After installation and setting up the file manager, it only shows a blank manager: toolbar is greyed out and the content panel doesn’t show any files.

Hi. We are experiencing the same issue af knobblessteed – Works from the wp admin menu, but not when not logged in. Did you figure out a solution? I get this error: jq(...).elfinder is not a function
Hi,
If you download the new version of the filemanager, it should work fine. You can email me and I can send you the new version too.
I’ve just installed the newer version and can’t having front-end display.. Tried all shortcodes without success.
Also tried with Safari, Firefox, Edge and Chrome.. no success.
I can see the interface from WP admin menu.. but not in front-end.
please help,
Eric
Hi,
Email me, ill check it out.
Hello kind sir, why is my toolbar greyed out. I cannot upload or download anything. I’ve already given read/upload permission too.
Hi,
You can email me the link, Ill check it out.
Hello, email notifications are not working when I upload a file to a users folder. We are not receiving notifications. Please advise. Thanks!
nvm i had the setting disabled, please disregard. thanks!
I have the setting “User Upload Email Notification:” set to Enable
However, when I add a new user, the default setting is Disabled on that user.
Is this a bug?
Every new user should get notified if you have already enabled the email notifications. You can overrule this in each users settings page in the filemanager > users page.
Definitely a bug. I see that your plugin is not adding this meta_key in mysql when adding a new user: meta_key = fm_overrule_admin_email_notification, meta_value = 1
Had to use the user_register hook to add it myself
When I create a new user in wordpress, the setting says “Disable” under “Disable Default Folder Upload Notifications” while viewing the user folder settings…
BUT my default setting in “User Upload Email Notification:” is Enable at /wp-admin/admin.php?page=red_fm_settings
Can you email me, Ill send you the latest version of the filemanager, this might be an older version.
hello, Since I haven’t gotten a response to support request in over 2 days and the File Manager plug in doesn’t work, I’d like a refund. I had to produce an alternate solution.

Hi,
I replied to your previous response the same day, you can go to your previous comment and confirm.
LIcense: 123655a7-f214-4378-89ab-0e76e3ded6e3 Hi, Having multiple problems with File Manager plugin with site: http://festival.alexisdesigns.us
1. When I try to upload a folder from wp-admin, I get “Do you want upload these xx items?” I answer yes, and nothing happens. 2. The front end shows nothing to users except the shortcode itself.. (No file manager window, nor any files) I’ve inserted in various ways, including the “shortcodes” block.
3. How do you delete files from the WP-ADMIN interface??
thanks. john sacco
Hi,
You can email me the backend access, I’ll check it out. One of your plugin, probably cache or optimization plugin might be compressing the js files the wrong way. Or could be a different plugin conflict
Why is the changelog at Version 7.5, but when i download the plugin here, i only get Version 7.4.2
Something is not correct. Also the image and file editor online is not working in 7.4.2, maybe in 7.5 but this Version is impossible for me to get.
Hi,
Can you email, ill send you the new version. I think there is something up with envato version control.
Hello, I have a pre sales question. It works with php 8? This is mandatory for me.
Thanks in adv, Enrico
Hi,
I havent tested it with php 8, there are some backward incompatibilities in php 8 which might affect the plugin.
Recently File manager has stopped working on my page (https://skfr.org/publications/). It works in the back end, but does not display on the page. It works when using internet explorer, but does not display in Edge or Chrome. We are currently on Version 7.5.2, Wordpress 5.8, and Divi.
After reading the above comments I also disabled “Defer JQuery” in the theme and it fixed the problem.
i am using fm 7.5.4 and wp 5.8 with latest divi theme, all was working fine but now all of a sudden the file manager system doesn’t show on the page, just white space, i inspect and the shortcode is there, any idea why?
as a follow-up, it appears to be a theme issue as when i activate the default theme it shows back up on the page. any idea why the latest divi theme version is blocking the file manager?
Hi,
You can email me the backend access, it must be some javascript conflict with the theme, ill fix it.
What email to use for credentials?
You can click on my profile link here and find the email section in the right sidebar.
ok, i think i found the gmail address and sent it there.
Got it, replied.
Me too.
The Divi theme support team had me disable “Defer JQuery” in the theme and it is now working again and fixed… thanks for looking.
Great
Hi, I’m getting a wrong link on Admin Email Notification
/home/quadsourcingph.com/public_html/wp-content/uploads/FileManagerFiles/keithian\4.jpg
on the last slash, it’s showing a back slash ”\” instead of forward slash ”/” also the directory is wrong, there shouldn’t be a public_html on the URL
Another issue is User Email Notification email doesn’t send when the admin uploads a file to the user’s default folder
Lastly, can the text label on the file manager window be displayed permanently effective for all users, and remove buttons permanently too for all users?
I figured these out: “Lastly, can the text label on the file manager window be displayed permanently effective for all users, and remove buttons permanently too for all users?”
I just need to have the link working and the email working
You can find the toolbar buttons and right-click menu buttons list in the filemanager settings page, you can remove any buttons from them:

