All Good Things Must Come To An End

As you all know, I have been doing WordPress plugins and supporting it for the past 6 years. These 6 years of my life, I have been through my polytechnic education, my national service as well as my university education.

I just graduated from university in December 2009 and have been looking for full-time jobs. I am offered a full-time job and will be starting work on 1st February 2010.

I regret to say that I am NOT ABLE to provide support for my plugins anymore due to my full-time job commitment. I will leave this forum open and let the community help one another.

However, I WILL still update my plugins whenever I can and you still can report bugs to me via email and I will try to fix it.

Couple of things
« on: 25 January 2010, 23:23 »
My site - http://www.eteknix.com
My downloads page - http://www.eteknix.com/downloads/

Firstly, everyone is working well barring the category links, if you see the links for them are like this - http://www.eteknix.com/downloads?dl_cat=2 and link to a non-existant page.

The way i am aiming for it to look is like this - http://downloads.guru3d.com/

So that i have a page full of categories, and once clicked on, it will list the downloads in that category.

Is this possible?

Many thanks,

Andy

It is not meant to be this way. The plugin is designed in such a way that it will list down all the downloads in 1 page. Your first problem is related to the second one.

Hi, thanks for the reply.

I found a way of doing it by adding pages and sub pages.

You can see it in action here - http://www.eteknix.com/downloads/

Any idea how i change the wording from:

» Benchmark Tools | 12.7 MiB | 6 downloads to » Benchmark Tools | 12.7 MB | 6 downloads

So from MiB to MB and same with KiB to KB etc...

Thanks,

Andy

The wording are all in wp-downloadmanager.php. You can do a find and replace. KiB is the precise term not KB, wiki it if you need more info.

Thanks, all worked fine :)

In the computer hardware world, people are commonly referring to KB, MB, GB, TB etc.... Suits my site better i think.

Thanks again,

Andy

Hey, a quick thing i wondered.

http://www.eteknix.com/downloads/

As you can see from my page, i have a list of categories. Is it possible to use something that will find the amount of downloads in a category so that i can list it like:

Benchmark Tools (8)

And when a download is added it will then say (9)

Thanks,

Andy

The Template is all at WP-Admin -> Download -> Download Templates. Play around with it yourself. You may want to look at  %CATEGORY_FILES_COUNT%

I'm using an external page that doesn't use the templates.

Any ideas?

I afraid not possible. There is no function to count the individual files in each category.
