Which link template are you using now? Please check the package settings and find the selected link template. Then clone this link template from Downloads Templates page. In this new cloned link template, you have to replace [download_link] with [download_link_extended] to use an embedded form instead of popup.
You can also override the link template selected in package settings by defining the template in your package shortcode. Check the example below,
[wpdm_package id=5387 template="link-template-calltoaction1"]
You can set the new cloned template ID as value of template in package shortcode [wpdm_package id=5387 template="5a0a849876116"]

Hello,
I have a file structure like below on WPDM:

Using the short code [wpdm_my_downloads login=1] I can limit each logged in user to only see the categories and files which they have permissions to. However, I like the layout of the [wpdm_Tree] much better. Is it possible to use the [wpdm_Tree] view and limit the users to only see the categories and files they have permissions to?
I have already installed the Custom Access Level plugin and set “When user is not allowed to download:” to “Hide everything”
I am using the wordpress download manger and I am using this code to display the download lists in an order so that it orders by update_date, but somehow its not working, Can you please help me fix the issue. Here is the short-code I am using
[wpdm_all_packages items_per_page="20" categories="brochures" order_by="update_date" ]
This is my webpage where its listing all the downloads https://tritool.com/news-resources/resources/brochures/ The update date are showing wrong on this page if you click the available download file for details you will see the accurate update dates for every download.
Get the file from here. I have added the code in line 380 and tested it on my setup.

The search option is available in the data table version of all packages table. Not everything in this template is editable because some parts are controlled by the data table js library.
It is possible to hide the number of packages per page dropdown using custom css. It is also possible to add search placeholder. Create a copy of the wpdm-all-downloads.php template file and place it in /active-theme/download-manager/ directory. Then send temporary wp-admin login info in private reply. I will make the code updates to add these features.
Hello Kyle,
Please send temporary wp-admin login info in private reply. I will update the code for you. To make these changes permanent copy the wpdm-all-downloads.php file and place it in /active-theme/download-manager/wpdm-all-downloads.php directory. I will edit this new template file.
Thanks.
Advanced Custom Fields ( https://www.wpdownloadmanager.com/download/advanced-custom-fields/ ) add-on allows you to add additional fields in email lock. And Form Lock ( https://www.wpdownloadmanager.com/download/wpdm-form-lock/ ) add-on allows locking downloads behind custom forms made by different Form Plugins. You can check if those options are viable for you.
As I wrote before, I’m using Bulk import page, but I cannot set the correct mapping for some fields using the previously attached csv.
For example:
– Category (I created category in Downloads > Category and in Posts> Category as well, but no one are linked)
– File Name (Inside the page I see the name of the .pdf instead the filename)
– Access permission (always set as Full access)
The packages you see in backend were manually modified after the import. In screenshot the packages imported with csv (no manually modify).
Could you please help me?
You can modify the labels using register_post_type_args filter. Add the following code to your theme’s functions.php file and adjust the labels as you want.
add_filter('register_post_type_args', 'wpdm_modify_posttype_labels', 10, 2);
function wpdm_modify_posttype_labels($args, $post_type){
if ($post_type == 'wpdmpro'){
$labels = array(
'name' ► __( "Downloads" , "download-manager" ),
'singular_name' ► __( "Download" , "download-manager" ),
'add_new' ► __( "Add New" , "download-manager" ),
'add_new_item' ► __( "Add New Download" , "download-manager" ),
'edit_item' ► __( "Edit Package" , "download-manager" ),
'new_item' ► __( "New Download" , "download-manager" ),
'all_items' ► __( "All Downloads" , "download-manager" ),
'view_item' ► __( "View Download" , "download-manager" ),
'search_items' ► __( "Search Downloads" , "download-manager" ),
'not_found' ► __( "No Download Found" , "download-manager" ),
'not_found_in_trash' ► __( "No Downloads found in Trash" , "download-manager" ),
'parent_item_colon' ► '',
'menu_name' ► __( "Downloads" , "download-manager" )
);
$args['labels'] = $labels;
}
return $args;
}
Please send temporary wp-admin login info in private reply Or add the following code after line 235 in /download-manager/tpls/wpdm-all-downloads.php file,
if( ! wpdm_user_has_access(get_the_ID())) continue;
I can not reproduce a simple grid to sell my downloads as shown here:
https://demo.wpdownloadmanager.com/wpdmpro/list-packages/
since there is no documentation to follow,
Therefore i tried to use the ‘WPDM Directory Add-on ‘ and produce the ‘1 Column, Extended’ as shown here https://demo.wpdownloadmanager.com/wpdmpro/ready-to-use-templates/
The issue appears to be with CSS and the use ‘col-md-X’ of several plugins, however i don’t want to spend all day finding and editing code that should already be correct.
After almost $200 spent here i’m finding that your documentation is quite poor.
1 ) Please check this link https://www.wpdownloadmanager.com/doc/using-premium-package/setting-up-paypal-smart-button-for-premium-packages-digital-ecommerce-plugin/
2 ) Swift doesn’t support the additional previews yet. Will add this in next version. But can use the WPDM Page Template add-on which will allow you to use any Page Template from Downloads Templates page.
One of your plugins is creating the JS error which is blocking the download operation. We can bypass it using a custom link template. Please install the Pro version of Download Manager and then you can create custom link template from Downloads Templates page. Or just let me know after installing Pro. I will create the template for you.

