Step-by-step download and redirect tutorials.

Start with one public item and a simple button. Add design, migration or access controls only when the website actually needs them. Each guide explains what to enter, what visitors will see and what should be tested before using the item on a live page.

How to import old download items and create a restorable backup

Titanium includes resumable import tools for Simple Download Monitor and Download Monitor. The source data is not deleted. Restricted or uncertain source items are held for review instead of being silently made public. JSON backup and restore covers Titanium-owned data.

Move existing items safely

Create a normal website backup before changing a live download system.
Open Titanium Downloads → Tools and choose the detected Simple Download Monitor or Download Monitor source.
Start the import and allow it to continue in batches. You can cancel or resume a supported run if needed.
Review every item placed in the restricted or uncertain review queue. Do not approve it until you understand the original protection.
Test imported items while the source plugin is still available, then deactivate the source plugin only when the handover is ready.
Export a Titanium JSON backup after the final review. Use Add mode to add missing data or Replace mode only when you intentionally want the backup to replace Titanium-owned data.

Important migration rules

The import does not delete source posts, metadata, tables or plugin files.
Draft, private, password, membership, CAPTCHA, terms or uncertain source items fail closed for administrator review.
Detailed visitor logs are not imported; supported aggregate counts and item metadata are preserved where available.
Legacy direct-link compatibility is disabled by default and should be enabled only during a controlled transition.
Legacy shortcode fallback can render a Titanium button after the source plugin is inactive.

Migration tip: Do not deactivate the old plugin immediately after the import finishes. First test representative public and restricted items, then switch over in a planned maintenance window.

Start with one item, one destination and one clearly labelled button.
