Hello,

We are using WordPress Download Manager Special Pack in my site and using a shortcode as below.

“[wpdm-archive button_style=”default” link_template=”link-template-panel” items_per_page=”-1″ category=”council-agendas” order_by=”title” order=”desc”]”

We get listing of pdf in descending order but can’t get order_by: title.

SS for the same: https://share.getcloudapp.com/nOu8eLA6

We hope to get the proper way to resolve it.

Thanks in Advance.

Hello Nayeem,

Thanks for your feedback but I think you cant get our concern about that.
Here is our shortcode for the same:
[wpdm-archive button_style=”default” link_template=”link-template-panel” items_per_page=”-1″ category=”council-agendas” order_by=”title” order=”ASC”]

And, Here is SS for the same as well.

But still, we can’t get what we want like order_by: title and order: ASC.

Thanks,
Rob Hole

Hello,

It’s Working fine for us as well just need to confirm one more thing for that.

Is that possible to show Order by:title and Order:ascending by default when the page is a load for the first time?

Hi,

Please adjust the below code from your plugins > wpdm-archive-page > wpdm-archive-page.php in line number 607-608

 $order = isset($_GET['order']) ? esc_attr($_GET['order']) : 'title';
 $order_by = isset($_GET['order_by']) ? esc_attr($_GET['order_by']) : 'asc';

also, you have to adjust plugins > wpdm-archive-page > tpls> archive-page-extended.php in line number 27-45 for the design appearance,

` <span class=”col-md-6″>
<label for=”order_by”><?php echo __(‘Order By:’,’wpdm-archive-page’); ?></label>
<select name=”order_by” id=”order_by” class=”form-control wpdm-custom-select”>
<option value=”title”><?php echo __(‘Title’,’wpdm-archive-page’); ?></option>
<option value=”date”><?php echo __(‘Publish Date’,’wpdm-archive-page’); ?></option>
<option value=”modified”><?php echo __(‘Last Updated’,’wpdm-archive-page’); ?></option>
<option value=”view_count”><?php echo __(‘View Count’,’wpdm-archive-page’); ?></option>
<option value=”download_count”><?php echo __(‘Download Count’,’wpdm-archive-page’); ?></option>
<option value=”package_size_b”><?php echo __(‘Package Size’,’wpdm-archive-page’); ?></option>
</select>
</span>
<span class=”col-md-6″>
<label for=”order”><?php echo __(‘Order:’,’wpdm-archive-page’); ?></label>
<select name=”order” id=”order” class=”form-control wpdm-custom-select”>
<option value=”ASC”><?php echo __(‘Ascending Order’,’wpdm-archive-page’); ?></option>
<option value=”DESC”><?php echo __(‘Descending Order’,’wpdm-archive-page’); ?></option>

</select>
</span>`

Hello Nayeem,
