• After updating this morning to 3.0.93 all the download links were replaced with

    Warning: Use of undefined constant WPDM_USE_GLOBAL – assumed ‘WPDM_USE_GLOBAL’ (this will throw an Error in a future version of PHP) in /home/carnethy/public_html/wp-content/plugins/download-manager/libs/class.FileSystem.php on line 379

    , with the line alternating between 379 and 388.

    I’ve restored the previous version and things are back to normal.

    The error message replaced not just the download code but the associated image. So everything including the h3 tags eg <h3 style="float: left; overflow: auto; width: 240px;"><a href="https://carnethy.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/04/competitions-journalcover.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-97495" src="https://carnethy.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/04/competitions-journalcover.jpg" alt="" width="209" height="300"></a>[wpdm_package id='97491' template="link-template-default-wdc"]</h3>

    It works ok in a localhost installation so this is rather puzzling.

  • I have got the same issue following the update.

    As a quick fix, I updated the class.FileSystem.php file to comment out line 388 and commented the WPDM_USE_GLOBAL value out of the function parameters.
    /*$crop = WPDM_USE_GLOBAL,*/

    Same here, but I’m not that good in coding myself. When I try to insert a download into a blog post, it returns with an error, I cannot save the blog post.

    How do I restore the previous version of Download Manager? Is that an easy thing to do? Or I’ll just wait for the fix.. ??

    I got rid of the warning by replacing WPDM_USE_GLOBAL with the value zero in the two places it appears.

    # diff class.FileSystem.php.orig class.FileSystem.php
    379c379
    <     public static function imageThumbnail($path, $width, $height, $crop = WPDM_USE_GLOBAL, $usecache = true){
    ---
    >     public static function imageThumbnail($path, $width, $height, $crop = 0, $usecache = true){
    388c388
    <         $crop = $crop === WPDM_USE_GLOBAL ? get_option('__wpdm_crop_thumbs', false) : $crop;
    ---
    >         $crop = $crop === 0 ? get_option('__wpdm_crop_thumbs', false) : $crop;

    @fietsjunkie – you really should have a backups plugin! I just reverted the plugins to the previous day’s saved versions. Another way is to use something like WP Rollback.

    Not backing up your site is a recipe for great unhappiness.

    We have the same problem.

    @digbymaass WP Rollback only gets version 3.0.4 as the last version (as to be found here: https://www.ads-software.com/plugins/download-manager/advanced/ ) – so with this plugin WP Rollback is no alternative. Don’t ask me why “WordPress Download Manager”‘s version history is so incomplete here…

    We just took the plugin’s folder from yesterday’s backup and got back to version 3.0.92 waiting for this bug to get fixed by the plugin author and hoping he will test his fix better than the current release.

    Since this bug is about 10 hours old now one should expect that the author will do something very soon. Hopefully.

    @doffine WP Rollback definitely showed me 3.0.92
    I used it but for some reason it messed up my display (I do use a lot of custom css). I know logically it shouldn’t, but it did. So I reverted from backup.

    @digbymaass that’s strange – WP Rollback only showed me the versions to be found at https://www.ads-software.com/plugins/download-manager/advanced/ under “Previous Versions”.

    Anyway the only possibility for us was to upload the plugin folder from yesterday’s backup…

    But there is already version 3.0.94 ready for update. But I won’t risk that until the author writes something into this thread here or at least there will be a changelog entry that is still missing at the moment.

    Same problem 1 hr ago. Tried 3.0.94 (showed a few minutes ago in the WP-Plugin Center) and it fixed it.

    But now in the new installation, PDF download-files will not showed in a browser’s new window (tried different browsers – same issue). Unchecked and again checked in the settings, but will not work. Any ideas?

    Yes, we have fixed the constant definition warning with the v3.0.94

    @gertgeorge Please give me your URL to check, we didn’t change anything around the download function in recent updates.

    Thank you for the quick updates @shafayat-alam!! Much appreciated!

    Hello:
    I have version 3.0.94 installed and it gives me the same problem.
    Can you help me?

    v3.0.94 fixed it for me

    I just went back to version 3.0.9 and it works for me. But 3.0.94 gives me an error downloading the files. Is this happening to someone? Thank you!
