Hello,
I have an issue with changing the download file URLS.
All my files (Over 3500 of them) are stored on an external server, and so, I add packages by adding URLS.
The problem I have now is that I want to change these URLS periodically to prevent sharing misuse and to save bandwidth.
I have seen that everything seems to be saved in the postmeta file in the DB. Now, when I update all of the links via the postmeta, reupload the file. The download packages no longer work. The postmeta now holds the updated URLS, but when I go to each package (“Downloads; All Packages; Package 001” etc) The attached file still shows the old URL.
How do ensure that it updates to the new ones? Is there another DB file it uses that I’m missing here?
Many thanks
Howdy,
Is there a setting or filter we can use to remove this from our markup; it seems to be injected in our footers and we don’t want it.
Cheers.

I have about 350 packages/files configured on my site via Download Manager Pro. I need to set all of them to use a new custom Link and Page template that I created. Manually changing each package (one at a time) will take a very long time. Is there an automated way to do this?<b></b><i></i><u></u>

I have Download Manager 4.2.2 installed. Currently, when users click on a link to a download package, they are then taken to a page (page/link template)containing a link to the package. They then have to click on that link to access the package. How can I configure my options so that when package links are clicked, the package is immediately downloaded/opened. In other words, I don’t want users to have to click a link multiple times to get the package – I just want the package to open the first time they click on the link.
Thanks.

I installed/configured the “Download Notifications” module. I’ve attached a screenshot of how I configured it. Download Manager Pro is successfully emailing download links from within my site but sales@glds.com (the notification email address) isn’t getting a notification email. What am I doing wrong?
The new Accordion Add-On layout is nice, but it contains items that I do not wish to display, such as the download count, file size, and the direct download link. I figured out how to modify the page template for the packages, but I do not know where to look in order to modify the accordion file. Also, the graphical arrow button is now missing. I would be okay with the download link directing the visitor to the individual package page as the button did before, but again, I have no idea how to make that happen.
I am new to these products and have found very little, if any, instructions for the use of them. Am I missing something, or does the information simply not exist?
I am hearing from customers that the downloads are not working. I have the email lock set up. They are suppose to get a download immediately as well as a link sent to them. However they are not getting an immediate download and when they click the link that is sent to them it says their limited has been exceeded.
We’re creating new WordPress sites entirely in SSL and if I log into the WP admin interface on such SSL sites, Download Manager inserts HTML that isn’t “SSL-safe”, causing mixed content warnings. Here’s what happens:
* Download Manager Pro plugin installed and active on SSL site.
* The main admin interface page has this HTML inserted by Download Manager that causes a mixed content warning (yes, it does say “wpdmvarsion”!):
<pre id=”line1″><<span class=”start-tag”>iframe</span> <span class=”attribute-name”>src</span>=”http://cdn.wpdownloadmanager.com/notice.php?wpdmvarsion=4.3.0”
<span id=”line1048″></span> <span class=”attribute-name”>style</span>=”height: 300px;width:100%;border:0px“></<span class=”end-tag”>iframe</span
And, yes, there is a valid secure cert on https://cdn.wpdownloadmanager.com/
so it could have been prefixed with // instead of http://.
* If you load in the iframe URL, this has further issues in its HTML:
<<span class=”start-tag”>link</span> <span class=”attribute-name”>href</span>=’http://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Source+Sans+Pro:300,900‘ <span class=”attribute-name”>rel</span>=’stylesheet‘ <span class=”attribute-name”>type</span>=’text/css‘>
This http:// link prevents any attempt to workaround the mixed content warning issue (e.g. with mod_substitute, WordPress for HTTPS etc.).
It should of course start with ‘//fonts.googleapis.com/…
It would be nice if these two simple (and near-identical) fixes were added to the next Download Manager release.
Hi! I have problems opening PDF files. They opened as text files. See attached links. The same file opens correctly when it is handled in the media library. Try the attached links. The documents are created from the Swedish version of Microsoft Office. You’ll probably find what is wrong so I ask you to help me to correct this.

Dear all,
we are using the shortcode:
[wpdm-archive button_style=”default” link_template=”link-template-panel” items_per_page=”10″ category=”category-slug” order_by=”field-name” order=”asc|desc”]
Is it possible to remove some of the filterable options? We only would like to have “Publish date” and “Download Count” that we would like to rename into “Popularity”. Do you know how to achieve this?
Is it also possible to tag files and show these tags in the database and the search function?
Thanks so much!
Best,
Hubertus
Hi
I have bought your plugin and read all the documentation, however I am still struggling with a few things.
1. I have linked my page http://www.mbizana.gov.za/download/resources/ to Dropbox. In dropbox I have created a main folder with sub folders with files in. How do I get my page to display the folders, as there is going to be many folders and files uploaded by the client via dropbox and I can’t go and add each one individually. Users should be able to browse within one window between different folders.
2. How do I get the Download link away and replace it with a View link that will view the documents in an embedded viewer. Downloads should not be allowed.
Please help me as soon as you can.
Thanks.
