Is there a way I can display the download count for my viewers to see?
|
|
|
|

Yes - the template tag as described in the read me file.
One user has had problems with the count not showing although nobody else has come forward with a problem. I am still trying to work out what his problem is.

I maybe dumb  but should I insert the tag for # of downloads into the post? or wp-template of the post? if I do first - it’s not parsed as HTML, you can see the code when viewing page as HTML, if I do second - how do I change the ID?
I’m totally lost, sorry for this pain in the … I cause :).

Well it would have to be in the template but, yes, then you can’t change the ID. The tag is really intended for use in places like a sidebar.
So - if you have it in a ‘post’ how can the download ID be determined?

if you insert it in post, can’t you just enter manully ID in the tag?
oh, well, i guess it’s been too much headache…

That’s not the problem. The problem is that you can’t insert php code into a post.

Yes, so I guess there’s no way to use it, if I have multiple download links…

Well - that’s up to you.
- You can still use the plugin and track downloads via the admin panel
- if you can determine HOW to identify a post that has a download on it then the tag could go in the post template which would work fine.
- And - the way I do it is that I put my plugins (which is what I track) each on a separate WP Page and I use a special page template for these. I have the template tag on the page and actually pass the value in from a custom field.
There are lots of ways of doing it but no, you can’t just put the php code into post content.
