When I add a download. a page of this download is automatically created. But I only use these files by the short codes. I don’t need to create pages.
Then I would like these pages not to be created. Or that they are not visible in my search results.
How can I please do this?
Thank you very much for your help.
Hi,
You can also check from the Media Library
files protection option like the image attached,
you will also find the file shortcode there. please let me know if it works for you.
Thanks.
Hello
I use a translator, maybe that’s why you didn’t understand my request. I apologize for that. I will try to be more precise and illustrate my problem.
I have a lot of downloads as you can see here:
I also have articles:
In my articles, I present the file I propose for download via a shortcode of this file:
So far, so good. Everything’s working perfectly.
But the problem is that when the user searches for an item with a search module, the downloads are also displayed, like this:
and when we click we arrive on this page:
But I don’t want this page to exist because I don’t want to use it. I would like that in my search results. Only my articles will appear
Thank you for your help
Your requirements are there should be articles/titles will be displayed, but the permalink will not be dynamic. let me know.
Thanks.
Sorry for some late. Yes, possible, Please, give your temporary wp-admin login details in a private reply for the adjustments and also the search result page URL.
Thanks.
Hello
Thank you for your intervention, but it didn’t have the desired result, on the contrary.
What did you change? Because the result isn’t what I wanted.
You can see in the picture above that the downloads (red) and the articles (green) are still displayed.
The only change is when you click on them. They don’t open anymore, it redirects us to “#”.
I found a trick to put all the download pages on visibility off, I’ll do it manually …
Can you go back to the action done on my site please because she didn’t solve my problem, on the contrary.
Thanks for trying to help me anyway.
Ok, all have been reverted. you can check now. It is as like as before. please let me know if you need further assistance.
Thanks.
Hello
I can confirm that everything is fine as it was before. Thank you,
Do you have the possibility to set the visibility of all downloads automatically from public to private or do I have to do it manually?
Thank you
No, It is a WordPress default feature, If you want to restrict download packages with user roles, you can do it by Allow Access
option by giving access to certain users. There is also available bulk apply option for all packages, the add on called, https://www.wpdownloadmanager.com/download/wpdm-default-values/
