Thank you very much for your help. I hope that in the future you could discuss these ramifications in the update version details when the updates have this type of effect. It is requiring a fair amount of manual changes.

OK – I changed the button to fancy=0 and it is working now. So I have to change every button manually? Every time there is an update, will these button settings change?

Thank you.

Thank you. I tried that but still get the same result with the “View Details” link showing instead of the button.

This is an example of a button:
[sdm_download id=”15674″ fancy=”3″ new_window=”1″ color=”red” ?button_text=”Download Brochure”]

The website is a password-protected portal, however, I can show you screen shots. I am working on my staging site.

Everything is updated in the staging site and here is an example of the problem. This is a screenshot of the issue where the button gets replaced with “View Details” link:

Here is the screenshot of the page it takes you to when you click the “View Details” link:

Yes, I updated everything (all needed plugins, site theme, WP Bakery Page Builder, WordPress). The site is working perfectly with all these updates. When I update the Simple Download Monitor, I get the button loss.

I believe it could be related to the button code update that was done in the last update of the plugin. I have coded Fancy=3 for my little simple button with text that I change for different places in the site. It looks like SDM has changed something with that code.

Also, when you click the “View Details” link it takes you to another page with a button with the default “Download Now!” text that will download the item. I had it configured to simply do the download (open the document for a PDF or JPEG).

Here is what my code looks like inside the WordPress Custom CSS plugin:

.sdm_download{
background: #d22026;
background-color: #d22026;
border-color: none !important;
box-shadow: none !important;
color: white !important;
text-shadow: none !important;
}
.sdm_download:hover{
background: #d22026
background-color: #d22026;
color: #3CFAF4;
border-color: none !important;
text-shadow: none !important;
box-shadow: none !important;
}

So it has been a few months since using the solution from mbrsolution to make red buttons in Simple Download Monitor. It was working great. Now after several updates on my website, on the front end the short code no longer creates a button, nor does it display the text I wrote in it. Instead you only see underlined text that says “View Details”. The text in the short code says “Download Brochure”.

The short code has not changed, but does not display what it is supposed to.

Can someone help with this issue?

Thank you

Thank you! This is a great solution. It worked well. I’m not sure how, but I’m guessing I can no longer choose the button color from the user interface.

Great – I will check it out. Thank you!

Thank you. I guess I will have to change search plugins. Do you have a recommendation? I just need a good in-site search.

Yes – that is the one.

Hello Harish – thank you for your reply. I think this is not an issue, so please disregard.

Thank you.

Thank you. Can you also tell me where to insert these hooks? What file and where in the file? Can you show an example? Much appreciated!
I tried the Hashtagger plugin but it did not seem to do anything.
