Hi Nayeem,
Please press them again as this is some pretty critical functions of the software and it seems like it’s not too complicated of a fix (sort functions on the queried data). I would really hope this is something they can fix as a core feature of the software quickly.
Kind regards,

Hello, just checking on the status of this issue and curious if there is an estimated timeframe it will be fixed? We currently have a number of documents that need to be sorted alphabetically and have no means of doing that. Thanks!

Hi Nayeem,

You answered my question… I was curious if there was any relationship between the admin template tools, and a PHP template script whereby one could have more control over the design of the template in wp-admin (say for non-developers managing the site), while any coding would be done in the PHP side.

Be well!

Hi Nayeem,

Appreciate the help stepping through this process. I’ve looked through the directory at the PHP templates in /wp-content/plugins/download-manager/src/Package/views/link-templates but I don’t see any files there that correspond to the custom template I created in wp-admin with the Create Link Template button.

Can you give some more detail on how I link custom PHP to the custom template I created in admin?

Thanks!

Hi Nayeem,

Thanks for this info, just to be clear on my end, I’m using the built in Template tool in the wp-admin section which I believe is just HTML, CSS, and JS, where would I put this code using the tools outlined?

Thanks!

Thanks for looking into it.

When issues like this are reported (and the other one I did about the template list), do you post an update back to here when it’s fixed or do I just keep an eye out in release notes? Do issues like that have a long road map to turn around or are they often pretty quick to fix?

Thanks!

Thanks for the info, I got this working as needed.

Hi Nayeem,

Thanks for this, and just to confirm my thinking. Currently there isn’t an option to apply if/then logic within the template manager/editor itself, correct? I will need to copy files from src into my child theme and edit those and then address any changes as new updates role out with the WPDM plugin?

Also, I’m using ACF so that’s good to know I can add the field and access it with the template tool.

Again, I basically want to combine a video and corresponding PDF document that compliments that video. I don’t think there is an option natively within WPDM to do that (correct me if I’m wrong), so I’m hoping to make something work with the templates. However, at times there might not be a video, only the PDF, thus my interest in some if/then capabilities in the template layout to only display the video button if the link is defined (in an ACF field) on the package.

Another option, separate from the ACF field, it seems I can add a youtube URL to the package. In the same package I’d have PDf file and the Youtube link. Is there a function in the link templates tool that will let me select files within the package? I see I can pull the [file_list], I’m not seeing if there is an option that lets me pull file_1, file_2, etc.

Be well!
