Removed the login/register tab from login page. Also redirected user to homepage after login. You can change the redirect url from your theme’s functions.php file by editing my code.
You need WPDM Directory addon to create a all downloads page with panel 1/3 template.
Hi and thank you for your answer. I was writing about a download issue, and your answer is about uploading.
But it seems that ‘turning off’ the Output Buffering and Resumable Downloads selections in the settings is the solution. I also doubled the download speed to 8192, and wow! the download really goes fast. 6 gig in 10 minutes for one person.
Can you say for certain:
For downloading, is there a limit with the Free version of the Download Manager?
I am getting close to making the package work well – I thank you all – and will be giving those 5 stars soon.
Hi,
I think you missed part of my answer. Actually, You can add as many files as you want in a single package. And limit should work as you want ( e.g. 5 from 1000 )
The only thing we have to change is counting each file download as separate download. By default Download Manager counts multiple downloads of same package as single download. But it can be changed by minor code update.
Please send temporary wp-admin login info in private reply. I will create a sample package for you.
Thanks.

Hi Shahriar,
Thank you for your answer.
So I guess Download manager and Download Limit are not the solution I was looking for.
It seems to be a good plugin when you don’t have many files to display.
In my case, If I want to display 1000 files on one page, and allow certain users to download 5 from those 1000.
It means that I would have to create 1000 file under Downloads / 1000 packages.
Would you recommend any plugins in that case please?
Thank you

Unfortunately the link in the email is not the problem, I don’t use that feature, I just want user to enter email and instant download which is what I have setup. But I have tried again this morning by enabling one of the documents to locked by email (instant download do not send link) and again on all computers I have tried I just get link expired.txt file. So it is still not working with all the cache exceptions in place. If you login and test page it does work ok for logged in users, but if a visitor comes to site and clicks on download link they enter email address and then it downloads link expired txt file and not the document.
To be clear, these are free downloads that only require a passcode, hosted at digitalocean which doesn’t place any restrictions on files sizes like this at all. The site is cinematesttools.com, which works well otherwise. (Some files require registration, but the test files I have been asking associates to download are at: http://www.cinematesttools.com/index.php/download/xkcd1080/
I have just toggled the Output Buffering and Resumable Downloads to “Off” since they didn’t seem to be offering resumable downloads…
Appreciating any thoughts and assistance.

My goal is to be able to use a shortcode to display Downloads with a certain tag on a page or post.
I was originally using Display Posts Shortcode (https://wordpress.org/plugins/display-posts-shortcode/) but it doesn’t recognize the tags assigned to Downloads items.
I was hoping that the “WPDM – Archive Page” Add-on would allow me to do what I want, but it doesn’t look like it.
Any idea how I can call Downloads to a page/post using Tags?
Hi,
Sorry for the delay.
Please use the default WordPress post export module from Dashboard Tools Export page to export all downloads. Then import the file in new installation. After that relocate your whole /uploads/download-manager-files
directory to your new installation.
Thanks.
The topic title should called: Hide downloads and categories when a user is not allowed to access a Category
There is a setting for the frontend called “When user is not allowed to download: Hide everything”. This doesn’t work for [wpdm-archive cat_view=”sidebar”] , [wpdm-categories] and [wpdm_tree]
I already managed all categories and files with specific rights for every user.
I just don´t want that a normal user with no access for a category or a download can see everything. At this time there is only a restriction, if the normal user gets the message “Login is required to access this page” when i use the shortcode [wpdm-archive cat_view=”sidebar”]
With the shortcode [wpdm-categories] it shows all categries, including all hidden categories wich the normal user shouldn´t see. By normal user i mean an non-logged (unlogged) user with no rights. The access for hidden files work.
The short code [wpdm_tree] has the same problem like [wpdm-categories].
Is there a simple solution to navigate thrugh all the categories with maybe three or four sub-categories and only see the files and categories for the respective user?
Thank you for your support!
On update. The plugin works fine when creating a new file for download. I deleted the plugin and reinstalled, and still the 100+ existing downloads do not recognize the files in the download directory.
Yes, it is possible. It requires some code customization. Go to /download-manager/tpls/wpdm-all-downloads.php
file and then replace marked line with following code,
https://www.evernote.com/l/AUfyzvfB7OBA3rbTJwWzMGvMyHsBR1-wTHQB/image.png
<a class="package-title" href='<?php echo wpdm_download_url($data); ?>'><?php the_title(); ?></a><br/>
It actually changes the_permalink();
to wpdm_download_url($data);
Yes I want to rename the following items
public function registerPostTypeTaxonomy()
{
$labels = array(
'name' ► __('Downloads', 'wpdmpro'),
'singular_name' ► __('Package', 'wpdmpro'),
'add_new' ► __('Add New', 'wpdmpro'),
'add_new_item' ► __('Add New Package', 'wpdmpro'),
'edit_item' ► __('Edit Package', 'wpdmpro'),
'new_item' ► __('New Package', 'wpdmpro'),
'all_items' ► __('All Packages', 'wpdmpro'),
'view_item' ► __('View Package', 'wpdmpro'),
'search_items' ► __('Search Packages', 'wpdmpro'),
'not_found' ► __('No Package Found', 'wpdmpro'),
'not_found_in_trash' ► __('No Packages found in Trash', 'wpdmpro'),
'parent_item_colon' ► '',
'menu_name' ► __('Downloads', 'wpdmpro')
);
};
But it would be nice to still be able to update the plugin.
Would the following work:
add_action( 'wp_loaded', 'wpse_19240_change_place_labels', 20 );
function wpse_19240_change_place_labels()
{
global $wp_post_types;
$p = 'wpdmpro';
// Someone has changed this post type, always check for that!
if ( empty ( $wp_post_types[ $p ] )
or ! is_object( $wp_post_types[ $p ] )
or empty ( $wp_post_types[ $p ]->labels )
)
return;
// see get_post_type_labels()
$wp_post_types[ $p ]->labels->name = 'Library';
$wp_post_types[ $p ]->labels->singular_name = 'Library';
$wp_post_types[ $p ]->labels->add_new = 'Add item';
$wp_post_types[ $p ]->labels->add_new_item = 'Add new item';
$wp_post_types[ $p ]->labels->all_items = 'All items';
$wp_post_types[ $p ]->labels->edit_item = 'Edit item';
$wp_post_types[ $p ]->labels->name_admin_bar = 'Library';
$wp_post_types[ $p ]->labels->menu_name = 'Library';
$wp_post_types[ $p ]->labels->new_item = 'New item';
$wp_post_types[ $p ]->labels->not_found = 'No itemes found';
$wp_post_types[ $p ]->labels->not_found_in_trash = 'No items found in trash';
$wp_post_types[ $p ]->labels->search_items = 'Search items';
$wp_post_types[ $p ]->labels->view_item = 'View item';
}
Hi,
Please check category settings from Downloads Category page. Maybe a category assigned to this download has ‘All Visitors’ access.
Check following screenshot, uncheck all checkboxes and save settings. That should fix it.

