I just updated to 4.6.9 and the image buttons will no longer work. It simply shows the word “Download” and is a link. How do I get the button to come back?
Hi WPDM,
We have used your plugin for a couple of years now, and recently we had an issue with very large download-packages – the primary issue was the upload-limit on the server, and was not an issue with your plugin.
But, another issue we found was, when a user click the download button to download a large package (1 – 1.5 GB), it takes some time for the browser to prepare the download. In that time (typical 20-60 seconds of waiting) people tries to click the download button again or several times, because they can’t see that anything is happening. These extra click, results in an unsuccessful download. Instead of downloading the real package, you’ll get a text-file named “link-expired.txt”! If you do only click the download button once, the download will start successfully after 20-60 seconds.
Yes, people should only click it once – but 9 out of 10 people will click the button more than once XDMy question is: Could you add an onclick-event, so the button goes into a disabled or loading stage? And maybe also some sort of countdown or something that illustrates, that the download is about to begin? Just so that people cannot click the button more than one time, until the download begins. I will prefer not to add one myself, because it will be overridden when updating the plugin.
Using that in a template:
<a href="[download_url]" target="_blank">[icon][title]</a>but that only gives me
mysite.com.au/download/program/?wpdmdl=675I tried this also to get the full path(where i paste the filename in the link label):
<a href="/wp-content/uploads/download-manager-files/[link_label]" target="_blank">[icon][title]</a>The path is correct but get a 404 in wordpress.
Is this possible?
Hi, I have installed Download manager Pro 4.6.9 and Form Lock 1.5.2. I am trying to use it with Contact Form 7.
After I input all of the fields and submit them, then I got an email notification for administrator with those input data, but no email was sent to the user with Download link.BTW I tested Email Lock option and it works OK.
Can you help me ?
Topic: Form Lock Errors
Hello, I have form lock activated but it only works if I have “Load lock options using ajax” enabled in the settings. It only works if using ajax. I want the form to show when page is loaded though instead of pop up only when download link is clicked. Is showing form on page load possible with this plugin?
Also, when I have the WP Pro Membership plugin activated, it disables the Form Lock completely. Files can be downloaded without showing the form. Form Lock will once again work after I deactivate WP Pro Membership, so there seems to be a conflict with these two plugins.
Thank you.
Topic: Manual Download Approval
I have seen this as a feature request on older posts, but nothing current. Is there a way to manually approve downloads? Here is how I would like it to work:
1. New user fills out a form providing information such as name, email, company, phone, etc.
2. An assigned administrator recieves an email that a user has requested access. This email will contain the information that the user filled out on the form and a link to approve the request.
3. Once the request is approved, and email will go out to the user who requested access with a download link.Is this possible with any combination of add-ons or third party plugins?
Thanks,
MarkHi,
None of my downloads are working in any browser except Chrome! If users attempt to download using Firefox or another browser they receive a notification that the download link has expired. I´ve attached screenshots of the message. I have not set any expiration date or any kind of download limit on any of my packages. I´ve tested it myself in a number of browsers, and it´s the same issue. I´m launching a marketing promotion TOMORROW and need users to be able to download the material!! PLEASE can you help resolve this issue!Hello!
I have in my site one page for downloads that is “/downloads”, so inside this page I’m using some shortcodes to show the downloads. That’s ok and working.
I have some subpages like “/downloads/softwares”, in this case, “softwares” is a page that has the “download” page as the parent. That’s ok and working great.
But when I choose some pack that is listed in any of “downloads” or “softwares” pages, it shows the pack in the URL I’m using inside the Settings/URL Structure, that are “download” for Category URL base and “downbase” for Package URL base.
This is not a problem to have this link, like ” http://my-domain/downbase/winamp-5-666/ “, but when I click on it, inside the page, at the header, below the main manu, it says:
HOME > PACKAGE > WINAMP 5.666
Winamp 5.666Also, it would not be a problem, except for the link: “PACKAGE” has the link for ” http://my-domain/downbase “, but this is not a page and it give me a 404 error. I want this link to send the user back to the home of downloads ( /downloads ) or the the category/page (they are the same), in this case, “softwares”.
How to do that?
Thank you so much.
I am confused, because I feel like I got this to work a month back and now its not working. How do I link the download link to an external URL? When I place the URL in the URL spot it goes to an internal link directory. I want some of my files to link to a different URL
