On all downloads page, I just use packages block using wpdm Gutenberg plugin ( https://www.wpdownloadmanager.com/download/gutenberg-blocks/ ), if you go to edit page, you will see that. And created the following link template to use with the grid view on all downloads page:

And for package details page, I’ve edited your page template, replaced [file_list] with [file_list_extended]:

As they are PDF, activate ImageMagick on your server, you will see the preview of the first page of the PDF files.
So, automatic switching available, but you can achieve that using some javascript and HTML, add 2 buttons and use both [file_list] ( list view ) and [file_list_extended] ( grid view ), and show/hide them with button click as list and grid view switching. You need to do that editing the page template.

@abrafac, as it is now, it will show only file type icon, however, we shall add custom icon support with the next update, but, now you can show featured image by adding parameter thumb=1 with the shortcode. But, if you need an immediate fix, please get the attached file and put it in /plugins/download-manager/tpls/ dir replacing the old one:

WordPress Newsletters and AutoResponder Plugin will help you to notify all subscribers about new posts, downloads, and updates. So, when you are creating a new package it will notify you. if you are facing the problem, Please, give your temporary wp-admin login details in a private reply for checking.
Thanks.
Hi,
Its the same issue as your demo page:
https://demo.wpdownloadmanager.com/wpdmpro/wpdm-package/social-locks/
After you push the download button you hardly can read the next page, even worse on a mobile phone. But after you push the like button I don’t see any download page or file downloaded.
And what happens when somebody allready likes my page or downloads a second file?
Thanks!
Guido

Hi,
1. Generally, when you upload multiple files, it creates a zip download file. However, you can upload it from Attach dir with a zip file not uploading multiple files. you can use other options too.
2. You can disable the download button by giving the access role, and you can also check the option Downloads > Settings > Basic > When the user is not allowed to download. Thus you can hide the button
Thanks.
Hi
I have the memberships plugin installed and want to limit users to how many downloads they receive each given month.
I have the download limit plugin installed and number of downloads set, but users can still download as many docs as they want.
I can see users set as ‘Subscribers’ in the membership plugin but they are not set as subscribers in the Downloads plugin and I’m guessing this is why they are not being limited to downloads.
Help gratefully received
Ian

Sorry no, it isn’t working. The feed that I had is https://www.gunnedahbaptist.org.au/sermons/feed/ but that is not my downloads feed
So I have a Downloads category called sermons, the slug is sermon-downloads … what is the rss feed for that?
Thanks,
This is a problem worth promoting to the top of your queue. I just cleared more than 30,000 cache files from a small, low-traffic website. The out-of-control wpdm-cache put us over our host’s file limit, which then limited our site’s operations. The wpdm-cache folder is accumulating more than a megabyte’s worth of cache files per day — and most days we have zero downloads.
This should not be considered a feature request; it is a flaw.
Hello,
Im building an intranet where users can create/edit posts and custom post types. Using WPDM Pro with Pro Membership.
All memberships are free und without a registration, users get created from a user library.
I create wordpress users via Microsoft Active Directory/LDAP and they are “Subscribers”.
At the moment every new WordPress User gets the role “Subscriber” but no Pro Membership. New users should get both to make certain downloads only visible for some users.
Is there anyway to auto sync new word press users with a Pro Membership?
Hi,
Please follow these steps for upgrading the plugin,
1 ) Deactivate and delete the old version. You won’t lose any data.
2 ) Download latest version from here https://www.wpdownloadmanager.com/user-dashboard/?udb_page=purchases
3 ) Install the latest version and activate the license key.
To enable the auto-update, login to your WPDM account from the Downloads > Settings > License tab. If login is successful and you have an active subscription then you can update the future releases right from your plugins page.
Then you should use download limit setting the value 999999 as the Limit Reset Period. It should work for an unlimited download option.
Please let me know if those works for you
Thanks.
We purchased this plugin to be integrated to ourt website:
zookdisk.com
When I am trying it to assign to a package it downloads an error txt file. I have created a user account for you to investigate the lock system:
https://zookdisk.com/resource-category/downloadable-step-files/
We are using wpforms for formlock that is also installed and the name of the form is : FORM LOCK
We have created a user account for you and sent you via email:
support@wpdownloadmanager.com
I noticed today that my “Allow Access” default values had all reverted to blank, instead of the 3 defaults I had set in the default settings tab. I checked the settings, they were blank as well. Setting them and clicking “update all” had no effect. I have like 2800 files. Quickly tested one by setting them in the file and they took.
I had noticed an update that I had not updated to for quite some time (I was still running 4.89 I believe). SO I updated the core and then all the add ons. It seems to have fixed the “default values” issue. However, now none of my previews pdfs will load (see image) and all of my downloads show a white screen with a button “Download Limit Exceeded”. I’ve checked the system settings for download limit, the default settings for download limit and even checked a few packages for the download limit. I don’t understand what it happening.
I had no download limits set anywhere. I tried resetting the limit for all users. I tried setting a system download limit, a default download limit and a package download limit all with no luck.
I would revert back, but download permissions were broken, that’s why I updated.

Please help. This is on a live site.

Did exactly what you said, except the activation. We have a 1 site licence and this is our development server. If we copy everything over to our live production we can activate this single licence there.
But still no change. The favorite button doesn’t work.
With WPEngine we tested with all plugins off, basic themes, nothing made the favorite button work.
So kind of stuck here. It is the main feature of the plugin.
What we can see is that if we go to the my downloads page, some of the images we set to favorite are there. But not all of them.. So it is saving the favorites in a way. but doesn’t update the number favorites, after favoriting the package. And not all the favorites are being saved.
