Support » Plugin: WP-Filebase Download Manager » Can't see files list with downloads and permissions

    It must just be since the update to WP 3.7. I swear I saw it all working several days ago. It used to be you clicked WP-Filebase>Files and got a list of files you had uploaded, along with the download count and permissions for access. Now I get a window with Manage files, and the opportunity to upload. It seems like just a wrong address to the page, but I don’t know what the right one would be. Anybody have a clue?

  • i’ve got the same problem: on admin.php?page=wpfilebase_files i only see the headings of the table with all my files, but the filelist itself isn’t visible. must be a compability problem with 3.7

    The Pro version was updated today, so here’s hoping us freebie users get an update soon. It really is a great plugin when it works, which has been most of the time until now.

    Hi,
    I had this problem and found it was a CSS conflict with another plugin – in my case WP backup to dropbox. Not sure why a WordPress upgrade would cause this, but check the HTML source of the WP-Filebase admin page and see if you can find any styling rules that are hiding the table.

    hi there,
    you’re right, WP Backup to Dropbox causes this. It’s also causes a similar issue with WPFileManger.

    There’s a CSS rule in the WP Backup to Dropbox stylesheet for the .files class:

    .files {
    	display: none;
    	margin-left: 58px;
    }

    which means you can’t see the table of files as it has this class applied. I added the following CSS rule at the end of the stylesheet:

    .widefat{
    	display:inline !important;
    	margin-left:0;
    }

    to over-ride that. The .widefat class is also applied to the files table so this should make your table visible without causing issues in the display of WP Backup to Dropbox. However, I’m no CSS expert, so if anyone wants to point out a better solution, then please do.

    Hot diggety! You rock, scampsall! Thank you!

    You need to modify:
    \wp-filebase\classes\Item.php

    adding a new role slugs:

    if( ($for_tpl && !WPFB_Core::GetOpt('hide_inaccessible')) || in_array('administrator',$user->roles) || in_array('role-x',$user->roles) || in_array('role-y',$user->roles) || ($this->is_file && $this->CurUserIsOwner($user)) )
