I am getting download link expired when using the email lock, any one any thoughts ๐
Regards
Alan
Using the default shortcode [download_link] outputs a link with class=”wpdm-download-link wpdm-download-locked [btnclass]”
Note the brackets.
If I try to add a class [download_link btn btn-large]. The shortcode does not execute.
I’ve created a test package containing two files. I want a post to show the download links to all files in the test package without linking to a separate download page. How can I do this?
Where is the download link and how do I update this? I looked in my plugin list and it shows it is out of date, but the link it sends it to is not the download link. Also, when I tried replacing the plugin in my folder via FTP it broke my site.
Please list the download link and steps to update.
I upgraded everything as shown on this link and now I have duplicates of every single file in my database. It has also stripped categories and tags from each and every file. I can’t believe that I’m expected to fix everything on my own now. Even my custom templates are no longer associated with the proper files.
Help with this would be greatly appreciated.
I put in writable permissions (777), but only the “look e-mail” started to run. The “fb look” after the click, you download the file “Link Expired”.
I found the expire_date field under custom fields. I have 2 issues though:
1.) I can’t figure out the correct format to put the date in, whatever date I put in, I get “Download was expired on January, 1970”. Ive tried DD/MM/YYYY and YYYY/MM/DD, never values seem to be recognized correctly, the package is simply expired.
2.) With the expire_date set, does this prevent you from downloading individual files? Currently it doesn’t seem to be and that is a problem for me. I need to expire the bundled link and the individual files in the package, how can this be accomplished?
Thanks
1) download archive page addon again install v2x for wpdm pro 4
2) you can update link template from wpdm settings page or assing link link template using parameter ( details: http://www.wpdownloadmanager.com/download/wpdm-directory-add-on/ )
3) use category slug like [wpdm_category id="categoryslug"] , use http://www.wpdownloadmanager.com/download/advanced-tinymce-button/ to generate short-code
4) as #3
5) not clear, please explain little more.
6) if you don’t see custom fields make custom fields metabox visible from screen options.
7) clear browser cache
I would be happy to try the update file. Can you send me a link to it. I cannot update from my plugin tab and cannot see it anywhere.
Thanks Shaon, now it works but I have the same problem I found also in the Email Look.
when I click on Like or the link on the email, makes me download a txt file where it says:
Download link is expired. Please get new download link.
without “Look Options” the file is downloaded.
What does this mean? Where I’m wrong?
I am using WordPress 3.8.0 and Download Manager 4.0.0. I setup a single category and package with a file locked with email lock. When inserting the shortcode in a page [wpdm-all-packages] and I view the test page at http://www.acumum.com/library-test/ you can see that the entry name is corrupted and when checking Firebug console I see a script Syntax Error that I tracked down to the following:
DownloadLink() in functions.php inserts the page code for the ShortCode which includes script.
It appears as if the WordPress Page Filter add line-break tags in just the wrong places to corrupt the output just enough to make it unusable.
I checked about how to disable these filters for just your shortcodes but without success… am I the only person with this issue?
I can’t disable the filters globally for all pages as I would have to reformat all pages… there must be another way.
in that case you could use some random name or remove [title] tag from link or page template
[download_url] will work for public downloads only, where you didn’t apply any lock option. [page_link] will generate complete link ( url + title as label ), so you don’t have to use it inside a tag [page_url] should be used as href value for a tag. Anyhow please give me your url to check.
I am using 3.3.8 Pro. The download link uses a unique masterkey in the URL (I like this!). Is there anyway to use that masterkey in the URL in the “View” package URL instead of exposing the package name? If I have a package named ABC123, someone might guess the next package ABC1234 when I don’t want them to.
I would like to have some packages not require any password, but not be easily visible to everyone. I would like to share a fairly random/unique URL to the download page. Is this possible?
Perfect, found it in wpdm.php and your change worked great. Thanks
functions.php or wpdm.php
no, you don’t have to recreate any package.
I am on Version 3.3.8 and don’t have a wpdm-core.php
I assume it is somewhere in functions.php I have to make the change? Will I need to recreate the package for the new URL to be made?
file: wpdm-core.php
line# 117
function name: wpdm_download_url
change site_url to home_url
I dont have this site accessible to the internet yet. Do you know what link I am referring to? If there is a file or something I need to edit, I should be able to handle it if you explain it to me. Thanks
please send a temporary wp-admin login info to support@wpdownloadmanager.com
Thanks shaon,
My idea is i upload file to mediafire and share that link to my app page (product page)
So may be have one or more version of apps (mobile apps like ios, apk android).
I want when download visitor can choose link download old version, new version
looks like you are using old version of user review add-on, please download again to get the latest version (1.1.0). that will looks ok.
Checking overlap issue, will update theme by tomorrow, please send a temporary wp-admin login info to support@wpdownloadmanager.com to get an early update, on need.
“So, finally, i usualy use link from Mediafire and i want display more than 1 link with attributes per link in my product page” <-- not clear, may you please explain it little more.
i tried to install the 4.0.0 rc2 version:
i don’t see the download link (shortcode in page does not work), but the download page works.
In admin pannel to “All Packeges” I do not see the id of the package.
Thanks for the quick response!
it is a css conflict with your theme, pleas use link template extended and page template extended, but i think it will be better to install wpdm pro v4.0.0.rc2, rather then wpdm pro v3.3.8.
Thank you Shaon – I tried the method you suggested without success. I’m not entirely sure about the Link template or how to go about it.
So I’m having a couple of (what I consider) major issue after activating the PRO version
The main homepage of my site disappears and It’s replaced with a RSS / Login screen.
The table which the DL links resides, absolutely messes up. Due to the Link label asking to login before downloading
The site is live (greenxled.cn/downloads), so I decided to go back to the FREE version for the time being until I can sort these issues out first. The free version seems to work seamlessly after activation, OK without the added features of PRO. So why is the PRO version so temperamental requiring all these changes?
I purchased PRO for the added features – So any help in making this work right would be appreciated
