    Is it possible to use the extra Attributes (like display_count, display_icon etc) not only with [download-attachments] shortcode but with [download-attachment] too?

    I want to display file size and hits for a single file somewhere within a post.

    Thanks!

    It’s not possible to use those attributes for [download-attachment], while this is intended for quick, inline attachment download link display. But you can easily achieve that with [download-attachments] shortcode, by entering an attachment ID, removing list styling, download attachments title and other things you don’t need.

    Thanks! I am new to WordPress and I am still not familiar with shortcodes.

    Very nice work you have done with DA. I gave it 5 stars and a really favorable review in wordpress.org!

    The below line has been added to the below post right under the featured image. The “Downloads List Display” from settings has been set to “manually”.

    [download-attachments include=”1359″ display_user=”true” style=”” title=””]

    As you can see for some reason, attributes are ignored. Any suggestions?

    Please make a plugin update first. (and set your style to “none”)

    Plugin updated and style set to “none” in the previous post (http://vgargan.gr/education/iliko-didaskalias-fisikis-g-gimnasiou/) with the same syntax ([download-attachments include=”1359″ display_user=”true” style=”none” title=””])

    As you can see some attributes are still not functional

    1) the user is not displayed
    2) all the attachments are displayed although only one is chosen

    Thanks!

    The boolean value is false or true (without brakcets), 0 or 1. So this should work:

    [download-attachments container=”” title=”” style=”none” display_icon=false display_user=true]

    The CSS styling is up to you.

    OK. But what about the include attribute?

    As I mentioned all the attachments are displayed although only one is chosen (include=”1359″)

    Sorry, it would be safer to use it with 0 or 1 (with brakcets) like that:
    [download-attachments container=”” title=”” style=”none” display_icon=”0″ display_user=”1″]

    It looks that include and explude parameters don’t work properly. We’ll push an update shortly.

    OK, I will wait for your update.

    Don’t forget to update your Documentation with the below guidelines.

    Sorry, it would be safer to use it with 0 or 1 (with brakcets) like that:
    [download-attachments container=”” title=”” style=”none” display_icon=”0″ display_user=”1″]

    We just did both – updated documentation and the plugin itself.

    Hi there!

    I didn’t wanted to start a new topic for my problem, but it seems, with the latest update the [download-attachments] shortcode not working for me. (It shows only the <pre> tags whatever attributes I use)
    Has anyone else reported such problems or I just can’t configure the plugin properly?

    Thanks!

    Daniel, I insist you create a new topic on that one and please provide a link to your site.
