Downloads are zero byts

Hi Thomstark,

I am also having an issue with the zero bytes downloads while statistics are on. I discovered that the only way to get the stats logged (Desired feature) and download a usable file is by disabling the NextGen Gallery plugin. There seems to be an issue with this plugin and several wordpress file managers including your awesome File Away Plug in.
I would disable the NextGen plugin to solve the downloading issue but the site has several galleries using that plug in that I would rather not touch.

Here are other plugins having the same issue and possible solutions:

Any help on fixing this plugin conflict is much appreciated.

I have the File Away version 3.8.4

Thanks for the awesome plugin!!!

I’m trying to get a hold of the plugin author from the first link there. I’ll let you know.

Retrolab: Please try adding this to your theme’s functions.php or to a custom plugin. The Download Manager guy said this is what he did to fix his conflict (though I’m not sure it’s the same conflict).

function wpdm_skip_ngg_resource_manager($r){
    return false;
}
add_filter('run_ngg_resource_manager', 'wpdm_skip_ngg_resource_manager');

Thank you Thomstark for your prompt response.
I will try your suggestion and report back…

Thanks,
Retro

Hi Thomstark,

I am happy to report back that everything seems to be working after I added that code to the functions.php file.
I still have to do some more testing but as of right now, I have nextgen galleries and your awesome FlyAway plugin playing nicely together plus I am getting the much desired stats.

Thank you again for helping me resolve this issue,
Retro

Awesome. Glad it was as easy as that. Peace.
