In reply to: [Media Library Folders] My MP3 “manager”Actually it was/is “operator error!”
I AM able to upload into the sub-folders as you asserted. I was confusing what I see in the “insert media into a post” where it looks like the files are in the root, but actually reside in the sub-directories.
Sorry to have been uninformed!

In reply to: [Media Library Folders] My MP3 “manager”I can select any sub-folder, but for some reason the upload goes into the “root” (./uploads) folder then I have to move them.

In reply to: [Simple Download Monitor] SDM + Compact Audio Player?My results are a mirror of the tutorial!
After that, I used the Custom CSS plugin and “did stuff” with the text/colors, etc.
Personally, I would PREFER that the Download button be ABOVE the player, but it’s not a “show-stopper” in the default position.
THANKS for sharing the possibilities!

In reply to: [Simple Download Monitor] SDM + Compact Audio Player?The audio player’s shortcode in the SDM description is PERFECT!
Now to tweak the CSS with the WP_Custom_CSS plugin!
THANKS.

In reply to: [Simple Download Monitor] SDM + Compact Audio Player?I have a group/category of MP3s that I want registered users to be able to see in a list and each song can be “auditioned” because the Compact Audio Player plugin knows it’s location AND a button for free download of the MP3.
I know that I can get eStore to display an MP3’s description with the audio player, but there is no short_code for a category list with a download button. And because they are free to download, there doesn’t seem to be any logic to included them in the eStore. So that is why I’m focusing on SDM!

In reply to: [Simple Download Monitor] Redirect to login pageI use the Tips & Tricks “eMembership” plugin (not free, but very good value/asset).
Then I set all of the downloads (using the plugin discussed here) as requiring a free membership.
PM me if you want to see an example of how it works.

My experience has been YES but be sure that you use the COMPLETE URL in the file location field, not your local machine’s DROPBOX reference.
I have successfully used box.net and direct links to large PDFs on “archive.org”, but not DropBox or Google Drive.

In reply to: [Simple Download Monitor] Number of downloads limit by item?I’m no expert, but I’m fairly certain that if you’re only using this plugin, you will NOT be able to limit the number of downloads.
If you use their PAID plugins (eStore with eMember), I’m fairly certain that you could limit by item…
But for what its worth, WHY would you have free downloads that you want to limit?

In reply to: [Simple Download Monitor] File SizesI’ve not worked on a GoDaddy account for “several years”, but I’m pretty sure that they won’t let you change the REAL php.ini
However, ask them if they allow users to manipulate PHP using a “phprc” file.
That is a mechanism used by hosting companies to allow individual users to manipulate SOME but not all PHP configuration parameters. I use DreamHost and I’m able to manipulate the upload limit for domains I control via the “phprc” mechanism.
HTH.

In reply to: [Simple Download Monitor] Googlebot grabbing files ;)Does the root folder have an index.php that is ZERO BYTES?
If you can login at the “shell/command” line, try executing this in the root folder where the downloads are positioned:
“touch index.php”
That will create a ZERO bytes file and could convince the bots that there is nothing of value to rampage thru.
