forget the link template issue.. not all my settings transffered so it had a different template option.. still getting blank page for download packages, maybe that’s also a template issue, I don’t know.. What a pain in the ass to have to edit all the package short codes.
Hi Shaon π
in the last two months i was very busy, and I heard just now that you’ve released the new 4.0 version π
The question: WPDM Pro is installed in a production server. It is safe to upgrade to the new 4.0? Any risk (i.e.: loosing the packages already created, loosing the custom page/download links…)?
The plugins (Archive page and Extended short-cuts) are still valid?
Thank you π
My old link template doesn’t work in V4, it does not show the lock options, it only allows me to click on the package name which brings me to a blank package…
1st image is v3.3.8
2nd image is v4
3rd image is download package page
Hi. When I use the short code [wpdm_tree] it displays the full tree of files. However when I click on a file to download it, the link leads to http://www.mysite.com/subdomain/undefined – how can I correct this issue? The same thing happens on your demo site….
Thanks in advance. Richard
please give me your url to check
actually pro is 100s times powerful then free, here you have option to create new templates simply using template tag, image button add-on ( http://www.wpdownloadmanager.com/download/wpdm-image-button/ ) to prettify download link and many more, you don’t have to edit each package to change template, when you will use tinymce button add-on you will have option to select template directly from there while generating short-code, as pro version has so many options and feature it certainly will take little more time to understand everything, that actually don’t make it worse. After you understand all features of pro, i think you will love it most. Anyhow let me know if you need any clarification on any feature there.
Shaon,
I went to my downloads section and downloaded the 4.0.0. When installing the plugin it still shows up as RC2. Can you please send me a link to the new version?
I am suppose to launch a website tomorrow and needed a robust plugin to manage downloads. After using the the Free version of WP Downloads Manager I was happy with the plugin. I purchased the pro plugin because of the things it claimed to do.
It is a much worse experience than the free plugin. I can not find a single template that will properly display my download link.
I have had to use multiple plugins to achieve similar functionality to the free plugin, such as the Tiny MCE Button plugin, which even after install is not half as robust as the free version. Without this I will have to go into each package and change the template without the advantage of using the shortcode in my product admin page.
I am very unhappy. I have spent valuable hours and $45 on a plugin that is not ready for market. I am very unhappy with this plugin.
The only advantage I have seen is the ability to download multiple downloads. Now that they are downloaded I can’t make a format work to display them properly. I am very frustrated. In all the years I’ve been working with WordPress I’ve never been this unhappy with a plugin experience.
btw. no matter what link-template i will set for categories it’s always messed up, not only images, but tables, text etc. pretty sure it’s interfere somehow with WP theme but can’t guess what it is…
for example:
http://playernotes.pl/programy/
it’s “boxed” link template and it looks totally different, from one on demo page.
another thing – i noticed, that thumbnails does not work on demo site either:
http://demo.wpdownloadmanager.com/wpdmpro/wpdm-package/wordpress-shopping-cart-system/
just too same images – maybe it’s something, that you should really look into before update to 4.0.1 π
ok thanks, is my cache dir ok. I sent a pic
Thanks
cache dir location /plugins/download-manager/cache/, anyhow got the issue, update is coming within next 24 hours or less.
Also I have noticed I cannot delete the email address, maybe related ?
This is the permissions on my download-manager cache
where is the cache directory??
the file is here you can try
http://bannonmccabe.co.uk/photo-booth/
bottom of page at right
1) create new link template with template tag [audio_player_single] and apply that
2) http://sina.wirmachenesbesser.de/download/sprecherin-sina-begruessung/ , mp3 player is working fine:
it may happen if cache dir not writable or you trying to use same link for more then 3 times.
[download_link btn btn-large] will not work anymore with wpdm v4, use only [download_link] and if you want use image for download button, you can use this add-on http://www.wpdownloadmanager.com/download/wpdm-image-button/
use [file_list] with link template and enable individual download, for example:
<div class="panel panel-default">
<div class="panel-heading"><b>[title]</b></div>
<div class="panel-body">
[file_list]
</div>
<div class="panel-footer">[download_link]</div>
</div>
copy the above code and create a link template with this. use the link template for any package.
I got that part sorted, I re download the file from your site and made a fresh install. The problem I have now is file Download link is expired. Please get new download link.
Any thoughts Shaon
Thanks
Alan
I am getting download link expired when using the email lock, any one any thoughts π
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.
