Search Results for 'download link'

You have to use a custom link template to modify the link in the package title. Currently, it is using the [page_link], to open the file directly replace that with <a href="[download_url]">[title]</a>

You can clone the link template from the Downloads > Templates page. Send temporary wp-admin login info in private reply if you need help with that.

We will review the implementation of a hook to change the page template on the fly. In the meantime, I have a suggestion for your membership area implementation. Instead of linking to the details page, use a shortcode with link-template which will provide instant download without visiting the package details page. This will make things easier for your members.

Hi,

this is the short code:

[wpdm_category id="erp-scale-pse" tags="web" cols="1" order_by="name" toolbar=1 desc=1 item_per_page=10 template="link-template-calltoaction3.php"]

For your information: Each time we create a new version of our software, we create a new category which is version specific. e.g. erp-scale-pse-v4-0-2-b19233. We then make the parent of the new category (erp-scale-pse-v4-0-2-b19233) the category erp-scale-pse. This automatically displays the latest release on our main download page. When the next version is released, we change the parent of category erp-scale-pse-v4-0-2-b19233 to the the category old-releases. Using this we can quickly move versions between the current release page and old releases pages.

Note: On the old releases page we currently add each previous release individually in a separate block with a separate short code. It would be great if we could get a similar layout by just adding the “old-release” category and the child categories are automatically listed as a separate block with the category title as header and the files listed within the block.

Thanks for your help

Please update the “Button Template Clone” with the following code. Adjust the image src to set your own image.

<a class="wpdm-download-link" href="[download_url]"><img src="https://img.icons8.com/nolan/50/000000/download.png"></a>

One of your plugin is breaking the download URL when using [download_link] tag.

I have cloned Button template to create a new template with the following code. And that fixed the issue.

<a class="wpdm-download-link btn btn-info" href="[download_url]">Donwload</a>

Updated the pacakge with the new Link Template “Button Template Clone”. Try the download link in this page https://www.prounione.it/en/ecumenism/wpcu/2020-week-prayer-christian-unity/

Hi,

Use the first link without the master key,

Hi Myron, just want to tell you are not alone.
For us WPDM is fine for normal PDF-file and other small files. But for heavy files I do not use it anymore, since our clients have been complaining a long time about slow speed and interupted downloads.
We have tried to solve it in many ways, but for now I put big files with a normal wordpress direct link (like a normal link to a media-file). Will look further for other solutions out there.

Hi,

By default, No HTML is allowed as the button label. But you can override it using wpdm_custom_data hook. Add the following code to your theme’s functions.php file and set the font awesome icon <i class="fa fa-download"></i> in “Link Label:” option of package settings.

function wpdm_html_link_label($data, $ID){
    $data['link_label'] = get_post_meta($ID, '__wpdm_link_label', true );
    return $data;
}
add_filter('wpdm_custom_data','wpdm_html_link_label', 10, 2);

Best regards.

It is possible but requires a custom template for /download-manager/tpls/wpdm-all-downloads.php I have created the custom template which sorts by download count. Download the file from the following link and place it in /active-theme/download-manager/wpdm-all-downloads.php

Download Issue: When you use the main download button to download all files WPDM creates a compressed zip to serve the download. Creating a zip requires lots of server resource and if there are too many files some servers can’t handle the request. That what happened in your case. So, the solution here is enabling single file download or just upload an already zipped file.

Naming issue: Download Manager renames a file when there is an existing file with the same name. You can enable the override if you want in which case the old file will be overwritten by the new one instead of using a new name.

Link expired notice: WordPress uses nonce in all actions. And nonce expires after a defined period. So, you can’t create the pacakge that you opened yesterday. Just upload your files using WPDM asset manager or FTP app. The link the server dir when creating the package.

No, it is not possible to create pacakge automatically without clicking the “Create Package” button.

I have added the custom CSS in Customize > Additional CSS option. So those won’t be lost in plugin update. But if you make any changes inside plugin folder changes will be lost when you update the plugin.

Hi,

You have to modify your theme’s single.php template to add the next/prev link in package details page. Please download one of our free themes. You can copy the code from there.

Thanks.

There is a difference between your WordPress-address (URL) https://www.vphuisartsen.nl/2018 and Siteadres (URL) https://www.vphuisartsen.nl The issue originated from there. I have updated the Block Hotlink add-on to handle this scenario. Downloads are working now
