Hi there
What is the CSS to enlarge the font size for download titles etc in tabular format?
Much appreciated 🙂
With call to action 4 link template and category slugs with this shortcode, https://www.wpdownloadmanager.com/doc/short-codes/wpdm_category-query-all-downloads-from-one-or-more-categories/, the appearance you can get like this, https://wpdmpro.w3eden.com/category-shortcode/. Please kindly check and let me know.
Thank you and regards
So lets say I would like to use the link template “call to action 4” so that my downloads page listing looks like the “Call To Action 4” example on https://try.wpdownloadmanager.com/ready-to-use-templates/
and I would like to show downloads from category slugs “category-1” and “category-2” and show them in a grid totalling no more than 12 at a timer with pagination.
What would that shortcode look like?

Hi,
Is it possible to set a manual sorting in a table with a list of downloads? At the moment I have set the sorting based on the title, but I would like to manage the sorting manually. How can I do this?
Thank you
The fault was mine.
I had forgotten that we had installed the “Post Type Order” plugin. This then apparently also takes over the sorting of the downloads.
Now the sorting works as it should. Sorry.
Thank you so much for your support, I really appreciate it.
So if the short code you mention above is the only one available for listing downloads, even with a pro version how would I show your “Call to action 4” example on https://try.wpdownloadmanager.com/ready-to-use-templates/ ?
I need to know how I can show different download listings before I decide to upgrade to pro.

[wpdm_all_packages] shows a list of all downloads in tabular format in a page, you can’t define any template in this shortcode parameter. However, you can check other shortcodes here too, https://www.wpdownloadmanager.com/doc/short-codes/. Please kindly check and let me know.
Thank you and regards
The template type is fine – I understand.
However how do I define what template I am going to use to list all my downloads?
For example I am currently using the following on my listing screen but it doesnt mention the listing layout template anywhere:
[wpdm_all_packages login=0 thumb=1 items_per_page="20" jstable=1 order_by="field_name" order="ASC/DESC" cols="title,file_count,download_count|categories|update_date|download_link" colheads="Title|Categories|Update Date|Download::155px"]
My apologies as I think I am being extremely stupid.
On the main page that shows all of my available downloads I would like to show all downloads as per your template “Call to action 4” with 3 columns. So I have set the “Link template” for each download to “Call to action 4” However how do I setup the main view of these downloads to be as per your “Call to action 4” example on https://try.wpdownloadmanager.com/ready-to-use-templates/ ?
My page currently look like this: https://showersave.previewlab.co.uk/library/
Also how do I add a search facility?
Thank you.

Hello Edukid,
Hope you are well. Thanks for writing to us.
For updating the WPDM PRO plugin, Please simply click the Save Settings again for the license key option from Downloads > Settings > License, and then please update the plugin from the wp-admin > plugins panel.
For saving settings again for the license key option from Downloads -> Settings -> License, that will regenerate the access token. Thus the plugin will be updated,
For updating WPDM add-ons, please download your plugin from here, https://www.wpdownloadmanager.com/user-dashboard/?udb_page=purchases,
And update manually from the wp-admin dashboard Plugins > Add New option. I hope, thus it will resolve your issue. For the Download > Settings > Updates option will not work properly for some server settings. please check and let me know, if you have any queries.
Thank you and regards
Automatic updates of wpdownloadmanager are not working.
In help I found this page that shows how to allow the plugin to login to my wpdownloadmanager account:
Updating download manager to the latest version
However when I go to Admin Menu Downloads Settings Updates on our website I see a empty list of “Purchased add-ons” below “Check for updates” and “Logout” buttons. I have recently changed the wpdownloadmanager account password so I click “LOGOUT” but the page just reloads the same as it was; there’s no login page to enter the new password.
I performed a manual update by downloading the zip of 6.5.4 and updating via the “Upload plugin” interface, but this didn’t fix the problem.

We recently redesigned our website and are trying to export the downloads from the old site to the new one using Download > Import & Export > Create Export File.
The Export to a CSV file works but when I try to Import it from into the new website it gets stuck on 1%
I’ve setup a test install I can give you access to troubleshoot.
I’ve turned off Mod Security on the hosting account to rule that out.
I also disabled all plugins other than WP Download Manager.
Both sites use the newest version of WordPress and Download Manager Pro 6.5.4
I see this problem happens a lot for people on this forum but there was no solution other than to get support through a private message.
Please contact me so I can give you the WordPress login details.

Sure, but the search reveals ALL docs to ALL users – this is bad.
We are using this plugin because it allows us to assign downloads to users.
Search will bypass that… which is very very bad.
Ok. So right now, there is absolutely no way for a client to login, and search for THEIR downloads, based on the Description, within the WP DL Manager plugin.
Only via the title of the package.
Just so we are clear. As I was originally told otherwise.
Simon
Sure, but the Search shortcode you provided – if we use that, and give it to anyone, they can access ALL USERS downloads.
This reply has been marked as private.
Can you please add it to our Downloads page, so I can see what you mean, as you do have access.
As I am confused.
I know about the Allow Access option. But what do I put in there, so it allows access to all who are logged in?
Simon
Hi sorry can you please elaborate.
If you edit the page for downloads, you can see what code we have in there.
Are you saying that Shortcode can be tweaked so it CAN search in the Description – which is what I was told it could do in your livechat?
And secondly, Within the Allow Access – are you saying there is no way right now with our paid account, to enable it so all who are logged in, can view certain Docs. IE. if the team wanted to make one Doc available to all clients – no way to do that?
I was told on the Livechat on here, that because we cannot search for File Names, we can simply put those file names in the Description, so users can search for it.
You are now saying, this is NOT possible. So if a client contacts them to say “I need that document called xxx, where do I find it”, they have no way to search for the file name, or any keyword. And if a Package has more than one file, it is totally impossible search for that filename.
That being said, if they are logged in, does the Default Search (top right of any page) let that search result find it? But NOT in the main Downloads screen?
It’s just so all over the place. And one doesn’t find out these things til we are using it.
No way to search for Filename.
And if that filename is listed in the Description, the Search in the Downloads screen, does not allow you to find the keyword added to the description.
Oh boy.
Also, with regard to being able to enable a set file to be available in downloads to any logged in user – sorry we need to pay to be able to do that? Really?
For now, User Dashboard > My Downloads section search option shall not work with keyword of package description, however, you can also keep a feature request here, https://www.wpdownloadmanager.com/support/forum/download-manager-pro-feature-request/. And for bulk apply to Allow Access option for package settings to your all packages you can check this add-on, https://www.wpdownloadmanager.com/download/wpdm-default-values/. please kindly check and let me know, if you have more queries.
Thank you and regards
Does this page come from the Downloads > Categories section ? https://www.kennel-schmenger.net/downloads/studio-fall-winter-2024-25/ Or any shortcode. Please kindly check and let me know.
Thank you and regards
Disregard our site’s main search please. That should not be showing any results from the Download Manager at all (tho it doesn’t matter, so long as it doesn’t show results NOW assigned to that user. That’s a security risk.
This is the search in the WP Download Manager Downloads area.
