reset download counts globally

  • Hi there,

    Loving the plugin very handy in order to create private downloads for logged in users.

    I have an issue though, the site is still currently being developed so there are a lot of ‘development’ downloads against the various packages I have been making.

    I want to reset all the download and view counts but to do this manually would take quite a while. Also I tried the “clear History” option but it doesn’t actually remove anything either.

    Is there a way I can easily and globally reset all view and download counters??

    p.s.

    I also emailed a few days back in regards to taxonomy-wpdmcategory.php -> I’d like to know how I can do this for the tags as I am using it for redirections for non admin users

    For now, you can reset download history in a click from settings page, soon, we shall add a new button to clear all views and download count ??

    Download manager using post tags directly, so, for tag template, you need to see here:

    But if you want to show only downloads in your tag page, you need to specify post type wpdmpro for the loop in tag template

    Thank you for the response,

    unfortunately for some reason the clear history button doesn’t actually work for me. It could be conflicting with somwething, I havent had time to check yet.

    Yes please add some buttons to clear the views and download count. Until then is there even a location in the database you could point me to that may flush this out?

    and in regards to tags thats great thanks, I didnt realise it was standard wordpress tags, so I should be able to just create – tag-{slug}.php – now and put my redirect there. I don’t actually want the downloads to show up in the tag page as the downloads are for logged in members only, so I am redirecting the tag and category pages to the “member area” and only permitting admin users to view this as the logged in “members” have a members area that will point them to the downloads on a unique page I have created

    Anyway again just want to thank you for creating this plugin ! minor issues aside it is very good indeed

    You need to clear post metas __wpdm_download_count and __wpdm_view_count

    Thank you, I’ll look into writing a query to reset this back to 0 for now til you manage to get this added yourself ??
