Hi,
Sorry for the delayed reply.
Here are the steps to upgrade to Pro,
1 ) Deactivate and delete the free version. You won’t lose any data/downloads
2 ) Download Pro version here https://www.wpdownloadmanager.com/user-dashboard/?udb_page=purchases
3 ) Install and activate Pro
Thanks.

Hi There,
Love the plugin but am having trouble getting the search page to look correct.
I would like the search page layout to look like this if possible
http://www.harrowcwu.org/downloads
I have tried loads of different shortcodes but it will not give me that layout all I seem to get is this.
Any help is mch appreciated.
Hi Shahriar,
for now we can’t check anything else.
The test-installation you had access to is now not available anymore (as it got cloned again).
What we did now: we added the files again manually for all 288 downloads on the new plattform on the new server.
Then we cloned from there to the plattform you had for testing.
Interresting part: we didn’t encout any problems there.So for now it’s okay and so far “resolved”. No more action is needed.
We’re still not sure, where the problem was. We used the guide provided by wpdm for cloning and did exactly these steps with exactly the software that was outlined (as we use this software for cloning anyway). we also tested it several times.
As soon as we tried the import on the new server: downloads gone.
When we tried on another computer in a local installation: everything correct.
No idea, how these data could have gone away.One last idea we had and we fixed that by hand: there are serveral files that may have a too long file name and used special characters like ” ‘ ” or “umlaute” (in German) like äöü. As far as I was aware, WPDM recognize them and change the filename to an appropriate file name.
With 2 people and 8 hours of work we were able to get all the files back up and runnung and the last clone was now also in order.
Thanks anyway.
ChristophIn reply to: list all packages using a custom template
Hi,
You can use all packages
[wpdm-all-packages jstable=0 items_per_page=10]shortcode to show all packages in a tabular format. This shortcode doesn’t support custom template.Another option is the category shortcode ( https://www.wpdownloadmanager.com/doc/short-codes/wpdm_category-query-all-downloads-from-one-or-more-categories/ ). This one has custom template support.
But the best option is using Directory Add-on ( https://www.wpdownloadmanager.com/download/wpdm-directory-add-on/ ) which has search and filtering options.
Directory Add-on Demo: https://demo.wpdownloadmanager.com/wpdmpro/archive-page-default/
Thanks.
I have tried to get an answer to this query for days now without success.
I use the Pro version of WPDM, I have created a large number of packages on my site, each containing a number of files. The individual files download ok but when users attempt to download the compressed Zip package, the downloaded file is empty. I cannot find any answers to how to correct this problem and it’s important for our customers to be able to do this. So can you please let me know what the solution is to this big problem.
I really do need to know the answer to this. If the Zip link isn’t supposed to work, then why is it there.
In reply to: :::Error by Login and Register sites:::
Hi,
Please send temporary wp-admin login info in private reply ( check the private reply button in the form below ). I will fix the warning issue in login and sign up form.
You can add a
logoparameter in the login and sign up shortcode to fix the issue.[wpdm_login_form simple=1 logo="https://demo.wpdownloadmanager.com/wpdmpro/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/01/wpdm-icon-620.png"]There are many ways to display your downloads. The simple one is all downloads table which shows all available downloads in a tabular format.
[wpdm_all_packages]– Documentation Link.Install the TinyMCE Button add-on ( https://www.wpdownloadmanager.com/download/advanced-tinymce-button/ ) to insert shortcodes easily.
Thanks.
Hi guys,
I have the same problem als outlined in this older thread by another user here: https://www.wpdownloadmanager.com/support/topic/all-downloads-giving-download-not-available-txt/
And it’s also as Shariar told the user there: there are no files linked to that package.BUT – and here comes the point – all dwonloads were linked to the respective files.
What we did is, we cloned the whole WP installation and put it to a new server (new IP, new Domain). Everything seemed fine, but not the downloads. All files where transported, but somehow WPDM just deleted(?!) all links between the package and the respective files.What can we do? We need that clone as it will be a productive part of a banking website for a customer.
So we’d need quite urgend support on this one.Thanks a lot in advance!
ChristophHi,
I have install the latest WPDM version 4.7.7 and it all works beautifully except for a big problem. My Zip downloads are all empty. If I download the packaged files individually, they are ok. So I know they are there and not empty. But when I download them the whole package as a Zip file, ther’s nothing tn there. Please let me know how to get around this. I really need this core facility.
Thanks
Hi – I am looking for a plugin where I can do the following…
Allow a manager or business owner buy a certain amount of downloads for their team and then easily distribute them. As soon as they download the last one they can no longer access the file. Is this something the paid version of your plugin can do?And if it can do this how would that work? Does each team member get a link to download the file and if so how? Do they each get a different password? Thanks.

