Thanks. I've already deactivated other search plugins. We are creating everything from a scratch with elementor using "hello elementor".
I'll install the patch asap and I'll let you know.
Wordpress Download Manager Files Not Indexed
-
Wordpress Download Manager file contents are no longer being indexed on our site. FWIW, our files are stored externally on a cloud service, and are all PDF's. We are Pro users, with an active TextMill,io license.
I have rebuilt the index a few times.
Relevant details are below.
WP Fast Total Search Pro Version 3.75.250
WPFTS Add-on for WP Download Manager Version 1.10.24
Download Manager Version 3.2.98Here is an image of the index for a sample Download Manager file with a PDF file:
Any ideas on how to resolve this?
Thanks!

I think I found the issue. The index is still rebuilding, but it's looking good.
$is_enable_external_links was not being set to true when calling GetCachedFileContent_ByLocalLink
Below are the changes I made in wpfts-add-on-for-wp-download-manager.php
This may or may not be the correct way to fix it, but, as I said, it is looking good. FWIW, There is another area in code that appears to have the same issue, bit it's for different versions of WPFTS, so it won't affect me.
I'll post an update tomorrow after the rebuild finishes to confirm whether or not this fix worked.

Reindexing is complete, and my fix does appear to have worked. Don't know whether this is the correct general fix, or just enough for my needs.
Obviously, you'll need to fix the Download Manager plugin, or my fix will just get overwritten in the next upgrade of the plugin. .And, again, there is another place in the plugin where it looks like there's the same logic error that would affect older versions of WPTFS..

Hi @magicalbrad
Many thanks for your report and for sure for your work to fix this issue. We don't face the same on our dev machine that probably caused by version difference or so.
Anyway, I will analyze this problem with deep care and for sure release a new addon version soon.
Thanks!!!

If you're not seeing this issue, my guess is that your external files are stored under the same domain as your WP instance. Our download files are accessed from a different domain. Our site is fcm.org, and the download files are served from a bitwarden.com domain.
