WordPress Download Monitor is my popular plugin for managing files available for download in WordPress – version 3.3 is a major update containing many new features and improvements.

Version 3.3 (beta) is now available for beta testing to ensure this is a hassle free update when released officially. I would appreciate any feedback, praise and bug reports in the comments. Read more about the new features and grab it after the break.

Mahousive update to Download Monitor (3.2)

Today I completed the update for the WordPress Download Monitor Plugin – many tweaks, fixes, and features added. There were no changes to the database structure so people upgrading should be fine. Here is the list from the change log:

• {user} tag added for custom formats
• ‘autop’ option fix
• Download page buttons applied with CSS so they are easier to customise/translate.
• Fix for pagination bug after editing a download
• Category output fix on edit downloads screen
• Category urls on download page use ID rather than name to prevent errors when cats have the same names.
• exclude_cat added to download_page shortcode
• Localised ‘hits’ ‘date’ ‘title’ on download page
• Option to disable the download logging
• Read file ‘chunked’ some people found large files were corrupted so this should help (fingers crossed)
• Added show_tags option to download page – displays x amount of tags on the download page.
• File Browser root setting and download.php logic/mime types modified thanks to Jim Isaacs (jidd.jimisaacs.com)
• Interface Improvements
• Bulk edit categories, custom fields, tags, member only downloads
• Added roles for download monitor admin – should be able to use with a role manager plugin if you want anyone other than admin to access the admin section e.g. http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/capsman/
• Change redirect after add
• Edit Cat names/parents
• Dedicated tags and thumbnails fields (they still use meta table though)

And yes, those category link bugs are fixed at long last, and you can edit category names finally. Phew!

WordPress Download Monitor Plugin

Whilst posting bits and bobs on my blog, I’ve never had a consistent way of linking to files and recording download hits.

Therefore, I have created the ‘WordPress Download monitor plugin, to handle uploading, links, and to monitor download hits.

There is a newer version of this plugin, view its page here!
