    The name and email fields are required at the moment. I will add an option in the next version to not require the name field.

    No, it is not supposed to insert a relative URL. That is likely a configuration issue in your WP install somewhere. By default, the media library is supposed to insert the full URL of the file.

    In the media inserter, do you see a button called “Select File URL” or something like that? What version of WordPress are you using?

    At the moment it doesn’t have an option for it.

    Looks like this server is not allowing the call to the get_headers() function of PHP. Can you please ask your hosting provider why it is not allowing the call to the following function of PHP?

    The download should normally start while the user stays on the page (where the squeeze form is).

    Alternatively, try the following feature:

    Downloads -> Squeeze Form -> Settings -> Deliver the Download via Email

    Let me know if that feature works better for your setup.

    In this case your image looks to be tall/long. You need to edit your image and make it smaller. Then re-upload the smaller image. Whatever you upload is what the plugin will show. So you need to resize it. If you can make the image more square, then it will take less space vertically.

    Alternatively, you can hide the image altogether using CSS or using fancy=”0″ template.

    You can use the following CSS tweak to make the font-size of the title smaller.

    .sdm_sf_tpl_1_title {
    font-size: 10px !important;
    }

    After you edit the image to make it less tall/long, it should be shorter.

    That page URL you given me doesn’t have any squeeze form. Where is the squeeze form on your site so I can inspect that squeeze form? Your question is about the squeeze form right?

    I would like to see this on your site so I can inspect it. Please tell me the URL of the page.

    You should be able to use CSS to change the size a little bit. Is it too wide or too long?

    Also, there are a few different templates for the squeeze form. You can try the different templates to see if there is one that you like more.

    I think the dropbox or the s3 options are both valid options for what you explained. Lets try the dropbox one first. I have sent you a copy of the dropbox addon so you can test it out with one of your download items.

    Regarding the forcing a file to download question, the following maybe useful:

    okay so lets go step by step. The first thing is to clarify that the hidden downloads addon works exactly as we say on the following page (If you upload a file to your site and then use the addon to handle the download, it will do the job):

    Hidden/Private/Secure Downloads for Simple Download Monitor

    As I understand it from your previous reply, you want a vimeo hosted video to download. Now, that is not a file on your server so the hidden download addon can’t do anything about it. You are referring to a streaming video URL. Vimeo or YouTube doesn’t let you do that. They want you to embed the video on a webpage. A visitor to your site is not allowed to legally download a file from Vimeo.

    So my question to you is, are we still talking about a vimeo video URL download or are we talking about a file that you own and that you will upload to your own site or amazon S3 or dropbox account?

    I don’t mind checking the back-end of the site and taking a look but I won’t be able to do that on a customized version. I will need to get a standard copy of our plugin on your site then check things.

    If you temporarily remove any customization, and use the standard copy of the plugin do you see the issue?

    Is the download being handled using the secure downloads addon?

    The Dropbox addon works on its own (the hidden downloads is not required for dropbox integration). It uses the API to retrieve a file from your Dropbox account and then serve that file to the user.

    Vimeo doesn’t allow you to do hidden downloads (similar to YouTube). That’s their business model. You need to host the file on your site if you want to really hide it from other people discovering it.

    Most people use Amazon s3 or dropbox to host their video files (if they are going to offer private videos) that needs to be protected. The download monitor has an integration with S3 also.
