 * bnance,
 * It turns out that the download monitor plugin had a menu option “log” that does
   track downloads for registered users. The list is capable of being exported as
   a csv. The functionality is not all that robust but it worked for our limited
   needs so there was no need to develop custom functionality any further.
 * Sorry I couldn’t be more help.

 * Excuse me. I figured it out.
 * _If anyone else is wondering about this, you need to click on the pencil icon
   that appears to the right of the project title (once your inside that project)._
 * It makes sense, but it is not perfectly intuitive yet…
 * Otherwise I am very impressed with the plugin so far.

   for the most efficient way of achieving this.
 * In the meantime I worked up a solution that is working for me. You can check

   is displayed in the email sent to new users after registration.
 * I have researched for a few hours and have not found a solution.

 * [14 years, 5 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/list-taxonomy-terms-specific-to-a-post/#post-2259169)
 * What if you wanted to exclude a specific taxonomy from being displayed in the
   list?
 * Specifically, I am using a custom taxonomy of ‘current’ to control content elsewhere
   on my site. For the page I’m working on, I need to output the taxonomies for 
   each of the custom post type entries but exclude the ‘current’ term from being
   included.
 * So if a post is marked as ‘current’ and ‘sustainability’ the term list will only
   display ‘sustainability’

 * I am reposting my message since I forgot to use pastebin in my earlier post and
   therefore the code was moderated.
 * I had a similar issue. I’m not sure if this will work for your scenario but I
   will try to explain what I ended up doing.
 * I needed one page (/downloads-page) to display available downloads based on user
   type. I created 5 additional user types. There are several plugins out there 
   that will allow you to do this. Or in your case you can just use the default 
   level_0 or Level_1 capabilities to target users….
 * Anyway, I created a page template for my /downloads-page and used some conditional
   logic to determine the users capabilities and then serve them customized content
   by using the default Download Monitor shortcodes.
 * For example:
 * [http://pastebin.com/d5ZRsSg2](http://pastebin.com/d5ZRsSg2)
 * Or in your case you don’t want to use the $user_roles to target users but instead
   their capabilities you could use:
 * [http://pastebin.com/jgfLXV24](http://pastebin.com/jgfLXV24)
 * Hope that helps.

 * [14 years, 5 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-wordpress-download-monitor-adding-a-directory-not-working/#post-2181720)
 * I was able to solve my issue by simply enabling the ‘file browser option’ (set
   drop down to yes) in configurations > general options.
 * Once enabled you can use the toggle file browser option when adding a directory.
   you can chose the directory you want from the list and it writes the relative
   path for you.
 * Not sure if this will solve everyones problems but worked for me.

 * I’m wondering if there is a way to make all new images default to being marked
   as exclude when you scan the folder for new images. I want to be able to moderate
   these images that visitors upload to my ngg directory before they are automatically
   made public.
 * Does that make sense? I just need any new image in my gallery directory to be
   marked as exlude after I click “scan folder for new images”