Hi,
The add-ons page just lists the Download Manager add-ons https://www.wpdownloadmanager.com/downloads/add-ons/ It doesn’t have any other purpose.
Your server is blocking the connection to https://www.wpdownloadmanager.com/ server. That’s why it can’t load the add-ons list. But you can check the list from here too https://www.wpdownloadmanager.com/downloads/add-ons/ or just ask your server support to allow the connection although that’s not necessary.
Thanks.
Hi,
Thanks for choosing the Download Manager Pro!
1 ) Download Manager uses the active theme’s single.php template to show the details page. The single.php controls the layout but using WPDM Page template you can control the view of package-related content. In each package settings, you will find an option to set the page template. All WPDM Page Templates are listed in Downloads Templates page and you can create your own template.
If you want to control the layout too, then create a template file named single-wpdmpro.php and place it in your theme directory. This is the WP Core level template that will be used to show WPDM packages. You can copy the single.php and remove the parts ( comment reply, sidebar, etc ) you don’t need.
2 ) I have to check your page to suggest custom CSS. Maybe the styling is coming from your theme.
Best regards.
Hello everybody,
I’m looking for some infos about csv bulk import mapping.
I’m using WPDM Pro, with Advanced CSV Import. I download and fill each field of sample .csv, I upload it to >CSV importer, and I get the screen about mapping fields.
I cannot understand how I have to map some fields (not the custom ones, but standards).
As example, I cannot import downloads’ category. What is the correct field? post_category does not work, and I don’t have such an option as WPDM:_category or similar.
Same error on some other fields, as file_titles and so on…
I send you attached the screenshot with the field I can’t map correctly (red underlined), and all the available fields in the select menu…
Could you please help me in mapping them correctly?
Thank you in advance
Alessio

We are using Enfold theme but the login page is not allowing a slider we want to add at the top that goes under the logo (so that the logo and navigation will show). This works on the register page and dashboard page, just not the login page.
Here is a link to the login
https://dev.hostsites.cloud/acaw/downloads-login/
here is a link to the register
https://dev.hostsites.cloud/acaw/downloads-register/
As you can see the login page does not have that image at the top even though within the page itself (backend) it has been added.
Anythoughts
Hi,
It is because you are not using the latest version of the file download-manager/tpls/wpdm-all-downloads.php, probably, you are using a customized copy, however, if you want to use the latest version of that file, please download the latest version from premium download are and replace that file or all.
I followed the instructions för List all downloads in … but even if I copy the code it is still the same with Creation date. I have tested with jstable.1 as well…
This is my code:
[wpdm-all-packages categories="movies,mechatronics-process,distribution-systems-furniture,electrical-machines-drives-program,electrical-power-systems,electricity-electronics,energy,general,material-testing,motor-control-system," order_by="post_title" order="asc" toolbar=1 items_per_page=100 cols="title|categories|update_date" colheads="Title|Categories|Update Date" template="59b7929f8812d"]
What is wrong?
Checking preview issue ( however, that will not cause any functional issue ). To change any column in all downloads table, please follow the doc here:
[wpdm_all_packages] – List all downloads in tabular format in a page
Hi,
All users from the same IP are counted as a single user when downloading as a guest. If you download files as a logged user than different user downloads will make a separate entry in stats table even when users are using the same IP.
Thanks.
Yup, plugin was installed but not activated. I just installed it and the site went down and had to reactivate all needed plugins. I did not recognize the plugin so it was not activated. Still getting message when opening membership options but downloads and membership does work. Will mark resolved.
