I hope that in the future you could discuss these ramifications in the update version details when the updates have this type of effect. It is requiring a fair amount of manual changes. * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [[Simple Download Monitor] Add button color](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/add-button-color/) * Thread Starter [lwolf](https://wordpress.org/support/users/lwolf/) * (@lwolf) * [6 years, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/add-button-color/page/2/#post-11586379) * OK – I changed the button to fancy=0 and it is working now. So I have to change every button manually? Every time there is an update, will these button settings change? * Thank you. * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [[Simple Download Monitor] Add button color](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/add-button-color/) * Thread Starter [lwolf](https://wordpress.org/support/users/lwolf/) * (@lwolf) * [6 years, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/add-button-color/#post-11584960) * Thank you.

I am working on my staging site. * Everything is updated in the staging site and here is an example of the problem.

The site is working perfectly with all these updates. When I update the Simple Download Monitor, I get the button loss. * I believe it could be related to the button code update that was done in the last update of the plugin. I have coded Fancy=3 for my little simple button with text that I change for different places in the site. It looks like SDM has changed something with that code. * Also, when you click the “View Details” link it takes you to another page with a button with the default “Download Now!” text that will download the item. I had it configured to simply do the download (open the document for a PDF or JPEG). * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [[Simple Download Monitor] Add button color](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/add-button-color/) * Thread Starter [lwolf](https://wordpress.org/support/users/lwolf/) * (@lwolf) * [6 years, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/add-button-color/#post-11566490) * Here is what my code looks like inside the WordPress Custom CSS plugin: * .sdm_download{ background: #d22026; background-color: #d22026; border-color: none !important; box-shadow: none !important; color: white !important; text-shadow: none !important; } .sdm_download:hover{ background: #d22026 background-color:# d22026; color: #3CFAF4; border-color: none !important; text-shadow: none !important; box-shadow: none !important; } * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [[Simple Download Monitor] Add button color](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/add-button-color/) * Thread Starter [lwolf](https://wordpress.org/support/users/lwolf/) * (@lwolf) * [6 years, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/add-button-color/#post-11566471) * So it has been a few months since using the solution from mbrsolution to make red buttons in Simple Download Monitor. It was working great. Now after several updates on my website, on the front end the short code no longer creates a button, nor does it display the text I wrote in it. Instead you only see underlined text that says “View Details”. The text in the short code says “Download Brochure”. * The short code has not changed, but does not display what it is supposed to. * Can someone help with this issue? * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [[Simple Download Monitor] Add button color](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/add-button-color/) * Thread Starter [lwolf](https://wordpress.org/support/users/lwolf/) * (@lwolf) * [7 years, 2 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/add-button-color/#post-11292113) * Thank you * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [[Simple Download Monitor] Add button color](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/add-button-color/) * Thread Starter [lwolf](https://wordpress.org/support/users/lwolf/) * (@lwolf) * [7 years, 2 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/add-button-color/#post-11292060) * Thank you! This is a great solution. It worked well. I’m not sure how, but I’m guessing I can no longer choose the button color from the user interface. * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [[Simple Download Monitor] 502 Error in search](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/502-error-in-search-2/) * Thread Starter [lwolf](https://wordpress.org/support/users/lwolf/) * (@lwolf) * [7 years, 2 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/502-error-in-search-2/#post-11277486) * Great – I will check it out.

Can you also tell me where to insert these hooks? What file and where in the file? Can you show an example? Much appreciated! I tried the Hashtagger plugin but it did not seem to do anything.
