Hello Asad Raza,
Hope you are well. For My Downloads section in user dashboard shortcode, you required this add-on,
Advanced Access Control
And can you please elaborate on flaturl parameter in the User Dashboard short-code issue? Please kindly check and let me know.
Thank you and regards

I do not see the “My Downloads” section in my user dashboard. How do I enable the “My Downloads” section for user dashboards?
Additionally, I would also like to know what the flaturl parameter in the User Dashboard short-code does and how I can use that parameter.
This is the demo.
https://try.wpdownloadmanager.com/frontend-uploader/?adb_page=add-new
This is the shortcode. [wpdm_frontend logo="logo-url" hide="settings,images,cats,tags"]
If there was a way to limit the category in the shortcode to only allow upload into that category without having a user select it.
Updates. Here’s the new URL for the test location, we moved our site’s address.
Test Download
I also renewed our subscription and put in the license code.
It now works on Safari (and Chrome) but not in Firefox.
Hello,
I am doing some work to add old versions of package files to ACF fields but i can’t appear to get the download url for a package file, how can i do this?
example of what i currently have
$files = get_package_data( $post_id, 'files' );
if ( $files ) {
// Define the new row to add.
$new_row = array(
'title' ► get_the_title(),
'date_added' ► gmdate( 'M d Y h:i:s A' ),
'files' ► array(),
);
foreach ( $files as $key ► $file ) {
if ( isset( get_package_data( $post_id, 'fileinfo' )[ $key ] ) ) {
$new_row['files'][] = array(
'file_name' ► $file,
'file_type' ► get_package_data( $post_id, 'fileinfo' )[ $key ]['type'],
'file_size' ► get_package_data( $post_id, 'fileinfo' )[ $key ]['size'],
'file_url' ► get_the_permalink( $post_id ) . '?wpdmdl=' . $post_id . '&ind=' . \WPDM_Crypt::Encrypt( $key ),
);
}
}
add_row( 'previous_versions', $new_row, $post_id );
}

Hey, I have been using the Download Manager plugin for a long time and have been managing a download site. But I noticed View count has not been updating. I thought it was bug and will resolve soon. but this bug is not been addressed. I am always using the latest version of WordPress, and Pulgin is on auto-update.
Here are my site URLs:
https://download.hermes.com.np/district-rate/
https://download.hermes.com.np/google-input-tools-nepali/
Download count is working fine.
For #1 I have created a page named downloads and add all downloads short code on that page
and I have a question about this
can I make a page where my all download will be listed without manually adding the short code in the same design as I am sharing URL with you
Downloads
For #2 Yes It looks same,
you can check this in below link
Downloads
What I want is when I click on download button and downloading stated this popup should be closed automatically, for now I need to close this manually
for #3
Can we show some progress bar over the page when it is downloading
like when I upload a file there is a progress bar that shows the downloading percentage
Hello SHIV SINGH,

Hello, Francesco
I hope you are doing well and thanks for writing to us.
– You can achieve the pdf preview feature by using this add-on: https://www.wpdownloadmanager.com/download/wordpress-pdf-viewer/
WordPress PDF viewer plugin helps your site visitors preview a PDF document before they download it.
-To preview the video, begin by uploading it to YouTube. Then, attach the YouTube video URL to the WPDM package. Finally, use the [youtube_player] tag in the page template to play the video
Regards
Hello! using WPDM version 3.1.05, shown the download packages categories vies on the pages through WPDM short codes, the issue is when page 2,3,4 or any next page is clicked, the generated URL’s are e.g domain.com/?cp_443=2 for other pages e.g domain.com/page-url/?cp_1867=2. These pagination is not index by google, in webmasters all pagination pages are in error.
If I update the plugin the template I am using “link-template-audio” changes in the updated version. In version 3.1.05 this template is using a separate card body and proper spaces /alignment between other files and when updated the template has no card body and space between other files.
Could you please guide me what to do to fix this pagination issue without changing the template design. Further, can we add “load more” button instead of using pagination.
Thank You
Hello, Elvis
Thanks for writing to us.
Could you please share a screenshot of the mail? Kindly try this one for direct link <a href="//your-site-url/?wpdmdl=[ADD_FILE_ID]">[your custom button image or text]</a>
Let me know if this aligns with your requirements.
Regards
Sorry for my late reply.
Basically, the Python script I created correctly uploads the files using your API. However, when I click on “Generate download URL”, this is the address that comes out:
https://mywebsite/?wpdmdl=7053&masterkey
As you can see, the masterkey is missing.
Then I have to go into the download, click update, and magically the masterkey is generated, and it correctly generates the link:
https://mywebsite/?wpdmdl=7053&masterkey=fL1HPluIpPl-ym9zVcmGZhkRswTEcdstsShcujn00WeWdSvIeSyFpxvkcCfwfsJxdQfSiEUI85oGTAK5NjG3C-CfKsxYdSylELJiG5BgF18
I need the masterkey to be generated immediately when I upload the file via the API.
The issue was with flat download URL, for now you need to keep flat download URL disabled as you are using number a title. However, with the next update we shall add the option to use custom base slug for flat download URL. please check and let me know.
Thank you and regards

Hello
I want to add a new menu in the “Author Dashboard”
Specifically, I want to add a menu that says “My published projects” and points to the author’s public page using the wordpress string: <a href="<?php echo get_author_posts_url(get_the_author_meta('ID')); ?>">
Screenshot: https://ibb.co/qBCNFTW
What code should I add?

I place links to package documents on my site using the Download Manager short codes. Each package contains only a single PDF. I want a link template that points directly to the PDF on the server, e.g. the link should be “…/myurl/wp-content/uploads/download-manager-files/mypackagedocument.pdf”. Instead, the link is the Download Manager short code, e.g. “…/myurl?wpdmdl=16123&ind=17150293486941”, and each time the link is accessed a new url is created with a unique ?refresh parameter added. Can I easily create a template (or does one exist) that would allow me to link directly to the PDF on the server?
