[Plugin: WordPress Download Monitor] Saves files with wrong URL when using the "Add directory" tool (4 posts)

    Hi,

    When I use the "Add directory" tool, the URL's of my files look like:

    http://vitalcoaching.com/hermes/bosweb/web296/b2965/ipw.vitalcoaching/public_html/files/d2/two_types_of_men.mp3

    instead of

    http://vitalcoaching.com/files/d2/two_types_of_men.mp3

    --------------

    This doesn't happen when I upload the file individually, only when I upload the full directory.

    Any ideas?

    Thanks!

    I'm getting the same problem. I had a bunch of broken links when I used that feature. I had to manually fix each link. This is the way I add nearly every file to the monitor. Hope they fix it soon =(

    It also happens when I do single files using the file browser.

    Links added from the file selector, and via add directory, are supposed to be relative links (e.g. /dir/dir/file). This is so links can be added to resources outside of the wp installation directory.

    Nonetheless they are broken. They were fine until the last release.
