I added the line of code to the wpconfig file as requested. I didn’t change any of the other settings. I tried to download a new file and am now getting this error:
Warning: Error while sending QUERY packet. PID=58385 in /public_html/wp-includes/wp-db.php on line 2056

As well as this error still:

This isn’t happening all the time, only sometimes. If I try to download the same file twice it mostly works on the second or third try.
Allowing multiple locks I think it is required customization code. But for email lock, there also has been set subscription system, you shall find subscriber from Downloads > Subscriber > Email Lock, please check
thanks
Yes, thank you for taking efforts to point out the issue. I don’t know what you did but now I am able to edit that template even if multiple locks are enabled on all other downloads.
On the same note, the reason I had to use multiple locks is that I did not want to send download without approval. And I need them to subscribe to my newsletter before downloading. Abd that’s exactly the limitation of WPDM. Number one, it does not give a subscribe option in the download when I used email lock alone. Then I had to use a form lock which captures person’s details and subscription acknowledgement. This is work around but its annoying that there would be two parts of the form with two submit button for users. I wish WPDM had two features 1) allows multiple locks but one final submit button or 2) wait for approval option in every lock, so that just one lock could serve the function completely.
My program does not say TOP Packages, but yes, Downloads > Stats > Insight section.I want a simple way to see all counts of individual packages at one time.
Thanks
Is there all tags are missing now, or some part missing, please check from Downloads > Tags section
thanks
Please simply click the Save Settings again for license key option from Downloads > Settings > License, that will regenerate the access token. Finally, go to plugins page and update will work fine this time
Or,
1 ) Download the latest version from here https://www.wpdownloadmanager.com/user-dashboard/?udb_page=purchases
2 ) Install the latest version and activate the license key.
thanks

My colleagues spend a lot of time defining and applying tags to all the downloads. Since recent updates most of the tags however seem te be missing. Is there a way to get them back?
I am also having the same problem. My history of downloads stopped working around December 11th. This is really important for me as my site needs to track downloads for legal reasons.
I was autoupgraded to version 3.1.12 at some point. It Would be nice if your change log listed dates
I am on WP Version 5.6
I am using PHP 7.4.14
I have disabled every plugin except for the downloads plugin. I usually host files on s3 so I used WPDM but I have also disabled this and tried downloading files from the media library.
I have also tried different themes
It does not work.
After updating to 5.3.3 I am receiving a critical error when opening specific pages that contain downloads and I can’t open the “all downloads” section in the backend – I am receiving a critical error. Can you help? I have never had these kind of problem before. Thanks!

thanks
When trying to download small single PDF files I am getting this error repeatedly:

I’ve searched around but can’t find anything.
Wordpress: 5.3
WPDM: 3.1.12
PHP Version: 7.3.23
PHP Max Input Vars: 3000
WP Memory Limit: 768 MB
PHP Time Limit: 120
We received a surge of downloads (~17,000) on the 30th of December 2020 from a relatively few number of IP addresses, all ‘Unknown browser’. This has skewed our download stats which we rely upon to report our conservation impact to donors so I need to clean the download statistics record so that it is accurate.
I have two requests to improve the stats area:
1. Please can you add a sort feature to the ‘Download history’ tab so that we can sort the downloads by ‘Browser’ and ‘IP’ to make investigation easier?
2. Can you add a feature to select and bulk remove download records (and at the same time also reduce the package download counter for each deleted download record)?
I work for a charity working to conserve coral reefs from the impacts of tourism. Our website https://greenfins.net/action-centre hosts a public download area where we share conservation posters and other materials. WP Download Manager has been brilliant so far and I’m grateful for the developers who have invested so much time into making and maintaining the plugin. This is very important for us so I hope that someone can help!
Thank you,
James
Hello,
I work for a charity working to conserve coral reefs from the impacts of tourism.

WP Download Manager has been brilliant so far and I’m grateful for the developers who have invested so much time into making and maintaining the plugin.
We received a surge of downloads (~17,000) on the 30th of December from a relatively few number of IP addresses, all ‘Unknown browser’. This has skewed our download stats which we rely upon to report our conservation impact to donors so I need to clean the download statistics record so that it is accurate.
My specific questions are:
1. Is there a way of preventing or limiting automated bots from downloading files using the standard functionality of WP Download Manager, perhaps with a download cap or a notification if a visitor downloads more than 30 files? (as a charity we can’t afford to spend lots of money on additional add-ons or custom development)
2. Please can you add a sort feature to the ‘Download history’ tab so that we can sort the downloads by Browser and IP to make investigation easier?
3. Can you add a feature to select and bulk remove download records (and at the same time also reduce the download counter for the relevant package)?
p.s. I’m also experiencing the ‘Invalid nonce!’ error described here meaning I can’t export the history to examine downloads in a spreadsheet: https://www.wpdownloadmanager.com/support/topic/export-download-stats-history-returns-invalid-nonce-error/
This is very important for us so I hope that someone can help!
Thank you,

We built our woocommerce site and then determined our downloads needed enhanced security. They have worked together well for 2 years, but not so well now.
Do you really intend to walk away from this market?

Thank you for your quick reply. I reinstalled the Advanced Access control and can see the options but the files are not showing up where they should. I see them in the “my downloads” however they aren’t showing up where I have a template. Does the template code below need updating?
<div class=’media’>
<table width=”100%” border=”0″ cellpadding=”3″>
<tbody>
<tr>
<td height=”10″ colspan=”3″>
<span class=”media-body” style=”text-align: left”>
<p style=”text-align: left; font-size: large;”>[title]<br>
<span style=”font-size: xx-small”>(updated: [update_date])</span> </p>
</span></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<th width=”85%” scope=”col”><span class=”media-body” style=”text-align: left; font-size: x-small;”>[file_list] </span></th>
</tr>
</tbody>
</table></div>
When a user logs in files are not showing up that they should have access to. It actually wasn’t working before I updated to the latest version so I thought I should update everything but it still doesn’t work. On the user dashboard it doesn’t show “my downloads” like it should and when I go to a file to select the user it should be shared with the option is not there.
Hi,
we have upgraded to V5.3.3, but still can’t get wpdm_category or wpdm_packages to work.
What we require is a list of downloads showing:
- All packages of the specified category and any child categories
- Filtered by one or more tags (i.e. win32 AND dropbox)
We have created a test page here. Category pse402b20308 is a child of category erp-scale-pse.

Have you checked this option as I image attached,

from Downloads > Settings > Basic > Access Settings > When user is not allowed to download:, please check and let me know
thanks
