Hi – the question is pretty general, that’s just an example link.

Question stands, I don’t want the file info page, I just want a direct link to the file.

If I have a site hosted on a Windows box, inside a corporate intranet with no access outside, will my key continue to work or not? AFAIK it’s not common to have Curl on Windows either.

It should be noted that the PDF viewer basically is handing your PDF to Google and letting them convert and display it. So if you’re using this in an intranet with restricted access it may not work. Similarly if you have privacy concerns you should probably not be enabling the preview feature. The plugin should probably note this somewhere. In short, the preview is not a function of the plugin, it’s leveraging a Google service.

Understood – just looking for any insight you might have on why tags work (by slug) but categories (by category ID) do not. Is this a complication of custom post types in general? I have been pulling the category ID by going to the Downloads->Categories menu, selecting a category to edit and then pulling the category ID out of the URL.

For example:

edit-tags.php?action=edit&taxonomy=wpdmcategory&tag_ID=27&post_type=wpdmpro

For that I assume 27 is the category ID, but I get no results when filtering by that ID, so I’m guessing maybe these are not really categories?

I think the upshot here is that any shortcode seems to support “paging=1”. That seems to work. The downside is that it’s not an ajax pager, so the whole page reloads.

I’ve found another workaround, perhaps you can help me find some more info to make this fully work. The theme I’m using for this project, “Newspaper 6”, uses “Visual Composer”. There is a content block I can insert that lets me specify a custom post type. It also supports filtering on categories or tags and has an ajax pager. A screenshot is attached, I’m able to get what I want with tags, but not categories. Any insight into how WPDM is working with categories?

Nevermind, unset/re-set the bootstrap settings and it seems to work now – my 2 columns are there and the ad disappeared.

Hi,

Sorry, I don’t have clearance to let 3rd parties into this intranet site. Bootsrap is enabled in settings (Font Awesome is not).

I’ll dig through the shortcode add-on and remove the code.

Unrelated, is there a way to get a list of files that span two columns?

I have the following shortcode, but perhaps the “cols” value doesn’t do what I think it does:

[wpdm_category id="human-resources,it" operator="IN" toolbar="0" cols="2" order_by="download_count" template="56ebac85a2676" item_per_page="6" order="asc"]
