    Try the following:

    1) Edit the download item in question.
    2) Click on the “Dropbox” button which will open the dropbox file select popup wondow.
    3) In the top right hand corner of that dropbox file select window, there is an option to “switch account”. Try that option which should let you enter the API key of your other account that you want to use.

    Just FYI – We are also working on adding an option to “Hide The Name” field on the squeeze form.

    It’s a HTML/CSS class for that input field. sf_tpl_3 refers to Squeeze form template 3.

    Try the following CSS tweak. That should hide the name for the squeeze form template that you are using:

    
    .sdm_sf_tpl_3_input_name {
      display: none;
    }

    Post the URL of the page (containing the squeeze form) so I can inspect the HTML and CSS code of the site to see if I can get some clues.

    You can do the following to hide the “Name” field from the squeeze form.

    #1) Enable the “Make Name Field Not-Required” option in the settings menu of the squeeze form addon.

    #2) Next, you can add a CSS tweak to your site to hide the name field.

    
    .sdm_squeeze_name {
      display: none;
    }
    

    The CSS tweak can be added from the “Appearance -> Customize -> Additional CSS” section of your WordPress admin dashboard.

    The squeeze form will cut a long title to make it fit withing our design guidelines. The following page has screenshots that shows the optimum designs for the squeeze forms.

    Edit your title and make it shorter. You can add extra text in the description section and use fancy=”1″ template to show description

    Use the “button_text” parameter to customize the text in your language. There are examples in the above page that shows how to use the “button_text” parameter. Below is an example shortcode:

    
    [sdm-squeeze-form id="210" fancy="0" button_text="My Custom Button Text"]

    The sidebar is controlled by your theme. If you do the following theme test, you will see how the sidebar behavior changes with the theme change:

    Test for Plugin and Theme Conflict Before Posting an Issue or a Bug

    So you will need to ask your theme developer as to how the sidebar can be hidden.

    Normally, you maybe able to edit the “single post” template of your theme and customize it for the downloads custom post type.

    The other option is to put your download item on a page that you create. So you create a landing page then embed the download item there. That way you will be able to have more customization control on that landing page. The following documentation explains how you can use a shortcode to embed a download item on any page that you create:

    Deliver the downloads by email is the option to use for this.

    The double opt-in is for Mailchimp signup. That won’t really help if you are letting them download just after entering the info.

    We have made a change in the plugin to accept this character in the download URL field. That should resolve this.

    Let me investigate this a little more and get back to you.

    This is actually done for security. Can you rename your files to not have “empty space” characters? Empty space character (which gets converted to % symbol) is actually not a valid character for the URL.

    It is okay to have spaces in the file name on your computer (Example: My eBook.zip) but remember when you upload it on the server it becomes a URL and a proper URL should not have spaces.

    For example, the following is a good URL:

    
    http://www.example.com/my-ebook.zip
    

    Where as the following is not a good URL since it contains empty space character:

    
    http://www.example.com/my eBook.zip

    Hi Rupert, Please post the URL of the page where you have the squeeze form so I can inspect the HTML code. Then I should be able to give the necessary CSS tweak for what you requested.

    This is now possible to do with the following shortcode.

    Displaying All Downloads from a Particular Category

    Example Usage: the following shortcode will display all downloads that belong to category ID 5 or category ID 6

    
    [sdm_show_dl_from_category category_slug="5,6" fancy="1"]
