Hello all,
I’m relatively new to WPDM, so my apologies if this has been answered before but search was not bringing up my use case.
As the title implies, I have a Download Package page with a gravity form on it set up as the Form Lock. If I set that form to AJAX, it shows the download link upon Confirmation. Easy.
Now, I want to redirect the user to a new page with the download link enabled for them. Preferably, you could not just navigate to this link and download, it would be enabled because you filled out the form. Is this possible? If so, how? The ‘thank you’ page could even be the same page but with the original text dynamically removed, but I need to show a new template for the download.
Thanks so much for your help in advance!
Hi,
I’m experiencing an issue with the search functionality in WP Download Manager.
The main downloads page uses the shortcode:
[wpdm_my_downloads login=1 wpdm_category orderby=”publish_date” order=”desc”]
and the search works fine here.
The downloads use the Default Template (page-template-default) and the template content is as follows:
<!– WPDM Template: Default Template –>
<div class=”row”>
<div class=”col-md-12″>
<div class=”card mb-3 p-3 hide_empty [hide_empty:featured_image]”>[featured_image]</div>
</div>
<div class=”col-md-5″>
<div class=”wpdm-button-area mb-3″>
[download_link]
</div>
<ul class=”list-group ml-0 mb-2″>
<li class=”list-group-item d-flex justify-content-between align-items-center [hide_empty:version]”>
[txt=Version]
<span class=”badge”>[version]</span>
…
</div>
<div class=”col-md-7″>
<h1 class=”mt-0″>[title]</h1>
[description]
<h3>Attached Files</h3>
[file_list]
<div class=”wel”>
[tags]
</div>
</div>
</div>
Frontend search is enabled in Settings > Frontend Access > Enable Search in File List.
The problem is that when I click into an individual download, the search box doesn’t function.
Could you advise why the search isn’t working inside individual download pages and how to fix it?
I’m happy to provide login details to test (all downloads are assigned to user accounts that are password protected).
Thanks,
Austin
I’m using the wpdm archive page addon and use the flat shortcode. I made some changes in the wp-content/plugins/wpdm-archive-page/src/Templates/Flat/views/flat.php file. Now when I open the downloadmanager link in frontend, the changes appear on the frontpage. When I click on a category on the left side, then the view of the downloads is different. It’s the standard view then. I need to have the same template for the view when I click on a category like when I didn’t choose a category. Can you help here? Best regards Andi
It seems that ZIP download for multifile package in case of S3 Storage doesn’t work.
If we click Download only the first file is downloaded.
Is there a way to have the pop-up window auto-close after the reCAPTCHA validation?
It is a little bit confusing for the users: they validate the recaptcha, the download starts, but the window stays active with the message “Your Download Link is Ready” with a Download button. So, the users click on the Download button and download the file again, while the first automatic download has already started.
Plus, the close pop-up window button is hidden; it shows up only when you hover over it. Again, this is super confusing; you have one automatic download, a duplicate download by clicking the Download button, and difficulty closing the pop-up.
Any feedback would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you,
I seen this from about 7 years ago with admin saying that they would work on a fix in the future. As for now, when you click pagination the downloads go to the next page but there is no scroll to the top to see the newly loaded downloads…
is there a fix or alternative?
Hello,
Is there a code that shows a direct download link? ( shortcode or php code)
For example,
<a href="https://site.com/wp-content/uploads/download-manager-files/xxxxx-files.zip">Download</a>
I’m looking for a code that displays the root address of the file
https://site.com/wp-content/uploads/download-manager-files/xxxxx-files.zip
After recently updating my version of the Download Manager I’m experiencing issues with managing templates. I’m unable to preview templates, or create new ones (via cloning). More generally the template manager frequently freezes, and I can only leave the page using the back button of my browser. Can someone please address this issue? Thanks.
I’ve just implemented my first page with download files on a page built with Divi 5. I am using shortcodes with the template=link-template-default-ext parameter for 7 different files on the page. Everything looks and works like it should, but the file sizes are all showing “269.32 KB”. One of the files is close to that number, but others are over 250 MB. Unfortunately, I can’t share the page, as the files are proprietary.
Hi,
We have been experiencing an issue with the pagination buttons in our library section — they suddenly stopped before maybe some weeks appearing a while ago, and we’re not sure why.
We have already disabled all other plugins to check for any possible conflicts, but the problem still persists.
We know that we can still get the pagination working using the simple shortcode below:
[wpdm_all_packages items_per_page="20" paging="1" jstable="0" cols="icon|page_link|categories|download_link" colheads="|Book Title|Category|Download"]
However, what we really need (Very important ) is to restore the full toolbar above the table, which includes the search box and the category dropdown, as it was before.
The code that we use now is:
<p><!– wp:download-manager/datatable {“include_children”:true,”operator”:”AND”,”items_per_page”:”20″,”cols”:”icon|page_link|categories|download_link”,”colheads”:”|اسم الكتاب|التصنيف|تحميل”} /–></p>
Here is the link to our library page:
Could you please help us understand why the pagination disappeared and how we can bring back the search and category toolbar at the top of the table while keeping pagination active?
Thank you for your support and great plugin,
Pierre
