Hi Richard, is it possible to get a download button anywhere at the site, for example in a blog post?

Right now, I have a free test poster with WooCommerce product id 1645. So, in my blog post I tried to add this:

[download_now id="1645" text="Get it Free!"]

I'm using theme OceanWP and Elementor. I've tried this shortcode as:

  • Text block
  • Shortcode block
  • HTML block

All three options result in the numer 1 at the screen, not clickable. Like this:

    Very strange mate, I'd like to get a look at your product and my plugin settings. Can you send an email through the contact form with your site address and set me up a temporary admin user account?

    Shortcode works fine in my site so maybe there's a weird thing happening somewhere in the code.

    Closing this one off now. Improved support for page builder themes and plugins will be coming in an update (very soon) 🙂
