Tell us what you are trying to do?
Show a list of all downloads of the same custom category as current custom post (Projekt). I'am using Simple Download Monitor that also creates a custom post type, so that i can track how many downloads were made.

The list shows the Post title with download button, regardless of what field I choose in the Loop Wizard. But I'd like to just have the Post title with a link.

Please know that when I add a relationship between the custom post type Projekt and the Simple Download Monitor custom post type Download, and then show all downloads of a Projekt, then the list is shown normally (under the heading Downloads). But this was just to see if the list can be shown with Post title with a link.

Please advise how I can create a view that lists the Downloads with just Post title with a link.

What is the link to your site?
You find the list that shows the Post title with download button here under the heading Downloadlist via custom category (on the right hand column):
hidden link
On the same url, you'll find the list that shows the Post title with a link und the heading "Downloads"

Hello and thank you for contacting Toolset support.

I am not sure to understand your request, please correct me if I am wrong. You want to have a link instead of a button on this section, right?
If that's the case, then, the buttons are actually just links(from an HTML perspective). They are links, styled as buttons by the plugin's CSS. To make them appear as links, you can do it with one of the following:
- Provide your own styling for the class "sdm_download".
- Remove the class "sdm_download" from the view, using Javascript code.
Does it make sense?

If you are not sure how to implement any of these suggestions. Please allow me temporary access to your website to be able to test it. Your next reply will be private to let you share credentials safely. ** Make a database backup before sharing credentials. **

Thank you for your feedback. I would prefer to focus on the initial request, then we can work on the relationship to the downloads custom post type, or the custom taxonomy that you want to use.

If I understood well, you want to build a link on the post's title that downloads the post, right? I mean, you want to click on the post's title and download from it, right?
Please correct me if I am wrong. In that case, please explain to me, in terms of steps, what you want to get:
- I want to go to...
- Expect to see... Please add a screenshot if possible.
- When I click on ...
- I would expect to have ...

Hi Jamal, I think i've solved it: I found another download manger plugin that works well with Toolset Type Loop Manager.

Thank you for looking into this
