 * Hi,
 * I have no more access to the package settings in the “Downloads” menu of the 
   WordPress administration interface when I want to create or modify a download
   file.
 * The following sections are empty:
    – Package Settings – Lock Options – Icons
 * I am using Download Manager 3.0.8 version.
 * How can I retrieve these settings?
    Thank you for your help.
 * Best regards

 * Hi,
    It looks like a CSS conflict with any other active plugin or theme. Please
   try disabling other plugins and changing the theme temporarily.

 * Hi,
 * Thank you for your prompt response.
 * Apparently this is not the only reason because I have the same problem with other
   themes. The package settings (header) do not appear with some themes.
 * – Twenty Nineteen without CSS: same problem (header only, no sections)
    – Twenty
   Sixteen without CSS: same problem (header only, no sections) – Twenty Seventeen
   without CSS: no header and no sections – Twenty Twenty without CSS: no header
   and no sections – my theme (HashOne) without CSS: no header and no sections –
   all plugins deactivated: no sections and no header (even with Twenty Sixteen 
   and HashOne themes)
 * Could you please tell me what are the CSS elements (id and class) related to 
   the header and the sections?
    Thank you for your help.
 * Best regards

 * Hi,
    It is working fine for us with those themes, check the video: [https://www.loom.com/share/dfdea0b7569a4009aa02e105d6e8297f](https://www.loom.com/share/dfdea0b7569a4009aa02e105d6e8297f)

 * Hi,
 * I don’t know why it is not working.
    This is perhaps related to the installation
   of the Active Digital Store Option I did and later the deinstallation of the “
   Premium Packages – Sell Digital Products Securely” plugin.
 * The sections are always empty and contain only the following message:
    “Planning
   to sell your digital products? Activate Digital Store Option”
 * How can I recover the original configuration of the Download Manager plugin without
   losing the files I already added?
 * Best regards

 * “Premium Packages” is not related to that issue, did you try disabling other 
   plugins?

 * Hi,
 * Yes as I said one week ago:
 * – all plugins deactivated: no sections and no header (even with Twenty Sixteen
   and HashOne themes)

 * Hi [@shafayat-alam](https://wordpress.org/support/users/shafayat-alam/),
 * After several investigations, I discovered another problem may be related to 
   the one I described above.
    All users can access download files whatever their
   access roles even if I deactivate all access roles in the category. The problem
   did not exist before.
 * Are there missing access rights on a directory of the wp-content folder?
 * Best regards

 * Hi,
 * I did not get any answer to my last question.
 * I think your plugin is not stable and has been broken.
 * I discovered weird files in the “/wp-content/uploads/download-manager-files” 
   directory, beginning with a number and “wpdm_” and then followed by the name 
   of files.
 * Below are two examples in my directory :
 * 1572632223wpdm_<filename1>.pdf
    1579811337wpdm_<filename2>.pdf
 * All files have the following permissions :
 * Access rights: 0604
    Owner/Group: 617775 100
 * Could you please tell me why all users have access to all files regardless of
   their access rights even when all of my plugins have been deactivated?
 * Why those two files have been generated?
 * Thank you for your help.
 * Best regards

 * Hi,
    WPDM renames a file during upload with a prefix `([0-9]+)wpdm_` when another
   file with the same name already exists in the server. `Access rights` in the 
   server is not related to wpdm access settings. `0604` is server file access permission.
 * To control download manager file access, please check this doc:

 * Hi,
 * Thank you for your reply.
 * As I said at the beginning, the following sections are empty:
    – Package Settings–
   Lock Options – Icons You can see the screenshot at [https://imgur.com/Nfe4gJa](https://imgur.com/Nfe4gJa)
 * All was working fine several months ago and I don’t know what is wrong.
    I deactivated
   all plugins with the same result.
 * Best regards
