Easy Digital Downloads

Scott Kingsley Clark

Julien Liabeuf

<p>This plugin requires <a href="https://wordpress.org/plugins/easy-digital-downloads/" title="Easy Digital Downloads" rel="ugc">Easy Digital Downloads</a>. It allows downloads to be “Coming Soon” or have Custom Status text, and prevents them from being added to the cart. It does a few things:</p>
<ol>
<li>Adds a checkbox to the download configuration so you can set the download to Coming Soon / Custom Status.</li>
<li>Adds a text field to the download configuration so you can set the text to show (default “Coming Soon”).</li>
<li>Adds “Coming Soon” or your custom status text underneath the price on the admin pricing column</li>
<li>Displays “Coming Soon” or the Custom Status text instead of the price when using the [downloads] shortcode, and anywhere else where the edd_price() function has been called.</li>
<li>Prevents the coming soon download from being purchased. The plugin will remove the purchase button and stop the download from being added to cart via the edd_action. Eg ?edd_action=add_to_cart&download_id=XXX</li>
<li>Allows customers to vote on a specific download. A download’s votes are listed on the edit/publish page and on the admin dashboard</li>
</ol>
<p>** Filter examples **</p>
<p>Example filter of how you can change the default coming soon text. Copy this function to your functions.php</p>
<pre><code>function edd_coming_soon_modify_default_status_text() {
    return 'Not long now!';
}
add_filter( 'edd_cs_coming_soon_text', 'edd_coming_soon_modify_default_status_text' );
</code></pre>
<p>Example filter of how you can modify the markup of the coming soon text in the admin columns. Copy this function to your functions.php</p>
<pre><code>function edd_coming_soon_modify_admin_column_text( $custom_text ) {
    return '<h2>' . $custom_text . '</h2>';
}
add_filter( 'edd_coming_soon_display_admin_text', 'edd_coming_soon_modify_admin_column_text' );
</code></pre>
<p>Example filter of how you can modify the markup of the coming soon text on the front end. Copy this function to your functions.php</p>
<pre><code>function edd_coming_soon_modify_text( $custom_text ) {
    return '<h2>' . $custom_text . '</h2>';
}
add_filter( 'edd_coming_soon_display_text', 'edd_coming_soon_modify_text' );
</code></pre>
<p>Example filter of how you can modify the message that displays when someone tries to purchase a download that is coming soon.<br />
This message can be tested by appending ?edd_action=add_to_cart&download_id=XXX to your URL, substituting XXX with your download ID</p>
<pre><code>function edd_coming_soon_modify_prevent_download_message( $download_id ) {
    return __( 'This item cannot be purchased just yet, hang tight!', 'edd-coming-soon' );
}
add_filter( 'edd_coming_soon_pre_add_to_cart', 'edd_coming_soon_modify_prevent_download_message' );
</code></pre>

Completely Superb

Allows Coming Soon or Custom Status text instead of normal pricing for downloads in Easy Digital Downloads.

<h4>Featured Downloads is now part of EDD Core</h4>
<p>As of Easy Digital Downloads 3.5.1, the Featured Downloads addon is included in Easy Digital Downloads. You no longer need this addon to use the Featured Downloads feature.</p>
<h4>About this Addon</h4>
<p>This plugin requires <a href="https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/easy-digital-downloads/" title="Easy Digital Downloads" rel="ugc">Easy Digital Downloads</a>. It’s aimed at developers/clients who need to show a list of featured downloads.</p>
<ol>
<li>Provides a template tag so finely-tuned placement of featured downloads in your theme is possible.</li>
<li>Provides a shortcode which will simply list all the featured downloads, without the need to enter any IDs.</li>
<li>Provides a simple interface for managing featured downloads in the WordPress admin. A “feature download” checkbox will be added to each download edit/publish screen as well as the quick edit boxes. At a glance you’ll also be able to see which downloads have been featured on your website from the main download listing.</li>
</ol>
<h4>Shortcode Usage</h4>
<p>Add the “featured” attribute to the existing [downloads] shortcode provided by Easy Digital Downloads:</p>
<pre><code>[downloads featured="yes"]
</code></pre>
<h4>Template Tag Usage</h4>
<p>The following code can be used to show the featured downloads anywhere in your theme:</p>
<pre><code>echo do_shortcode( '[downloads featured="yes"]' );
</code></pre>
<p>You can include any other attributes supported by the <a href="https://docs.easydigitaldownloads.com/article/224-downloads" rel="nofollow ugc">[downloads] shortcode</a>.</p>
<h4>Building your own Query</h4>
<p>To build your own query using <a href="https://codex.wordpress.org/Class_Reference/WP_Query" title="WP_Query" rel="nofollow ugc">WP_Query</a> you can use the <code>meta_key</code> parameter with a value of <code>edd_feature_download</code>. The following example builds a simple unordered list with all the featured downloads.</p>
<pre><code><?php

$args = array(
    'post_type' => 'download',
    'meta_key'  => 'edd_feature_download',
);

$featured_downloads = new WP_Query( $args );

if( $featured_downloads->have_posts() ) : ?>

    <ul>
        <?php while( $featured_downloads->have_posts() ) : $featured_downloads->the_post(); ?>
        <li>
           <a href="<?php the_permalink(); ?>" title="<?php the_title(); ?>">
                <?php the_title(); ?>
           </a>
        </li>
        <?php endwhile; ?>
    </ul>

<?php endif; wp_reset_postdata(); ?>
