
– Category (I created category in Downloads > Category and in Posts> Category as well, but no one are linked)
– File Name (Inside the page I see the name of the .pdf instead the filename)
– Access permission (always set as Full access)
The packages you see in backend were manually modified after the import. In screenshot the packages imported with csv (no manually modify).
Could you please help me?
You can modify the labels using register_post_type_args filter. Add the following code to your theme’s functions.php file and adjust the labels as you want.
Please send temporary wp-admin login info in private reply Or add the following code after line 235 in /download-manager/tpls/wpdm-all-downloads.php file,
The issue appears to be with CSS and the use ‘col-md-X’ of several plugins, however i don’t want to spend all day finding and editing code that should already be correct.
After almost $200 spent here i’m finding that your documentation is quite poor.
2 ) Swift doesn’t support the additional previews yet. Will add this in next version. But can use the WPDM Page Template add-on which will allow you to use any Page Template from Downloads Templates page.
One of your plugins is creating the JS error which is blocking the download operation. We can bypass it using a custom link template. Please install the Pro version of Download Manager and then you can create custom link template from Downloads Templates page. Or just let me know after installing Pro. I will create the template for you.
1 ) Download Manager uses the active theme’s single.php template to show the details page. The single.php controls the layout but using WPDM Page template you can control the view of package-related content. In each package settings, you will find an option to set the page template. All WPDM Page Templates are listed in Downloads Templates page and you can create your own template.
If you want to control the layout too, then create a template file named single-wpdmpro.php and place it in your theme directory. This is the WP Core level template that will be used to show WPDM packages. You can copy the single.php and remove the parts ( comment reply, sidebar, etc ) you don’t need.
2 ) I have to check your page to suggest custom CSS. Maybe the styling is coming from your theme.
I have created a new Administrator for our Multi Site – but the WPDM Pro items are not showing in the Appearance > Menus for him to be able to add categories / downloads to the menu.
I have used “User Role Editor” to tick all capabilities for administrator. He has the exact same privileges as me as a Super Admin, but cannot edit the menu items where I can.
Hello everybody,
I’m looking for some infos about csv bulk import mapping.
I’m using WPDM Pro, with Advanced CSV Import. I download and fill each field of sample .csv, I upload it to >CSV importer, and I get the screen about mapping fields.
I cannot understand how I have to map some fields (not the custom ones, but standards).
As example, I cannot import downloads’ category. What is the correct field? post_category does not work, and I don’t have such an option as WPDM:_category or similar.
Same error on some other fields, as file_titles and so on…
I send you attached the screenshot with the field I can’t map correctly (red underlined), and all the available fields in the select menu…
Could you please help me in mapping them correctly?
We are using Enfold theme but the login page is not allowing a slider we want to add at the top that goes under the logo (so that the logo and navigation will show). This works on the register page and dashboard page, just not the login page.
Hi,
It is because you are not using the latest version of the file download-manager/tpls/wpdm-all-downloads.php, probably, you are using a customized copy, however, if you want to use the latest version of that file, please download the latest version from premium download are and replace that file or all.
