I’m trying to add a thumbnail image of the actual pdf/image files. How would I do that? Here’s the short code I’ve currently have.
I want the headings to be Thumbnail, File Name, File Type (image of file type), update date, download.
There are 2 ways. You can use the custom fields add-on to add custom fields. Insert the custom field value in edit package screen. The ACF add-on will provide you template tags that you can use in custom link/page template to show you custom data.
Another approach is adding new custom template tags using filter hook wdm_before_fetch_template. Use this option if your template tag generates something dynamic. This is the more completed option and requires coding experience. Here is the filter documentation https://www.wpdownloadmanager.com/doc/filter-reference/wdm_before_fetch_template/
We have migration add-on to migrate packages from 2.x versions. I have attached it below.
Take a backup of the old version before deleting it. Could you please send me the v.2.6.95 as a compressed file? You can send me a download link of the compressed file if you can’t attach it here. I will test it to check if it works with your old version.
In that page, we are using 3 Download Manager widgets. Some styles are coming from the theme. So, the sidebar view in your site might be slightly different from our demo.
The audio tag is used for the [filie_list] template tag to play audio. The popup is used for the popup_link tag and so on. You can remove it by commenting/removing the below line from /download-manager/wpdm-hooks.php file but some related features like audio player, pop-up link won’t work if you have those on your template.
This add-on will allow you to use your theme’s page templates as the template for the package details page. To remove the sidebar you can apply the “No Sidebar” template. Each theme provides a template with no sidebar.
These codes are required for various WPDM features. The audio tag is used for the [filie_list] template tag to play audio. The popup is used for the popup_link tag and so on. You can remove it by commenting/removing the following line from /download-manager/wpdm-hooks.php file but some related features like audio player, pop-up link won’t work if you have those on your template.
Yes, you can add or remove any package related info using a custom link/page template.
To remove the main download button remove the [download_link] template tag from your custom template. You can clone the current template and then remove all unnecessary info from there.
Please check this tutorial to understand how to create a custom template.
Hi,
we have been using download manager pro for several projects. Now in our recent project, the download link when package file is being downloaded creates 0 bytes ZIP folder which i cannot even unzip. URL is this one: https://fit.conceptstory.de/downloads. we have same problem in listing as well as package detail pages. Single download file works though, even the big ones, like video 40 MB file. Any suggestion?
Thank you, Doreen
You can add the following CSS in Customize Additional CSS to hide the “Shared with me” button,
#sharedWithMe { display: none; }
Or just remove the button from template file /wpdm-file-hosting/tpls/wpdm-file-browser-container.php ( line 15 )
From the share window, you can get the package link which is a permanent URL ( Package Link tab ) and you can download package as many time as you want. Does it work for you?
