Even if I use order=”asc” in the shortcode it still defaults to descending order. Shahriar Nov 10, 2015 Log in to Reply Use tinymce button to insert shortcode. There might be some error in your shortcode. jmcewan Dec 2, 2015 Log in to Reply Great add on, much better for larger quantities of downloads. I had a few questions: 1) Is it possible to hide/remove the two ‘Order By’ columns in the Compact layout? I do not want to have that functionality. 2) Can I rename ‘Packages’ to ‘Downloads’ anywhere? 3) For some reason, subcategories are displaying beneath a particular main category when using the Compact layout. I do not want them to show. Could this be because they are three levels down (main>secondary>third)? Thanks! jmcewan Dec 2, 2015 Log in to Reply I just noticed that all of my subcategories are listed. Can I change this at all? cbournak1 Dec 3, 2015 Log in to Reply Hi, it seems like the shortcode doesn’t totally work in a text widget? ruditrip Aug 12, 2016 Log in to Reply Is it possible to hide the number count next to each category? ruditrip Oct 26, 2016 Log in to Reply Massive problem…. using this addon however url /?wpdmtask=get_downloads&pg=4626&category=&cp=26 renders an un-styled page where all protected files are downloadable without being logged in / or having the correct access.

CScience Jul 7, 2022 Log in to Reply Hello, Are we able to create multiple directories based on different parent categories instead of one directory page? Patrick Meppe Aug 5, 2022 Log in to Reply Hello there, we just purchased a developer license for this add on. The installation & activation were done without a problem. However the shortcode we wish to use on a page is not being converted at all. wpdm_archive_filter Did we miss a step in the process?

Using the shortcode model “wpdm_archive_filter” I noticed that the tags registered in the posts are not displayed in the “Tags” field. Another observation is that in the “Categories” field, when there are more than three ascending categories, the order of the options is misconfigured. Using the shortcode “wpdm_category_blocks” it is not possible to create a visualization of a category within the other as in the example: “Main category > Subcategory > …”. When accessing the main category, the subcategories do not appear. Shahjada Aug 27, 2023 Log in to Reply Tags with wpdm pro is different from regular post tags. And may you please explain your category observation a little more. kishor kumar Jan 17, 2024 Log in to Reply how to show the left sidebar with the category on the front kishor kumar Jan 17, 2024 Log in to Reply Hi, I need to get support to show the left sidebar with the category when clicking the primary menu Shahjada Jan 18, 2024 Log in to Reply please post in forum https://www.wpdownloadmanager.com/support/forum/download-manager-pro/ welswebmaster Mar 6, 2024 Log in to Reply Hi team, One issue I’m finding is that when at page view after pressing the “+” icon it doesn’t appear in the cart. What am I missing? Using this shortcode which displays well for me. [wpdm_archive_flat orderby=”title” order=”DESC”] Thanks for the support. welswebmaster Mar 6, 2024 Log in to Reply Disregard.
