Hi Shaon,
Now when we upload a document, when we try and download the file it just downloads a file called: download-manager-files with no extension. This doesn’t happen for previously uploaded files, only new ones. I have tested with multiple file formats (Word and Excel).
This is for the Ford & Doonan website. You should have login details but let me know.
This is rather urgent as the client desperately needs to upload some key documents.
Thanks
Ross
Hallo Shaon,
… great plugin. I like to work with it.
When I use combined categories in various short-codes, these are collected by comma and by an OR database operation. I have categorized lots of downloads with several tags and would like to use and AND database operation to build selection. Is there a setting to use short-codes configurations in this way ? (i.e category=”category-slug1 AND category-slug2″ to show packages which own both categories slug 1 and 2, instead of a collection of all slug 1 and 2 packages) . Would extend the plugin to a really mighty tool.
Best regards, M
Hi
I have bought your plugin and read all the documentation, however I am still struggling with a few things.
1. I have linked my page http://www.mbizana.gov.za/download/resources/ to Dropbox. In dropbox I have created a main folder with sub folders with files in. How do I get my page to display the folders, as there is going to be many folders and files uploaded by the client via dropbox and I can’t go and add each one individually. Users should be able to browse within one window between different folders.
2. How do I get the Download link away and replace it with a View link that will view the documents in an embedded viewer. Downloads should not be allowed.
Please help me as soon as you can.
Thanks.
I have been using WPDM for a few weeks with no problems. I use a custom link template that shows a small preview of the image being downloaded. However, this evening I added another download. After I added the download I checked my downloads page and the preview images are no longer there. Only the name of the file is present. I have no idea what I could have done to change this. I am attaching a picture of my download link to show you what I am getting. You have to click on the link to be taken to the page where you can see the image that you are downloading. Please help!
Thanks!!
Yesterday, I renewed my DMpro. After uploading the program into my website, I tried to activate the program and received the following fatal error. I tried to upload the wpdm-core.php file several times, but I still cannot see in the dm directory. No one can download from my site, and I would appreciate your help to resolve this issue as soon as possible. I have attached a screenshot of one of the page errors, where just the category shortcut is now showing on the page instead of the list of downloads.

Hi,
My website is still under development.I have around 170 packages. I have modified the template so that people download the packages from download buttons without the need to go to the download pages.
I find that the total number of downloads in the WordPress dashboard, and in the “all packages” posrtal suspiciously high.
i have posts with only 3 to 4 visits (i have “post views” plugin installed), but the package is downloaded 30 to 35 times.
so the number of downloads increase without the post getting visited.
can this be due to bots activities?
I have security plugins and follow strict security rules and high quality plugins and Avada theme. there is no hacking on hte server.
I don’t manually override the number and put a higher number!!
I tested the downloads and they are working properly, so the download count goes up by 1 when i download a package, but i am sure that the number of downloads is not right, otherwsie people will be downloading the packages without accessing the posts or the download pages !!
Any idea what might be happening?
Cheers,
Atef
How do I get a download list page with an image preview? Something like the “Popular Downloads” section of this page http://demo.wpdownloadmanager.com/wpdmpro/ but showing a preview of the download file (jpg or pdf).
Can you do this with [wpdm_tree] or [wpdm-all-packages]?
We just upgraded to v. 4.2.2 (actually 2.7.95 I think?) and now our individual downloads do not work from our download packages. The ZIP file can be downloaded fine, but when you click on an individual file you get an error “ERR_CONTENT_LENGTH_MISMATCH”.
I believe nearly this exact problem happened to us previously and you were able to do something to make it work again.
What is the short code to make view all downloads like this demo page?
Hi there,
This is my second installation of Download manager. The first worked exactly as desired. I’m running into the problems with the second. The problem is that the site doesn’t respect the Open in Browser checkbox in the settings. It downloads the pdf as a series of codes.
You can see what’s going on if you click on the download button on this page.

Hello, this plugin is the best.
I’m a week trying to understand why downloads of packages, 80%, are not completing.
Inidividual File Download is okay.
I already tried all the settings.
-Resumable Downloads
-Output Buffering
Can you help me?
