I have created a radio button custom field called “contributors” so we can reference what organization created the file. Is there a way the data can be linked so that when it shows up on the download page (such as: http://trafficsafety.org/shso-portal/download/cost-of-crashes-2015/) it could be linked to their website?
For instance, in my attached picture, could the “NETS” text be automatically linked to their website based upon a parameter we set somewhere?
Attached is 1.jpg, a screenshot of the link template I made which includes not only the download button but a “more info” button that is made using the [wpdm-download-link] tag.
2.jpg is how the [file_list_extended] tag is rendered by default. I want to know if there is any way I can edit this layout. I would like to add a “more info” button to each of the individual files so people can click on it and be taken to the page of each file included in the package. (For example, using my example link, they wanted to see the thumbnail preview and file detail of just “Cost of Crashes 2015 Report” they could find out.)
I’m coming back with another issue.
The download is working on desktop, but we’ve problems with mobile.
Clicking on the download link nothing happen.
I cannot access to the download page (I’ve enabled the single download option).
1. Do you know of a way to use WPDMP to allow a user on an iOS device to click the download button and load an .ipa file? It has to load, not just download and Apple has a specific method for using a .plist file to call to the .ipa file when it’s outside the app store. If you’re unfamiliar with this, then let me know and I’ll send you the documentation.
If it isn’t inherent in the functionality, then please provide a quote for a custom option to make it work.
If that isn’t possible, then:
2. Can we have the download button link to the package page, just like it works on your own ADD ONS page for WPDM for iOS. If all the download buttons need to link to the package page, then that’s fine.
I’m working on a site with well over a thousand documents, many of which will be grouped in packages. Is there any way to add the Download Link to the list of attachments?
I’m using the [premium_file_list] tag in the template and what I’d like included besides the “download” button is a link from [wpdm-download-link]. When they click on the link, they’d be able to see all the details, preview images, etc. of the individual file within the document. Does that make sense? (I already have it set to allow for individual file downloads.)
I hope this problem will be resolved and more attention will be paid by the developers of this plugin to captcha functionality including the following:
-captcha lock compatibility with all link templates and page templates provided with the pro version of the plugin
-new invisible captcha functionality to be integrated, as with the new Google reCaptcha technology allows invisible captcha
Use custom link/page template to hide unnecessary data. Clone any template from Downloads Templates page and edit on top of it. Then set your custom template in package settings option in edit package page.
You are using an old version of Download Manager. Installing updated version should fix the email address issue. Please install the latest version. You can download it here https://www.wpdownloadmanager.com/user-dashboard/purchases/ Let me know if updating doesn’t fix the issue.
Download Notification email sends user’s name when you email lock the package. It worked in my test.
Over the past few weeks, I have had over 20 customers call me and send me emails explaining to me that they are unable to download the .zip files after they enter the password on our website. After they enter the password, click submit, then click Download, my customers get a “link-expired.txt” file. Can anybody explain why?
Just put WPDM 4.7.0 Pro on a standard, default WP install (4.8.2). The downloaded file could be directly from the root of the website like “licencse.txt” from the WP installation. I tested on default configuration with no changes made in the WPDM plugin settings other then pasting reCAPTCHA Site Key and reCAPTCHA Secret Key. I created a new package named “test” and for testing purposes I added “lincese.txt” file to it from the site root and I selected “Single Column, Image Top, Extended” for page template.
Result: right after captcha is solved a new download window pops-up with the “link-expired.txt”
I shifted many environment variables [target file, browser, browser caching, package name various plugin download options] Nothing works.
On some page templates like “Metro Style” the captcha opens in a pop-up. That captcha is not usable. Erorr: reCaptcha service can not be accessed… So please make sure that the captcha lock module is working and also make a simple check of captcha with each link template and page template.
-until now, I achieved the same result on 2 separate hosting environments (both using cPanel on linux)
-the issue is not related with output buffering or resumable downloads options
-the links can be normally downloaded and are valid if the captcha lock is not used, conclusion being that the captcha lock module does not get valid links from the plugin core
-I can not find the previous version, WPDM 4.6.9 Pro to download and test. Please send it to me If you can. Downgrading might be the best solution for me at this point.
We didn’t change anything around captcha lock option is the latest version.
Yes, the download starts automatically after solving the captcha to save the extra effort of another click for your users. However, your suggestion is noted.
Please give me an example where captcha lock is not working
Download link only will expire after it is used for 3 times, however, in v4.7.0 you can change the limit from wpdm settings page.
However, please give me an example URL where you facing the problem and temporary wp-admin login info in a private reply.
One of the main reasons for which I purchased this plugin is its potential ability to combine expiring links with captcha security witch is almost mandatory these days anyways. Unfortunately I experience a whole range of problems with this plugin when I enable captcha security:
-automatically starting the download after captcha is solved (no option to disable this)
-multi-file downloads and many page layouts do not work well or at all with captcha lock enabled
-automatically download expired links after solving captcha challenge