Good day,
I was hoping to have date and version information as well. I am surprised more people have not asked for it, as with it, it becomes a tool to be able to track compliance and updates of documents. I wish the stats were both directions or at least had the ability to be reversed for additions and revisions. The ultimate goal would be to have a stats or analytics on additions, revisions, removals, downloads, etc.
Part of the reason for picking this plugin was its extensibility, but what I did not realize when picking it was that it could not track the things I really needed. Is there any way to get this functionality, or am I out of luck?

Hiya,
On all of our download pages we have a email lock, e.g. https://www.excellgroup.com/downloads/excell-master-terms-conditions-v9-0-may-18-n6rn9j/.
This section is entitled “Subscribe to download” – how do I change the text to read something different? I’d like it to read “Enter your details to download”.
Thanks
Seb
In reply to: WPDM Archive Page tags display error
Hello again
Regarding audio problem, it seems that all audio downloads have lost link to audio files…
If I click on Download, I get a text file “file not found”.
Why are the links broken (they were generated by bulk import).
RegardsDear WPDM Team,
i am currently setting up a new page with WPDM Pro – i uploaded several packages and created a page using the wpdm-tree shortcode, to display all categories.
For some reason, this page is publicly accessible and even non-registered users can download the files. Am i using the wrong shortcode, or how can i display the downloads only to registered users? Also, after having logged in (when going to the login-page directly), the users are redirected to the dashboard – how can i add a link so they can get to the front-page? Currently they can only log-out or see their dashboard.
Thanks in advance!

Hi there
I have bought alot of different add-ons for wp download manager pro, and we are super excited about the project – which is almost done and ready to go live.
We are just hitting two small bumps:
1: when we have add’ed some files to the cart and then try to download it, it just downloads a text called something-wrong.txt with the text “file not found” inside out if.. and again if we try to send by email nothing happens
2: is it possible to remove the filename from [file_list] shortcode – i dont need the file names to be displayed. (an alternative could be to get the + button with out the rest of the shortcode)
Thank you in advanced – we are super pleased with your solution and will gladly recommend it to others!
How can I uninstall download manager without losing any of my files or data in the database?
The auto update feature doesn’t work correctly–the plugin disappears completely with the error “The plugin download-manager/download-manager.php has been deactivated due to an error: Plugin file does not exist.” This error has been true for quite a while. I’m currently running 4.7.2 and want to update to 4.7.7.
So I just want to do the update manually, but want to make sure I don’t lose any of the files or metadata for the existing downloads. If I deactivate the plugin and go to delete it, wordpress warns that the “plugin and files” will be removed, which is not desired.
How can I fix this problem?
In reply to: WordPress refuses to install v4.7.7.
Hi,
Sorry for the delayed reply.
Please deactivate and delete the previous installation of Download Manager. You won’t lose any data. Your downloads will still be there. After removing the old version install the latest one.
If you want me to install the latest version for you, please send temporary wp-admin login info in private reply.
Thanks.

Topic: "File Not Found"
I’m finding that some of my downloads are not accessible. When I click the link to download on a page, I instead download the text file that says “File Not Found.”
I have a multisite installation and this is on one of the sub-sites. I’ve deactivated and reactivated the plugin on the sub-site level as I’ve seen instructed in other threads.
Can you please help me correct this? I am using WPDM Pro.
In reply to: Get Downlad link from package
Hi,
You can use the master download link from all downloads page. Each package has a button to generate the master download link.
https://www.evernote.com/l/AUdbmPlfkqBNe5QPADxc1TS8BAJi4rSrKWIB/image.png
By the way, You can create your grid using a custom link template. In that case, everything will be handled by WPDM automatically. You don’t have to copy and link the URLs. Custom templates are used to build a custom preview of the package/download.
Thanks.
Topic: Description is blank
I am using the following shortcode to try and display the description on the front end. However the description field is blank. I have followed the documentation here: https://www.wpdownloadmanager.com/doc/short-codes/wpdm_all_packages-list-all-downloads-in-tabular-format-in-a-page/
[wpdm_all_packages order_by="update_date" order="DESC" colheads="Title|Description|Size|" cols="title|post_content|package_size|download_link"]
Why would this be blank?
