    I am trying to create a “Downloads” page with downloadable attachments categorized into several groups by file type, content type, etc. Anyway, I prefer to use the individual attachment shortcode to insert into the copy of the page, so that I can manually categorize. The way I think the Download attachments (plural) shortcode works will basically only dump them randomly into the page copy as I add them in the metabox. This way doesn’t give me any control over categorization. So, I thought I could try playing with the shortcode text itself – adding/subtracting/modifying from the “attachments”shortcode, but nothing seems to work. Then I dove into the shortcodes.php under the plugin “includes” directory and added the desired parameters under the array in the code. This still didn’t work. What am I missing and could you just tell me the shortcode to use where I can still specify the individual file and add caption, description, icon and date? Thanks!

    I found out that I needed to check “manual” for downloads placement in the plugin settings.
