Problem with soundload url

or example like this
https://soundcloud.com/theheatwave/five-million-rewinds/download

It cannot tell the file format from your link.

You can turn off download forcing via a function in your theme’s functions.php. So if your download ID was 25 for this particular file, you’d do:

add_filter( 'dlm_do_not_force', 'do_not_force_by_id' );

function do_not_force_by_id( $do_not_force, $download ) {
if ( $download->id == '25' ) return true;
return $do_not_force;
}

To not force all downloads its easier:

add_filter( 'dlm_do_not_force', '__return_true' );

thnx a lot ?? can you add in next update this option on download files so we choose if we want with or without force the file?

Hmm, if i add this in my functions.php

add_filter( 'dlm_do_not_force', '__return_true' );

This works fine with external URLs but my internal PDFs could not be opened in the browser anymore because the .htaccess in the folder “/dlm_uploads/.htaccess” denies all access

Can i delete the .htaccess? Or what to do?

You can delete it, or you can upload the file elsewhere and link somewhere else.

This file protects files from direct access, but still allows the plugin to ‘read’ it and serve it (this is the part you are turning off).

is it possible to open external url in a new tab?

its dosent working this code :/

add_filter( 'dlm_do_not_force', 'do_not_force_by_id' );

function do_not_force_by_id( $do_not_force, $download ) {
   if ( $download->id == '39444' )
      return true;

   return $do_not_force;
}

the code for force all downloads:

add_filter( 'dlm_do_not_force', '__return_true' );

working
