I have bought pro version and I used free version earlier. How can I install the pro version without losing my download files? When I install new pro version zip-file I get the message that the plugin still exist. I read that an add-on can help but I don’t know which one.
I bought pro version so that you can help to anonymize IP address of the users.
Do you have an privacy policy for w3 eden? I would like to link in my declaration.
Hi,
I need to temporarily remove the lock from my download packages and enable visitors to simply download the files. However, when I disable the lock option, the embedded card changes appearance and the Download link doesn’t work when you click it. If you right-click the link the file does download, however, this is neither obvious nor convenient for visitors and would require me a lot of extra work adding explanatory text to each package. I’ve tried deleting the cache, but that didn’t have any effect. It’s pretty urgent that I resolve this issue as soon as possible. Thanks.
It is not possible to conditionally hide the button without code customization.
But you can use a custom template for packages that have no attached files. Just clone the current template you are using now and remove the [download_link] template tag from there.
Hello, If the package no attached files, can i use [hide_empty:download_link] to hide it?
If not, how to do can hide the no attached files at the package download button?
This happened to me about 2 months ago when migrating a dev site to live production server. All of our links and download pages reverted back to the default. Never finding out why/how, I ended up simply rebuilding the templates and had to do a search & replace to update all of the custom shortcodes. Luckily I only had 2 of them, and luckily, I knew how to use Search & Replace as we had about 40 instances of using a custom template.
FWIW – I transferred my site using ManageWP Clone feature.
I have the Mailchimp lock add-on and use this to create email lists of subscribers who download my content. I’m based in Europe and now the GDPR privacy law is coming into effect I need to make sure I comply. Mailchimp has the option of adding consent to its signup form, however, when people subscribe to my lists using the Download Manager package form they don’t receive the Mailchimp signup form with the consent options. Instead they receive a Mailchimp recaptcha email and are then automatically added to my list. I have double opt-in enabled in both my Download Manager settings and in my Mailchimp lists. Is there any way of linking Download Manager and Mailchimp so that users receive the Mailchimp signup form with the consent options that are so important for GDPR?
Hi, we just moved our site to a live server and now all of the custom templates have disappeared, and the download links are looking terrible. We need to get this resolved ASAP.
We had to do a find and replace to update the url’s to the live url address, so I’m not sure if that would have affected it.
Multi-file zip download is working now. I deleted the previous installation of the plugin and installed a fresh copy. If you face the issue on other sub-sites, just deactivate and re-activate the Download Manager.
The [download_link] template tag is working too. ( Removed onclick attribute & added {$post_vars['download_url']} in href tag [ line no 185 class.Package.php ] )
You can use link template (package details button) with the package shortcode to show your downloads on a page. Then the user can click on the details button to get into the single package page and download. Or
You can use Lazy Download, which offers you to redirect download to a different page and user needs to wait certain time period before download.
But there is no feature to redirect to same download details page from package page when user clicks on download. If you want custom modification please send details to customize@wpdownloadmanager.com
Hi we are showing category wise downloads on our site. After clicking on any file user is redirected to page where all details of file are displayed with link to download them. We don’t want to allow user to download files from this page and we want user to be redirected to new page where all details will be displayed and download will start directly.
Can this be done out of box with your module or it will need customization for this?
Shariar, good evening. It was working until the Premium update today. Now when you attempt to download it doesn’t produce the link-expired.txt file, it just bounces you to the homepage without downloading any file at all. Would you please take a look? Is it possible that the quick-fix code that worked before is conflicting with the new Premium update?
Thanks for taking the time, will send login credentials in a separate note.
i have tried what you said, the download button is downloading single files but it is not downloading zip files on both the integration and download site.
I did change the [ download link] to [link_label] , and it still does not work.
I have attached some images, the zipped files have multiple documents in them.
I have WPDM pro. At the moment all my downloads are free for anyone to download though I may want to change that in the future. I would like to make it easy for anyone to select from one to all the files in a package and download them as a zip or as separate files. I am completely failing to see how to do this. My nearest attempt is this: https://www.coresystemtrust.org.uk/translations/spanish/
I don’t like the look of those default templates but that’s another matter. The first one does what I want giving the user all the files in one zip. The second one gives them the same file collection as a zip if the user hits “download” (not what I would expect as a naive luser) and hitting the link in the box does give a very crude selection but that only allows the user to download each PDF file separately.
Please use the template editor from Downloads Templates page to create a custom template. Those will be visible in template selection drop-down.
Using [download_link] template tag in your custom template you can directly download/open a file without visiting the details page. There are lots of built-in link templates which already has this feature. These built-in templates link the title to the details page and there is another link with Download text to directly download/open the file.
If you want you can remove the details page link from the title.
1 ) Download works fine here https://integrations.cathexisvideo.com/manuals/ If you are facing any issue it is your browser cache, as I said before. I tested it again and download worked fine. Please check this screenshot,
