Okay, thank you, that did work. I set the wpdm_download_link_expiration_limit to 1 in the plock if block.
I would have sworn I tried it with success more than 3 times before, but I must be mistaken since now it only allows 1 time, even if the same user copies the link URL and pastes in a new browser tab.
I can’t expect buyers of my software to register as a user on my site, and I also didn’t want to limit the downloads that 1 person supplying the proper password could download.
I will admit that I got a bit upset here at first, thinking I had purchased a plugin which seemed useless to me. But I am glad you responded with this workaround, and quite promptly I should not hesitate to add.
When a package is unlocked using the password the provided link allows 3 downloads using the URL key.
But, another user can download the package if only you have set All Visitors in allow access field. So, setting some user role will prevent anyone else to download the file in this scenario.
If you want to keep the allow access field to ‘All Visitors’ and still want to allow only 1 download after password unlock, then you have to change the limit manually from /download-manager/wpdm-functions.php file. Set the indicated value to 1.
I’m sorry, that is NOT the case. I can send the link to a completely different user on a different computer using a different browser with absolutely no relationship at all. The link WILL allow this completely different visitor to download the file.
Once it is used by a different visitor, only THEN will it substitute in the ‘link-expired.txt’ file.
I just bought and downloaded version 4.6.8 so I am using the most current version.
Download won’t work for another user even if they have the link from another user. Download Manager checks if current user has access to the package before serving download.
Yes, got the issue. WPDM adds a default <div> to wrap the link template. Currently, there is no way to remove it excepting by editing code. You can remove the wrapping div from /download-manager/libs/class.Shrotcodes.phpPackage function.
I already have a custom template for that called: link-template-aa-custom-link.php, but it closes the paragraph and puts the download link on the next line:
Please add those 2 lines of code at the end of your active theme’s functions.php, visit the homepage for one, then removed those code, that will solve it, however, we are adding those 2 options at wpdm admin settings with the next update of the plugin.
Suddenly and without explanation, users have not been able to open or download package files when using Google Chrome. When clicking the link it takes them to a new page with an error message. They are able to download using IE and other browsers. This problem began with the previous version of WPDM installed and continues after the latest update. Clearing the browser cache does not solve the issue and deactivating all other plugins does not solve it either. The error received is pasted below along with a screenshot. The url is valid and works in other browsers.
Hello, I was having the same problem, where only the shortcodes showed up. I reverted to WordPress 4.8 and the previous version of Download Manager pro, and it works now.
To duplicate the problem, on my staging server. The download links were displaying normally, then I:
1) Updated WordPress 4.8 to 4.8.1.
— Download links still worked.
2) Upgraded Download Manager Pro from 4.6.7 to 4.6.8
— Download links broke, only shortcodes showing up.
The plugin behaves as if it is deactivated because all the menu items in the left side are gone, but the plugin is active.
Your license key for the order id ( 55d8cfcfd2f84 ) is linked to bonnenglishsingers.de
Do you want to unlock it from there? If you are getting the invalid key issue in this site please update your version of Download Manager there. That should fix it.
It will require 2 hours of customization. We will develop a custom template tag which you can use in your custom link/page template to open pdf in lightbox.
Customization will be delivered as an add-on within 1-2 days.
If you want to proceed, please use the following link to complete the payment. Our customization rate is $75/Hour.
No, there is no option to set link template there. Although you can use you modify the table using your own template ( /download-manager/tpls/wpdm-all-downloads.php ) for this shortcode.
1. I have set the MailChimp for double opt-in but it is not working.
2. When clicking subscribe the file downloads and an email is sent with the download link. Shouldn’t they be able to download until after they are subscribed after the double op-in?
yup, I understand that. But just be aware that the “fix” in that file, is not actually the fix. The fix is to use the correct URL. The file was supposed to contain a fix so that cross-domain access becomes a non-issue. This is how it should be, since multisite users often have sites with different domains, even on the admin side. As it stands right now, I have to create a special link to add downloads, and in some cases (such as editing an existing item) change the link after loading the page, because the standard link (in the admin sidebar menu) does not work. I hope you can provide a file that does fix this issue. Thanks.
We recently upgraded to WP Download Manager v4.6.7 from v4.6.3. The updated WPDM plugin has introduced an issue with the Advanced Custom Fields plugin (the separate plugin by Elliot Condon, not the WPDM add-on.)
We are outputting WPDM shortcodes within an ACF Flexible Content field. There are several blocks of content within the ACF field that contain WPDM shortcodes (which are outputting links to individual packages.) Using v4.6.3, there were no issues displaying multiple ACF flexible content blocks with WPDM shortcodes. However, with v4.7.6, the system now displays the first content block containing WPDM shortcodes and then stops outputting the subsequent blocks. If the WPDM shortcodes are removed from the first block, it will continue to process content blocks until it hits one with WPDM shortcodes. It will render that block then stop. The rest of the page renders fine and no errors are thrown.
We tried deactivating WPDM, deleting and reinstalling. No luck there. Reverting to v4.6.3 resolves the issue. Any recommendations?
