Why do you even think we want to sell anything?! I did not mention this in one word. In opposite, I made clear that the downloads are for free! -> “The downloads are for free, user just have to agree on terms before they can download files in the file cart.”
On our website (only available for registered/logged in users) user can download files FOR FREE. At the moment without any terms to agree before the download. This is the only thing we want to change now! User must have to agree on terms before they can download anything. That can be solved by your “Lock options”, described in this documentation.
We added the lock setting as described in our download files but the checkout settings is missing in the privacy tab! So the popup is not showing up when user download files. The only difference to the documentation is that we have the Add-on WPDM – File Cart.
I hope you get finally, what we need. The problem is very clear described inclusive screenshots.
please check the doc here, https://www.wpdownloadmanager.com/doc/short-codes/wpdm_category-query-all-downloads-from-one-or-more-categories/, you have to put the required parameter too in the shortcode parameter. please check and let me know
Thank you and regards
Hello,
For #1, You can check our different versions of shortcodes here,

For #2, You have to navigate each package’s attached files for that, please check Downloads > All Packages
, you can edit any package. please check and let me know
thank you and regards
Ok.
1) how do I actually get the page setup that lists them all? I’m sure it is with a shortcode, but different versions? You have a very smart way of doing it.
2) Removal of files: let’s say the client sees a PDF that was never meant to be in the Downloads list. How does she remove it from the Downloads list?

Hello,
By default the download packages are in search program for WordPress default search feature. And can you please elaborate on how do we go through them all, and remove from the list (ie. if they weren’t meant to be added to the downloads screen) issue? please check and let me know
Thank you and regards
Hello
I’ve gone thru all folders and Imported them all.
What happens next?
1) how do I display it searchable on a page?
2) how do we go through them all, and remove from the list (ie. if they weren’t meant to be added to the downloads screen).
Thanks for your prompt help.
However, before that, you can also check and put *

We are using this plugin for two reasons:
1) to uplaod Docs and assign them to users.
2) to create a new Downloads page for ALL people logged in or out, to access newsletter PDFs. So I need to be able to select “all PDFs” and then “all DOCs” to import into the library.
How do I do this please?
I disabled warnings in the wp-config file, this is a local text environment. There is no live link yet. sorry.
After I disable the warning, all seems ok.
Two questions:
How can I close the player? I know I can pause it, etc. But I don’t see a way to close it once its opened https://try.wpdownloadmanager.com/download/audio-songs-2/
You send me the file in that google link, that file is not available in wp downloads pro addons? How hard would it be to have a different player instead of the wavesurfer-player?
Hi, I am a Download Manager Pro user and how do we set up the downloads in WPDM so that they can only be seen and accessible to users who are specifically assigned to them?
We aim to restrict access to downloads in WPDMM so that only users who are assigned to specific downloads can access them. This restriction is crucial for maintaining control over sensitive content and ensuring compliance with our organization’s security policies.
Our concern is all of the downloads are seen by all users and they have access to the download page or link. Is there a way that should allow for granular control over download access, ensuring that only designated users can view and download specific files?
Please advise. Thank you.

Hi, I created a link template. How do I make it the default for all short code downloads?
Dear Download Manager Team,
We are currently experiencing an issue with the Download Manager’s statistics feature regarding Unique Downloads. It appears that the filter function is not operating as expected, resulting in an inability to obtain accurate counts for unique downloads when the filter is applied. We have identified two specific scenarios in which this issue arises:
Scenario 1:
Upon applying the unique download filter, the download count fails to update accordingly. For example, if the total downloads for the month of January 2024 are recorded as 845, applying the unique download filter still displays the count as 845, rather than reflecting the accurate unique download count.
Scenario 2:
Exporting to CSV: When attempting to export all download data to a CSV file, all records are exported successfully. However, when applying the unique downloads filter before exporting, only 40 records are exported, which does not represent the entirety of unique downloads.
We kindly request your attention to this matter as we are unable to gather the necessary data accurately through the Download Manager. Your prompt investigation and resolution would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you for your attention to this matter.
Good morning,
I have download problems with Firefox:
Documents do not open in a new tab like in Chrome or Edge, but are downloaded directly. In addition, FireFox marks “Failed” even though the file is downloaded. It also downloads a .PART file. In short, it’s not terrible at all! Can you help me ?
Hello Laura Miner,
We have also a feature for deleting all Stats from Downloads > Settings > Privacy > Cache & Stats > Delete All Stats Data
. But for subscribers deleting, you may keep a feature request here, https://www.wpdownloadmanager.com/support/forum/download-manager-pro-feature-request/, thus, our developer will implement it in the next updates. I hope you have understood. please check and let me know
Thank you and regards
If you don’t want to show that page, you can create a new link template
1. From Downloads > Templates
page, you will see CREATE LINK TEMPLATE

2. Just put this code in the HTML section, provide a appropriate Template Name, ID
<div class="link-template-default card mb-2">
<div class="card-body">
<div class="media">
<div class="mr-3 img-48">[icon]</div>
<div class="media-body">
<h3 class="package-title">[title]</h3>
<div class="text-muted text-small"><i class="fas fa-copy"></i> [file_count] [txt=file(s)] <i class="fas fa-hdd ml-3"></i> [file_size]</div>
</div>
<div class="ml-3">
[download_link]
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
3. Click on Save Template
.
4. After Creating new Link Template, go to your package settings and select the newly created Link Template
This will not show the Download Page, by clicking the Download button user can easily download the file.

OK, i understand the solution – the page will still exist but access is denied. I can achieve the same result by creating a blank page template and applying it to all the downloads, hopefully the combination of removing packages from search and the blank template will solve the problem.

Maybe an example will help.
I have a healthcare charity client who make patient information available to download in this area https://www.mesothelioma.uk.com/downloadable-resources/ with buttons linked to the PDFs.
Each of those packages has a post created for it, which I want to completely hide from the visitor or ideally not have created in the first place – e.g. https://www.mesothelioma.uk.com/downloads/best-supportive-care/ – i don’t want this post to be visible to any visitor.
Does that help?
Hello James LaVelle,
I can’t navigate the WP-Admin > Downloads > All Packages
section with your above credentials. Can you please check and let me know?
Thank you and regards
I am using WPDM Accordion in Download Manager Pro. My understanding is that the Accordion sorting option only sorts the packages listed within the Accordion’s categories but it doesn’t sort the category titles or subcategory titles themselves. I am aware that I can manually sort the parent category titles by changing their order in the shortcode as seen in this example:
[wpdm-accordion cats="first-category,test-category,next-category," cat_style="secondary" subcat_style="secondary" template="570ff5c2a5273.php" orderby="date" order="desc"]
For some reason, the Accordion subcategory titles are always listed in alphabetical order. Is there a way to automatically display the Accordion subcategory titles by descending or ascending published date? We offer video and audio downloads. The videos are all within subcategories so I have a need for subcategory titles to be sorted by published date so that users can quickly see the newest or oldest video and audio downloads just by looking at the subcategories. With the subcategories sorted alphabetically the way they are now, they have to open all of the subcategories first in order to determine which downloads are the newest. I have attached a graphic so that you better understand my request.
