From your screenshot the squeeze form looks fine to me. Please note that it uses some markup like heading 2 and heading 3. The font color and style of some of those elements come from your theme.
If a user is subscribed already, then it will ignore the subscription part.
Is it only on that one page with a particular download item? Are you using caching on this site by any chance?
By default, wordpress uploader doesn’t allow you to upload many different file types for security reasons.
Let me know if the following addon helps you to upload the excel file to your wp site:
Looks like you have set the “white” button style in the settings of this plugin. You can override it by using the following CSS tweak:
.sdm_download.white {
color: blue !important;
}In the future we will look at adding a block inverter for this. In the meantime, you can use one of the following option:
1) Simply copy and paste the shortcode (from our documentation).
2) You can insert a classic editor as a block. In the new editor search for “classic” then insert that block and you can use the shortcode inverter from there.
We are currently working on a solution that will offer the option to redirect the visitor to another page after the download. Handling this functionality is a little bit tricky. We have to do this in a way that will have a consistent behavior for this functionality across the different server setups.
The download should work fine. You can use our following HTTPS/SSL plugin to force all of your URLs to redirect to the “HTTPS” version:
Over time, you can edit your download items and add the “s” in there slowly (just to tidy things up).
You can also do this in bulk by updating it in your WordPress database table. You can do this from PHPMyAdmin of your control panel. There are plugins out there that will let you search and replace in bulk also.
That is very strange. You do not see a field name “File Thumbnail”? That field is just below the “Downloadable File” field.
This addon can download the file even if you put it outside the public_html directory. So if you put it above that folder and specify the path of the file (example: /home/your_account/downloads/my-file.pdf), the addone will be able to download it. Visitors cannot browser to that file because it is outside the “public_html” folder.
Alternatively, you can put a no-index in your “uploads” folder where you will be putting your files. That will prevent any search engines from indexing that file.
You can also put all your secret files in one particular folder and put a .htaccess file in that folder so outside world can’t access it. The plugin can download it from the server.
Regarding the shortcode not working, can I see the page where you have it so I can inspect it?
This one is a site specific issue. If the code that you are using now is working then that’s totally fine.
For the 500 error, you need to ask your hosting provider to look at the server log and give you the details. If you give us the actual error from the server log, I will be able to provide more help.
What changes did you make to the site when you started to see this error?
The update was for the main simple download monitor plugin. If your plugin version is v3.7.4.2 or higher then you are fine:
