Hello Vinod,
Hope you are well. For disallowing crawling by the Search Engine. You can Mask Download Link, If you mask the download link, bots will not be able the find any public download link easily. You are able to find this setting from Downloads > Settings> Basic Settings. please check.
And another way for making disallow Crawling Download Manager Pages Google, Bing + search engines is, Add the following code at the end of your active theme’s functions.php:
function noindex_for_wpdm()
{
if ( is_singular( 'wpdmpro' ) ) {
echo '<meta name="robots" content="noindex, nofollow">';
}
}
I hope it may help you. Please check and let me know
Thank you and regards
Thx. We will test this.
Can you also tell me something about opening downloads in a new browser window? I know it works in some layouts, but not in the table form as we have it:
[wpdm_all_packages items_per_page="30" jstable=1 order_by="field_name" order="ASC/DESC" cols="title|download_link|categories" colheads="Title|Download|Partner"]
Dear Nayeem,
it’s complicated and it occurred to me at some point that it could also be due to the license. I have pulled the customer site on a subdomain to test. I forgot that I probably also need the license?
Second point: my customer needs the opening downloads absolutely in a new window. Therefore we got an adjustment in the class.Package.php from you as the manufacturer at that time. But this file doesn’t work anymore in the current WPDM version, that’s why the customer website still has version 5.1.18 installed.
Is there a possibility to have download files on a different domain to use a different storage space
AND to have them always open in a new window (target) with the current WPDM, so we don’t need any customization and also the backup files are not so big?
Somewhat desperate greetings
Julia
Hello CHS,
I have adjusted the option from Downloads > Settings > Basic > Access Settings > When user is not allowed to download:, Now all categories are coming properly for the wpdm_tree shortcode, please check and let me know.
Thank you and regards
Dear Nayeem,
I am at a loss or do not understand the system.
For example, if I upload a PDF to /home/www/alldownloads I can assign it to a download in WordPress. But in the frontend this can not be loaded by download. I get the error message of a critical error.
If I upload a file via WordPress in the normal way, I thought it will be stored in the file folder I entered in the settings (see above). But this is not the case. My test files are still uploaded under wp-content/uploads/download-manager-files but not found on frontend.
I still tried to disable all other plugins. The same result
Could you please help me again?
Hello Daniel,
Sorry for not understanding properly about the template tag. The template tag you can use in any page/link templates from the Downloads > Templates section, if you are using the PRO version, you will be able to see details of it. And after using it within any link-template you will be able to use any of your shortcode parameters. I hope you have understood now. And do you want to show the view button for the wpdm_all_packagesshortcode too, please let me know.
Thank you and regards
Hello,
Hope you are well.
Could you please show me an example of the gallery what you are looking for?
You can use like this demo by following the below shortcodes.
[wpdm_carousel category="category-id" autoplay=1 nav=1 dots=1 wrap=1 items_per_page=4 items_total=8 template="link-template-id"]
More details can be found here.
The best solution for you is the Directory Addon.
WPDM Directory Add-on
Using it you can show your categories in the sidebar which will be used to filter categorised downloads. Then on the right side, you can display your downloads/packages. Please check the demo here https://try.wpdownloadmanager.com/archive-page-flat/ The template in the demo doesn’t have the file preview but you can also display the preview using a custom link template.
Thanks.
Thank you.

Hi, I am using [wpdm_archive_simple] to show a certain number of categories. My client doesn’t want the list of all parameters within the order_by dropdown (see image at this link)
The client wishes to hide View Count, Package Size and number of Downloads. Is that possible by adding a function in my functions.php?
Also the client would like to change the output name “Publish date” to “Publication date”
Thank you very much

Hi,
On one of my downloads, I put a lock option as a Facebook page like. When I click on the download, the dialogue page pops up and asks me to like the page. After liking it, it takes a few seconds to start the download., The pages get the like. I have to manually close the Facebook page like a dialogue box. When I already liked the page, I have to dislike and like again to download the file. Like it doesn’t know I already liked the page.
Here is the video, explaining the issue.

Hi @humayon!
Good news: after we installed the latest version of WPDM Pro the downloads are working again now!
Thank you so much for your kind and professional support!
Keep up your good work!

Hi, how can we send you Slovenian translations so you can include them in the installations and updates so we don’t have to upload them every time when we update your plugins?
Also, we translated all POT files but two things remain not translated on frontpage of Archive plugin: the “LOADING” tab which appears from the bottom of the page and “All downloads” in breadcrumbs (“All downloads is translated but when you click “Home” in breadcrumbs, it turns into “All downloads”)
Thank you.

Hi WPDM-Pro-Support Team!
Hope I wouldn’t bore you with an easy to solve problem:
On our corporate website we’re providing free download of two white papers (https://viadoo.de/whitepaper). As a user, all you need to do is entering your name and (corporate) email-address. BUT: As soon as you click “download”, the browser says either that it can’t reach the file (here: “https://viadoo.de/download/whitepaper-remote-leadership/?wpdmdl=18065&_wpdmkey=626a8e87691dc&subscriber=Ct8XbJmEsklAmNrCziBbF5CFkIoDHfW4N-9DKHR8gbiW8Ls66fTpuTeT_0pVAzGBOLhZQqlVTUq19LtYwguUlg” (Chrome) or simply “kCFErrorDomainCFNetwork error 303” (Safari).
Meanwhile, the WPDM Pro plugin registers all users’ downloads as successful. So in the end, we get the information from WPDM-Pro that several customers downloaded our whitepapers successfully – what isn’t the case in fact – and we have a lot of dissatisfied customers, instead.
Have you any hint for us to solve this problem?
Thx in advance!
Dominik

Good morning. I have to advertise a file downloads page. If a user clicks on the download page that I have advertised and is not registered, he must register to download the file. After registering, he does not automatically return to the downloads page for the file but to his user profile page. I would like the user to return to the downloads page automatically
Hello Andrew,
Glad to see you again.
Please check this page I created in your website for a specific category.
I have created this page which sorts downloads properly using the shortcodes here
You can follow the page for other categories too.
Thanks

Hi Nayeem,
It is more complicated than I thought it would be. I will read that info and I will have a go.
Apart from that, could you help me with this? why after adding the downloads counter in the “archive-template” only appears in the default language and not in all?
Appears in https://hre.es/descargas/
Does not appear in https://hre.es/en/downloads/
Thanks
