[Plugin: WP Download Codes] Request for Implementation Guidance

    I’ve downloaded the plugin, installed it, and already generated my first set of download codes. However, I’m stuck and need a little guidance. How do I actually incorporate the functionality in my website?

    I’m assuming the solution isn’t to be found within the WordPress basic interface; in other words, I know I’ve got do some coding within the HTML, but I’m unsure which php file I should call with the post action of a form. Heck, I’m not even sure if that’s the correct approach I should be taking.

    I tried looking at an implementation of it at the developer’s website https://www.misantropolis.de/musik/leseliste) hoping the source code might help me understand how to move forward, but I can’t figure out what’s going on because the stylesheet elements seem to be hiding all the background activities.

    Am I missing something obvious? Am I over-engineering my next steps? Any help would be greatly appreciated!

    By the way, since there are no screenshots provided, could someone provide a link(s) to other live site examples? In addition to seeing the underlying source codes, I’d also like to see how others have visually integrated the form’s functionality.

    Thanks in advance!

    Hi,

    Just put the shortcode

    [download-code]

    somewhere in a post or in a page, and that should be it. You can customize the text snippets (e.g. the one for an incorrect code) via the plugin settings.

    Hope this helps you out.

    OK. I understand now. As I noted, I feared I was over-engineering everything. It’s so simple!

    Thanks for your help and for the great plugin.

    is there a php code snippet that can be used other than just the above shortcode? I’m trying to implement a custom interface with it, but it doesn’t run the shortcode to display the little form, just the text. So if there is a way to call the same function with php code, I think it might work.

    thoughts?
