Hi again,

it took me a while to figure out the problem, but I finally tracked it down.

The code works fine now. Thanks.

A word of warning though, for other users:

I initially copied the shortcode not from the documentation link but from the post above mine from mra13. This forum formats the “” characters in a way that WP cannot work with – hence the shortcodes are left not working until you replace the “” with regular ones.

If you copy the code from the documentation site the “” characters are working fine.

Thanks again for your work!

Hey,

thanks so much for considering to implement these features. Much appreciated!

Much to my regret, I seem to be unable to get it to work. I copied both strings you provided, modify the ID but cannot get rid of the error message:

Error! The value of “download_info” field does not match any availalbe parameters.

I tried to modify the according values in case providing a special input format (e.g. numbers) is required but none of the values below made a change:
Size:
42,7 MB
42.7

Version
v1.0
1.0

Would you please be so kind as to have a look, what might cause the problem?

Thanks for your reply.

I must have messed it up on my side, sorry! Probably some custom css…

I just deleted the theme and did a fresh install and the plugin now works as it is supposed to.

thanks again

I tested some more and discovered, that it is the theme installed that causes the problems.

Theme twentytwelve (stripped of all custom css code) does NOT display the ticker

theme twentyfifteen, sixteen DO show the ticker.

DOes this help to track down the problem?

Thanks for the suggestion, but apparantly I have another problem not being fixed by your modification of the php code

How very cool. Thanks so much for considering my suggestions!

To complete the list of possible details for downloads, which might come in handy:

File Size, e.g. [sdm-filesize id”X”]
File Version, e.g. [sdm-fileversion id”X”]
File Date, e.g. [sdm-filedate id”X”]
Author, e.g. [sdm-author id”X”]
Description, e.g. [sdm-description id”X”]

I don’t know, if you can implement all of it and I have no clue about the effort neccessary: I’m grateful for anything of above list you can add.

Thanks again!

John
