I think it is worse now… every page I have now shows this new Yoast Navigation at the top and I don’t want that at all.
I just want the WPDM category to show like it is supposed to in the download files pages.

I contacted theme.co and there is no way of making it work, so I am now having to use the Yoast SEO plugin as you suggested.
I have it installed but unsure the setting for it to make the category show correctly.
I added the code in the PHP as directed by Yoast and went to “Advanced” and enabled the Breadcrumb.
I am looking at the section for “Taxonomy to show in breadcrumbs for post types” and there are 3 different dropdowns there for Posts, Downloads, Portfolio (none, tag, category, format). I have tried all of them and all I get is a navigation (ie: Home EverQuest Default Old) list above the main post.

Ohhh you edited the shortcode in the Page, I see it now, thank you!

So, how do I utilize the archive page, confused. If it shows every file, why use it?

Thank you for fixing this 🙂
I didnt see any edits to the PHP, what was the fix?

Ah ok thank you.

I use the X-Theme by theme.co
I did some more searching and this code added to the CSS fixed the issue.

.single .entry-featured {
display: none !important;
}

all good now, thanks for steering me in the right direction

Oh ok that’s a good idea, thanks!

This has been fixed!

Apparently “Jetpack” plugin was the culprit.
As soon as I disabled it, the sidebar was normal as it should be.

I did add rounded corners on the thumbnail though.
The only way I could do that was to add custom CSS for

.w3eden .thumbnail a > img,
.w3eden .thumbnail > img {
border-radius: 6px;
}

unless you know of another way I could had done that easier?

I think I might know the problem…

That is what I did already.
It does NOT affect showing the “featured image” ABOVE it, on that same page.

Well, there used to be an actual full filename.ext (ie: default_old.zip) in my page and now I get (ie: default old) after the last update.

That is fine for now but that doesn’t fix the issue of it long term that it is supposed to be automatic like every other plugin.

Editing the CSS to the following does “hide” the image, but now my Theme’s Portfolio is broken because it uses Featured Image.

.has-post-thumbnail .entry-featured {
display:none;
}

So it looks like I need some other method to have the thumbnail preview icon to show on the sidebar, link templates and the Dashboard.

Is there maybe a 2 shortcodes for this?
– shortcode for actual full filename.ext (ie: default_old.zip)
– shortcode for the “file title” of the filename that the system creates from your filename.ext? (ie: default old)
– shortcode for actual Download name that you named in Package Title (ie: Default Old)

For now I went back and edited both PHP files until you can get back to me.

I figured it out.
You have the last line in “class.TopDownloads.php” commented out somehow, which is stopping it from being rendered.

Change:
//add_action(‘widgets_init’, create_function(”, ‘return register_widget(“WPDM_TopDownloads”);’));

To:
add_action(‘widgets_init’, create_function(”, ‘return register_widget(“WPDM_TopDownloads”);’));

Installing a package manually makes the list in WPDL green saying “updated”, so that is a work-around, and the Upgrades folder in FTP is now empty again.

Were you able to figure out the 2 slashes in the File Management (frontend uploader)?

Hmm, nevermind on the sidebar… Apparently that is specifically set via the Appearance–> Widgets page where there is a Link Template option in the actual widget. Looks like I need to customize one at some point.

Very confusing….

Still no clue on what Link Templates do vs. the FrontEnd “Category Page Options” section in Settings…

As soon as I add a featured image, the sidebar on the right then shows that picture in full-size….bizarre.

I removed all references of “.instagram” from the css file in the wpdm-button-templates folder and is fine now. You might want to do the same.
