Three queries please…
1. PDF Viewer is not showing in list of downloads in our account? We have full access pack, where can we access PDF Viewer plugin to download please?
2. How do we set a default preview image for each download (one per category) please?
3. Updating link template (Settings > Frontend Access > Archive page options) does not appear to be updating the template in the front-end for category pages?Many thanks
Apologies if I have missed something really obvious but I am tearing my hair out trying to do this.
Ok, so I played around with the categories and link templates and couldn’t find a way to add the category title or anything else on the category page (example). Link templates are literally just for the download links and these pages don’t seem to be affected by the Archive page settings. So I created individual pages for the categories and embedded the category shortcodes (example). Works beautifully, or it did until I got asked to put a breadcrumb on the package files to improve navigation.
The breadcrumb think is a mystery in itself. Ended up going for a plugin that lets me put it on the sidebar widget. Looks awful but I can’t figure out any other way to do it (PLEASE let me know if there’s a better way, the ones on the WPDM site are perfect)
The second issue is that the breadcrumb picks up the category rather than the category pages I created individually and I can’t see a way to change that. And also the mid level /downloads page that doesn’t mean anything.
So, 2 questions
– How do I format the category page?
– What is the best way to do breadcrumbs with this plugin?
Thanks very much in advance
This seems like a simple request, but I can’t find the answer. How do you replace an attached file with a newer version without it generating a new unique download link? Ex:
PDF 2020 has “?wpdmdl=23836&ind=1626097315457” link, but we need to update the file to 2021, yet keep “?wpdmdl=23836&ind=1626097315457” as it’s manually linked in other places on the website. When I upload the second pdf file it shows files uploaded for the package, but I am trying to over-write it, not keep both.Topic: Invalid Download Link

all of our download links do not work anymore since an update. tried everything. cleared the cache and stuff. need help.

sebastianTopic: Download problem in a page
I’m using the download manager in few pages.
In this one
it seems that every link is working and I’m able to download the related file.I have a problem with this other page. I click on the red download button and nothing happens.
On the backend it says it WAS downloaded because it updates every stats, but that is not true. The plugin is updated
I had purchased Download Manager Pro and then the addon Amazon S3 in April.Everything work great until early September. All my download files (linked to my Amazon S3 storage) were all broken.
On the backend admin, under ‘Settings’ the tab for ‘Cloud Storage’ is no longer there. The addon AmazonS3 is also gone, not on the plugin list. I kept trying to install back the Amazon S3 and apply update afterward…it show ‘successful update’ but then nothing show.
What could go wrong? How can I send screenshot to show you what I mean?
Please help!
Thanks.
Topic: I need to buy other add-ons
I need to buy other add-ons, but their price is too high, is there a discount on these add-ons to buy together?
I need to purchase the following add-ons:
WordPress PDF Viewer
WPDM Block Hotlink
Lazy Download Add-on
Download Speed ControlI wish there was a discount coupon, I’ll buy them now
Is there anyway to use the email lock and cross reference that with the emails that are entered so that a person doesn’t have to enter their email twice if it is already in the “Subscribers” section? I hope this made sense. I don’t want to use the form lock because then I can’t see what file they downloaded and with the “Email Lock” I can see the file they downloaded and their email but they have to enter their email for every download that they want to do even if they are in the same browser session. So if I could have it where they only have to enter their email once and could then download anything they wanted that would be great. Also I don’t want them to be able to make an account I just want them to be able to enter their email. Or if form lock is used could it also link back to the subscribers bar where it would show what file they downloaded. Please let me know if this is an option. Thank you for your time.
Updated to 6.0.8
Page templates on my download files are set as Single Column with Doc Preview. Doc preview is not working, I get “No hits” when I click on the link to preview a file.
In the backend, when I try to preview a template, a popup window opens with source code of the page instead of the WYSIWYG of the page.
Updating in general still not working properly. After I update DM, I need to manually download add-ons and install them as plugins.