Make sure to not make mistakes with double quotes and commas.
I already figured that out, what about the other problems?
I dont understand what you mean by “can the text label on the file manager window be displayed permanently effective for all users”.
Can you show me in a screenshot?
What?? that’s no longer the issue, I told you I already figured it out and fixed that, what I need fixed is now is:
Issue #1: Hi, I’m getting a wrong link on Admin Email Notification
/home/quadsourcingph.com/public_html/wp-content/uploads/FileManagerFiles/keithian\4.jpg
on the last slash, it’s showing a back slash ”\” instead of forward slash ”/” also the directory is wrong, there shouldn’t be a public_html on the URL here’s a screenshot: https://quadsourcingph.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/08/Screenshot-2021-08-21-02.48.52.png
Issue #2: Another issue is User Email Notification email doesn’t send when the admin uploads a file to the user’s default folder
Its not a file link, its the file path. This shortcode will show you the file path where the file has been uploaded.
For the second issue, make sure you enable the admin notification in the filemanager settings page, if its there, email me the backend access, ill check it out.
Good day File Manager does not play mp4 videos. Don’t know where the problem may be? When will the ZOHO office editor be available?
I have put up the zoho office addon link again:
https://www.bloopes.com/products/filemanager/addons-2/
Can you show me the link where your mp4 files are not working?
Where can I send you a private message?
I’ve already sent you a private message. I will ask you to solve the problem quickly. well thank you
Got it.
Well thank you. SUPER SUPPORT !!! I RECOMMEND SELLER!!!
Hi, do you have an extension to add tags in the archives, like categories in the wordpress blog, is a god idea.
Hi,
Unfortunately, you cant tag the files or folders.
it’s a good idea to develop, it would be nice if you could do it as an extension. by the way, very good plugin, thank you very much.
Will try if there is more demand for it.
Hi team, I hope everything is fine.
I’m contacting you as we have some doubts about the File Manager Plugin. We have seen that for our Site with more than 5000 users, there are more than 5000 personal folders created under the “upload” folder. That’s all fine.
However we are not using this File Manager feature for none of those 5000 users and just for a few editors. The complex situation happens with the slow response time of the file Manager while is loading in the Frontend as I supose it goes through all the users before rendering in the front side, right?
So, our question is, can we remove manually all 5000 users folders “named” with usernames, as we don’t need them? Will those folders be created automatically again? What process is the one that creates all those individual folders in order to avoid it again?
Thank you very much.
Hi,
You can go to the filemanager settings page and disable “Allow Default Folders For Registered Users” and then delete the user’s folders. Then you wont have to worry about getting them back again.
Per previous discussion, I am having trouble with settings for getting the files to not be able to download for users. I have it set for preview only but when you preview, you have options to save or download, can I turn those options off?
Hi,
Users can always view and download the files, in read only permissions, the users will read/view and download the file. View and download means the same thing in the browser, if a user can view an image, they can also download it.
Ok, thanks, I misunderstood and thought you stated there was a way to prohibit downloads of files for users.
as a follow-up, in preview mode, is there a way to remove the print or save icons so those options are not at lest selectable there? see this screenshot: https://1drv.ms/u/s!AhEGwAK9kdjyhJNkw0rhrpmywRJjkw?e=q8vSsf
This is the pdf viewer built in the browsers, you cant change these control for other users, it will even look different in different browsers, like in firefox, it looks like this:
https://i.imgur.com/YHAInNr.png
Is there a way to see if someone (and who) downloads or prints from the browser viewer? I might be out of luck here… thanks.
No, pdf viewer is like a browser addon which is built into it, we cant collect any information from it.
Hi, bought this today, it’s a great plugin. I am having an issue with the editor. The edit file button is grayed out (inactive) on all files. If any of my users double click on one of the files, it takes them back to the main top-level directory that they have access to.
In the demo, it worked fine, however, not on my installation. How can I make sure this button is enabled as employees will need to edit and copy these files on a regular basis.
Also, is there a way to add check-in/check-out to files, so I can make sure 2 people aren’t trying to edit a file simultaneously?
Hi,
When you assign that folder to a user, make sure it is read/write access, otherwise users cant edit files with read only access.
Also only images and text files can be edited, other document formats cant be edited with the filemanager plugin.
I have a client who wants to setup a website for his potential clients where they could get access to specific files he wants to share with them. He would like it to have the following functions: 1) Give each a user ID and password and be able to track when they login and from where, etc. (and know if they are sharing the access). 2) Easily add and delete users as needed. 3) Allow controlled access to the files, meaning some files be read-only and have restricted ability to download the files and only view. 4) Be able to group documents by directory so they can give users selected access to different file groups. Does this premium plugin have those features?
Hi,
Yes, it has all these features except for tracking when the user logs in and from where. You will need a different plugin for that, like wpcerber or wordfence.
thanks… can you help with best way to setup / configure a simple single subdirectory for uploaded files that subscribers could login and view only (no edit, no download) those files or let me know where i could find documentation or tutorials… thanks.
Here are the user guides:
http://www.bloopes.com/products/filemanager/guides/
You can simply go to front-end access page and generate shortcode for a folder with any permission you like and paste it in a page somewhere to let user access that folder.
double, sorry.
