1. I can not add a slideshare link in the download “URL attach file”. When I add a slideshare link the wp download manger post just ignores it and doesn’t accept it. Slideshare link I’m trying to insert into the URL attach file: http://www.slideshare.net/upenderus/osteoporosis-prevention-management
2. I can not add the slideshare wordpress shortcode into the description area. The wp download manager post ignores it. Slideshare shortcode I’m trying to insert in description area [slideshare id=32615157&doc=drvalya-140322141806-phpapp02]
Does anyone else have this issue?
How do I fix it?
How do you add links to slideshare videos or add slideshare videos to the download library?
Thanks.
– When sending the email, we don’t want to show the complete url as done with [download_url]. Is it possible to make “download_url” appearing as a hyperlink? For example an underlined “Click here” with the download_url hidden in that link of course.
— Yes, you can, simply edit email template from Admin Menu Downloads Subscribers Email Template Tab
– Is it possible to download immediately, without sending an e-mail? We would like this option for some of the downloads, but still include the e-mail lock.
— Yes, you can, while selecting email lock, there you also have another option to select “Download Instantly”
– Is it possible to add more required fields to the subscriber form? “company” / “function” ?
— It will require some customization in code.
Dear Shaon,
I have just started to use Download Manager Pro.
We are now testing it in a demo environment; http://www.ictcentrale.nl/demo/branded/register
We only want to use a couple of simple functions, without too much other hassle:
– Download documents
– When user clicks to download, pop-up for the e-mail lock
– Download link is send to users e-mail
It’s all possible and working, but we like to change the following:

Hi btjanes, thanks for your reply.
For the record, my files are stored on a different server to my website, and so I add files by URL and not by uploading files via the Download Manager. In my CSV filer, I have already put the full URL in the “Source URL” column.
Kind Regards
need to store additional images url in serialized for in var __wpdm_additional_previews
We are releasing next update of archive page add-on within next week which will be translation ready. Give me your URL to check.
Fixed file attached, please download it unzip upload wpdm-add-new-file-front.php
to /download-manager/tpls/ dir.
After that, please give me a temporary wp-admin login info and front-end url to check save option, which is a js conflict with your theme or other plugin
that will require good amount of customization in plugin too. In plugin need to add a new option to upload/select file/url to link with 2nd download button

if you are using same url for like, then in 2nd package, for same user, need to unlike and like again or you need to add additional lock option with facebook like so that user can have alternatives.
It is important to add Facebook APP ID ? or i can give only facebook URL ?

Hello did this ever come to a resolution other than the keys are wrong which they are not in my case so I assume they are not in downloader’s case either? I have the same issue where I can connect using my IAM keys from the backend to see all buckets and folders because my IAM user has Full Access but the download links will not work unless I make my files public which defeats the purpose of using S3 anyway (at least in my case). It appears the signing of the urls are not getting generating properly from the add-on?

I installed the add on and i put the downloadable files in the packages. I did this with box.
It worked fine, but if somebody wants to downlaod that packages (from box) they get this
The link you’re trying to access can’t be used to share files. Please ask the file owner to provide you with a shared link instead.
Any idea how to fix this? I didnt change a thing in box. I know that if i place a shared url, my users getting a preview which they can download. And thats not what i want. Because i have to go to box.com select the share and paste the url.
i found this on the forum:
File Size 0kb
same problem?
thanks for pointing that, I’ve adding alt tag for icons with next update update of the plugin. However if you want to do that right now, please open wpdm-functions.php
, replace line #4413 ( in wpdm v4.2.1 ) with $data['icon'] = "<img class='wpdm_icon' align='left' alt='{$data['title']}' src='" . plugins_url() . "/{$data[icon]}' />";
I was using free version. I moved my website host, and in my new host I purchased pro version. I deleted the free one and installed pro.
Then I tried to create a new package and attach a file, none of the options (upload-browse-Url) works in attach file section. Could you help me ?
That is not possible for now, as after user enters their email address wpdm pro generate a temporary download link for him and mail it. So he he just come to page url the download link will be lost, But it can be achieved through some customization.
Please give me the url where you trying and temporary wp-admin login info in a private reply to check the short-code. However you also may use this add-on http://www.wpdownloadmanager.com/download/advanced-tinymce-button/ to generate short-code.
The short-code used here http://demo.wpdownloadmanager.com/wpdmpro/all-categories/ is [wpdm-categories cols=3 subcat=1]
Please give your url where you trying and are you using latest version of archive page add-on?
please give me your URL to check, however you may also add a temporary wp-admin login info with a private reply, so that I can check everything in details and fix it.
Hello Shaon,
Since I bought WPDM 2 years ago, I have this problem but never talked about it because, if didn’t had the time to tell you or to search about it, I didn’t think of it.
This means the issue is there for a long time. And as I have at least 50 new package to add, I would be interested to find a fixture for it.
When I upload a file to a package by dropping or by selecting a file from my computer, wpdm upload the file and store it to the download-manager-files directory in “uploads” dir. The thing is the url/link generated shown in “Attached file” frame will be something like “1426002156my-file.zip” in place of something more like this : “/home/www/b31ce591a875c260a6b5327f3d514bb8/web/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/download-manager-files/my-file.zip”.
What I do until now is to upload the file like explain, then remove the attached file from the “Attached files” frame, then reattach file by browsing to the uploads/download-manager-files folder. (a pain in the a..)
What can I do to fix this issue?
Google shouldn’t ( usually doesn’t ) cache the download link because of rel="noindex nofollow"
However if block hot link is enabled then access to direct download from external source or site or direct url access through address bar will be blocked.
1) you will get all package data within $_REQUEST['package']
variable in your URL
2) the hook doens’t sent IP address, however we will extend it in future.
before download wpdm s3 add-on generate a temporary download url for amazon s3 and then simply use redirect. the url usually stay valid for 30 mins or so.
