Search Results for 'download link'

Please send me a package link that shows the download count. I will test the reported issue. Also, make sure you have the latest version of WordPress Download Manager.

You can use the category shortcode to packages/downloads from one or more categories. This shortcode has a col parameter which let you define the number of columns you want to use to show packages. Here is an example of category shortcode,

[wpdm_category id="slug1,slug2," cols="3" toolbar=0 desc=0 item_per_page=9 template="link-template-bsthumnail"]

If you lock your download using any lock from WPDM lock features, no one can share download links. Because those links are temporary.

Hi,

The best option to modify [file_list] is creating a custom template tags using wdm_before_fetch_template filter ( https://www.wpdownloadmanager.com/doc/filter-reference/wdm_before_fetch_template/ )

To modify the style of [file_list] template tag copy the Table function from /download-manager/libs/class.FileList.php and link it to your filter. Then add your customizations in the new Table function.

You have to add the code to your theme or child theme’s functions.php file.

function wpdm_table_mod(){
// paste the code from original table function here
}
add_filter('wdm_before_fetch_template', 'wpdm_custom_template_tags',10,1);
function wpdm_custom_template_tags($vars){
$vars['file_list_custom'] = wpdm_table_mod();
return $vars;
}

Please add display: none; inline CSS in the marked position to hide the floating file cart. No other option available yet but we will add an option in the future release to hide it.

Thanks.

You can use the following shortcode for Archive Page compact view. This shortcode has category drop-down.

[wpdm-archive button_style="inverse" link_template="link-template-panel-1-3" order_by="post_title" order="asc" items_per_page="10" cat_view="compact"]

You can also check out the sidebar view https://demo.wpdownloadmanager.com/wpdmpro/archive-page-sidebar/

[wpdm-archive button_style="default" order_by="post_title" order="asc" items_per_page="10" cat_view="sidebar"]

WPDM packages can have more than one file types in a single package. So, there is no way to create a dropdown by file type because you can manage this kind of things using category and subcategory.

Advanced Search Left Shortcode
[wpdm-search-page cols="1" items_per_page="10" link_template="panel" position="left"]

Advanced Search Shortcode
[wpdm-search-page cols="1" items_per_page="10" link_template="panel"]

Archive Page Compact Shortcode
[wpdm-archive button_style="inverse" link_template="link-template-panel-1-3" order_by="post_title" order="asc" items_per_page="10" cat_view="compact"]

Please install the Advanced TinyMCE add-on. This add-on provides an easy to use a graphical user interface to insert various shortcodes including the ones you need.

How did you create your custom link templates? If you have put those files inside the Download Manager plugin dir files will be gone after deleting the plugin. If you have put those in theme dir I can safely delete the plugin to test old version.

Are you testing this in an unlocked package? Open downloads are always open, you do not need a temporary link for that. Expirable links are for locked packages. This link bypasses the lock and expires after passing usage limit or usage period.

You have to create the /download-manager/ directory/folder inside your active theme dir. Please send FTP info and wp-admin login info in private reply if need help with that.

Btw, I missed one thing in my previous reply. You can replace the title with page_link in your shortcode add a link in download title.

If adding the link enough you don’t have to edit the template file. The custom template file is required only if you want to add the download link with the title.

Add the following message in Settings Basic Message Login Required Message option and set Hide Everything in Settings Basic Access Settings When user is not allowed to download:

Login is required to access this page
 Login

After setting these options, You will see a login link in packages where a user must log in to access the package.

Make sure to replace the basesiteurl in the message with your site URL.

Are you searching from Archive Add-on Search option or is it your regular site search? Although both shows the package in my test. You can try setting the access setting to ‘Only Block Download links’

Please send login info in private reply if you want me to check the issue there.

Just checked the package link. Looks like you have sorted out the issue. Most probably your allow access settings field was empty or the user you were testing with didn’t have the access.

Please install the updated version of Download Manager to fix the license issue. You can download the latest version here https://www.wpdownloadmanager.com/user-dashboard/?udb_page=purchases

Deactivate and delete the old version before installing the latest version. You won’t lose any data.

You can send temporary wp-admin login info in private reply if you need help with the update process.

Thanks.

Hi,

This requires a custom solution. Download Manager can replace the download link with a login button. But it doesn’t work the exact way you explained above.

Thanks.

It was a changed to serve direct download instead browser preview. But it seems the direct link generates temporary download link and has an expiration period. So, we will switch back tot he preview. Releasing update asap.
