User Review Add-on

User Review Add-on for WordPress Download Manager Pro will enable your site visitor to rate and review download packages. User-submitted reviews will be saved with pending status. Admin gets an email notification when someone posts a new review. Site admin can moderate any review and publish it.

List of Template Tags to use with Link/Page Template:

• [wpdm_reviews] - will generate the complete review UI
• [avg_rating] - will show the average rating for a package
• [rating_stars] - will show the rating option for a package with ★ symbols

Review Requirements:

By default to submit a review a user must meet the following requirements,

1.  Must be logged in
2.  Have access to the package
3.  Have already downloaded the package
4.  If the package is premium, have already purchased the package

But if you want you can change these restrictions using the following filters.

add_filter('wpdm_review_login_required', function (){ return false; } );
add_filter('wpdm_review_package_access_required', function (){ return false; } );
add_filter('wpdm_review_purchase_required', function (){ return false; } );
add_filter('wpdm_review_download_required', function (){ return false; } );
