Hi all,
Some background first – upon a fresh install of WP 5.2.2 and WPDM Free 3.0.1, I was getting the spinning wheel in Digital Asset Manager, debug showed PHP Fatal error: Call to undefined function WPDM\mime_content_type() in /home/(mysite)/wp-content/plugins/download-manager/libs/class.AssetManager.php on line 298
After some fighting with the host to enable mime_magic extension (suggestion from Stack Overflow), not sure what exactly they did, but at least switching PHP version from 5.6.4 to 7.0.33 got it working. Now, however, I am having another issue – the Asset Manager seems to completely ignore my Base Dir setting (which is presently /home/(myaccount)/public_html/(mysite)/base, and always displays my site root and everything in it.
On another note, is it at all possible to have the base dir set to a directory ABOVE my site’s root, something like /home/(myaccount)/public_html/private/
Perhaps, I am just missing something and this is normal, in which case, please forgive my ignorance.
Thank you!
