Clicking download link directs to blank page

Please update Lana Downloads Manager for the latest version.

How to update:
1. go to “Dashboard > Updates”
2. click “Check Again” button
3. Update Lana Downloads Manager plugin to version 1.1.6

In Download edit page, please fill the File URL in File Manager section (below the text editor).
So click to the “Upload File” button and select the SVG file.

To download the file, use the Download URL (not the Post URL).

Download URL: https://www.diymaven.com/download/4017/
Post URL: https://www.diymaven.com/lana-download/4017/

You will find the Download URL in the Downloads list view (Downloads > All Downloads).

If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me.

Sincerely,
Lana Codes

Thank you. After following your directions, I now am redirected to a page that says “No file path defined.”

It works for me right now.

Download URL: https://www.diymaven.com/download/4017/
… and download Made-for-Each-Other-Valentine.svg file.

“No file path defined.” – if the File URL field is empty.

Lana Codes

Clicking the link in your reply works for me as well. However, the hotlink I created in the post (announcing the download), which uses the same URL as the one referenced above, leads to the “No file path defined” comment. I’m guessing I must be doing something wrong in the posting process, which seems pretty straightforward. Any ideas as to what I might be missing?

Thanks for your patience!

Can you copy the download URL that is in the post?

Download URL: https://www.diymaven.com/download/4017/
– If this url is in the post, it must work.

– If the url is different, so it is a different download, then the File URL is incorrect (in Download edit page, File Manager section). Or have not saved the download.

Lana Codes

I believe in trying to solve my problem by starting over, I actually made things worse. After restoring the original download and changing the corresponding URL in the post back to the original URL as well, everything seems to be working now. Thank you for all your help!

I’m glad to be able to help and find out how to solve the problem.

I wish you many successes to your website. It looks interesting and useful. ??

Lana Codes, I have a quick followup. I linked the URL of the download in question to jpg within the body of the post. Although it loads perfectly on my desktop (Mac), mobile devices result in a spinning wheel (no load). However, when one clicks the spinning wheel, the option to download appears. Might this be an issue with the URL being linked to a jpg? Something else entirely?

Thank you again.

Can you give me an exact link? Link to the page where the download button is visible.

Sincerely,
Lana Codes

Here ya go:

The download link works perfectly. So the Lana Downloads Manager works perfectly. I’ve tested on desktop and mobile too.

The image is incorrectly loaded due to the “a3-lazy-load” plugin.

Your website displays the following image:
https://i1.wp.com/www.diymaven.com/wp-content/plugins/a3-lazy-load/assets/images/lazy_placeholder.gif?zoom=1.25&resize=368%2C283

As you see, because of the “a3-lazy-load” plugin placeholder. This causes the wrong load and the infinite “load” icon.

So it is possible to deactivate the “a3-lazy-load” plugin.

The plugin author can give you more detail about the error.

Ah, yes. Lazy Load. I turned off the function for Images in Content, which seems to have fixed the issue.

THANK YOU again!!

You’re welcome. ??
