please unzip it first, you will see 3 packages there. install v3.3.5.rc1. please delete free version first if already installed.
install other add-ons from here, http://www.wpdownloadmanager.com/downloads/add-ons/ for copy data from free to pro, tinymce button, download button image …
1) install and activate image button add-on.
2) go to admin menu Downloads Settings Buttons Tab
3) Select (just click) a button image
4) or upload your own image and select
5) Save Changes
That’s all. All of your download link should show with that image.
anyhow next update of wpdm pro will have new option to use image directly with download_link tag like this:
[download_link image-url-here]
OK I have been able to also see that the Addons in the special gift pack are not showing up either. This is a weird issue, because i am able to get the free version in the WP Repo to work flawlessly.
To elaborate a bit more:
I am using WordPress 3.5, with multi-site (directories) enabled. This is the only site on the network, and I have super admin role/capabilities.
Once the plugin is installed, and network activated, I am able to see the “Downloads” menu item it in the ‘sub-site’. But the plugin does not show up in the “plugins” section.
This kinda makes sense though if the issue is in-fact some weird permissions thing
To fill right side, just try select another link template for that category.
And if you looking for premium theme, specially optimized for wpdm pro, you may check here:

Update: OK, Things seem to be downloading fine now (strange) so that bits fixed.
Am I able to just display the folders in the tree view without all the documents underneath too. All the documents are in categories but for some reason show in the category list as well as underneath the folder structure
already did that Shaon, the base url slugs are “downloads” and “download”.
I have a page called downloads, but still somehow the “wpdmpro” page pops up, without anything in it. I have defined two categories that do not show up on that page.
It seems that templates are just for links and places that the package is promoted. Is there a way to customize the appearance of the details page. For example, we want to allow individual file downloads, but there are no passwords. It looks odd to have a table with a blank column for password. Also, we do not need the download button for the zip file. Also, we’d prefer that the row for stock not appear in the other table. What’s that supposed to be for anyways?
How do you have all the downloads on one page? I have twenty files but they are broken up into 2 different pages and I’d just like one. Thanks in advance
Interesting, if I disable all my plugins except WPDM. I’m left with this –Warning: Invalid argument supplied for foreach() in /home/cupe905/public_html/wp/wp-content/plugins/download-manager/functions.php on line 1632

Is there a solution for my problem? Please check the site at: http://www.reflektis.com/downloads/mgc/.
I would like the category page to contain more extensive description for all the downloads in that category.
But wont this remove it from all lists that I use, and as I have used the ‘dot’ for lists on my site which i need. At a push I can put up with the ‘dot’ its a little annoying, but the main issue is that the icon are not appearing???
I have just updated to version 3.3.3 and noticed that I am getting some strange things happen.
http://www.md0mdi.com/_blog/old-timers-of-the-isle-of-man/
I have attached a link to a page that I have setup with a download named ‘RSGB Callbook’, here are the problems:
1. There is a ‘dot’ appearing at the start of the download box, this appears outside of the box in the top left hand corner in Firefox (17.0.1), and in Chrome (23.0.1271.95 m) it appears inside the box in the top left hand corner, how do I get rid of this ‘dot’???
2. In firefox, the icon for the download does not appear at all, and in chrome it just displays a small image that is nothing like the one that I have selected, I have tried to change the icon, but nothing is displayed in either browser, this did work fine prior to updating, how do i rectify this???
3. Underneath the word ‘test’ there is ‘…’ , is there a way to get rid of this???
4. The View Details option! how do i keep the ‘Bootstrap’ layout and remove the option to ‘View Details’
Any help would be much apprected…

I too am having the same issue, in the free version there was a short code icon you could select to insert your download packages, once i installed pro there is no icon, and I can’t figure out how to paste template downloads into my pages? Please advise, i have sent user info and login for you to check out.
Thanks
I partially solved the problem to this issue (at least in my case).
Others may be experiencing the same thing…so here’s what I found:
A handful of hosting providers now have a WordPress QuickInstall feature.
Sometimes they bundle in a Cache plugin when you do a fresh QuickInstall.
HostGator, for example, now includes the WP Super Cache plugin.
If activated it may be causing an issue with the Download Manager plugin.
I have not tested this out with WP Super Cache but I was using something similar called W3 Total Cache.
I know a ton of WordPress sites use it as well…( 1,332,719 downloads from the WordPress Plugin Directory)
Disabling this plugin allowed me to download files greater than 50MB in size.
They were uploaded via ftp and then added to my files page by using the Download Manager category shortcode.
Testing must be done in order to figure out where/how they are interfering and how to correct it.
I’ll post an update if I find anything.
Hi, is there a shortcode to display ALL downloads? Thanks
Hi, I have a completely separate page (not related to the plugin) that I’m calling “Downloads” (www.mysite/downloads) and it is showing another page on the site “About Us” even though the URL is for Downloads. This only happens when the plugin is active. Can you please advise? Thanks!
When downloading a large file, the speed is fine for somewhere between 20% and 60% of the download then it completely freezes.
I been running in to this more and more. Now that it seem that I have all my downloads working with the Download Manger Pro Version 3.3.2 I starting to have this problem.
Any thoughts on what the problem could be?

Page where most of my big download files are.
actually the code will be a bit lengthy and not possible to show example here
Hey again Shaon,
good to hear you are alive 😉
# widget: the problem is, that I can not change the format of the list created. If you have a look at the page glory.cgdu.de you’ll see, that below the video-center there is the widget. It presents the last five downloads in two collumns. I don’t want that, I want it in a row and for that reason I need to take out the ul (unordered list) and li (list item) tags – I guess.
# search: if you go to glory.cgdu.de/downloadfs you’ll see, that the search is performed (without any arguments) as the page is loaded. That returns “all packages”. This doesn’t really makes sense, but if that is normal just let me know what the customization would cost and then let’s go for it.
# the code displayed with the audio player: if you go to http://glory.cgdu.de/download/unser-fundament you’ll see that next to the buttons of the audioplayer there is a piece of code (/is/htdocs/wpFZSTQAHIUX/www/cgnew//mp3/EB2012/12 09 23) If that is standard then please let me know what a customization would be and let’s go for that as well …
I am sitting on an airplane for the next few hours and will be looking for your reply as I am back online….
Thanks again and best regards …
Martin
I have contacted your support several times with the issue that the search function in the WPDM directory addon does not include the text description but only the title. Even though you reply that you have helped me the search function still doesn’t work. Can you please tell me how to fix this problem?
Also, I have a issue with comments. It seems like all comments end up on the same page. Is there a way to fix this so that all downloads have an individual page and the comments end up there?