Hi,
Download Manager doesn’t have the version column is all downloads admin page. But it could be done, requires some code customization. We provide custom upgrade service, if you are interested please mail to customize@wpdownloadmanager.com to get a quote from our customization team.
Thanks.
Hi guys,
Before buying the add-on “Download Limit”, I have a question, I am using another plugin on my website “Out-of-the-Box” (Dropbox plugin).
And I was wondering, is it possible to link Download Manager Pro to a Dropbox account?
The idea is that I want to display a “PDF library” on a webpage, and I want to limit the number of downloads. I would like the users to log in in order to be able/allowed to download files.
Thank you in advance for your help.

Hi team,
I’m trying to solve a puzzle here and wonder if you could help speed up the process. I’ve got the following setup on a real estate agent website running fine so far:
Docs download with Email Lock option
Mailchimp Integration
Zapier pushing Mailchimp data to Active Campaign
Active Campaign starting a campaign
It all works fine, except that I need some sort of identifier; tag, URL, post tittle (preferably) being sent to Mailchimp in order to identify which property a client will me contacting me about and most important to be able to trigger different Active Campaign emails based on the property.
Questions are;
– how can I have the email lock asking for First Name, Last Name and Email and have them all set as required fields?
– how can I have the email lock sending an identifier to a Mailchimp field?
I’m rather confused if I’d need Advanced Custom Fields or WPDM Live forms add-on or if this can be achieved without them so I’m open to ideas and suggestions, as long as the identifier can be sent out to Mailchimp/Active Campaign. You may preview the site/downloads at http://www.rebeccak.co.nz/properties/89-mapua-drive/
Thanks,
Andre
The player does not work properly and shows a strange number after the song ends.
Example:

Also expecting an upgrade that plays all the songs in the package and differentiate downloads and play.
Thanks

All downloads worked in my test ( Both pc and mobile ). Please check following screenshot.
I have MemberMouse (membership plugin) installed on my site. It makes it’s own login page become the default. When I activated DM Pro, when I try to login that page hangs (the login button hangs on “sending…”) If I de-activate DM, everything goes back to working. To login as admin to my site I have to use wp-login.php
Any ideas why DM is causing the issue? Or what the best way is to use these two together (I intended to use DM to protect downloads in my online courses)
Thx!

On “wpdm-all-downloads.php” the icon name should be prepared with strtolower(), because I uploaded a image with extension captalized (.JPG), or you could convert to lower case on upload process.
Hi Shahriar,
Yes. And in all other download pages on this 1 site (screenshot attached):
http://cpmr-intermed.org/fr/downloads/groupe-eau-energie/
Also, in the package edit screen, on the Attached Files meta box, we see this error instead of the attached files (French version only – English is OK):
http://cpmr.org/cpmr-intermed/wp-admin/post.php?post=2396&action=edit&lang=fr&admin_bar=1
