If you are allowing the download only by logged users, then no need to collect the email address that is already associated with the account. Because you can get the all downloaders email address from the Downloads Stats page when exporting the download history. So, only activating the term lock serves your purpose.
It is also possible to make it work the way you explained above. It requires some code customization. You have to use a custom template for /download-manager/tpls/lock-options/email-lock-form.php
Here is the template customization doc https://www.wpdownloadmanager.com/doc/template-files/
Hi,
You don’t need custom fields to get user agreement. The “Terms and Conditions” lock does exactly what you want. Enable the lock from Package Settings Lock Options To know who accepted the terms enable the email lock too. You can see all collected email addresses from Downloads Subscribers page.
Thanks.
Hi Ajay, Thanks for using WPDM.
You can use items_per_page: Items to show per page within the shortcode to limit the no of display.
Here is the Docs to follow ► https://www.wpdownloadmanager.com/doc/short-codes/wpdm_all_packages-list-all-downloads-in-tabular-format-in-a-page/
Please let me know if you have any confusion or more support.
Thank you
It is possible to add the tags column using some code customization. We have to use a custom template /tpls/wpdm-all-downloads.php
I have modified the template file to add tag support. You can download it here https://www.dropbox.com/s/pmmvc9dr4cg7sz2/wpdm-all-downloads.php?dl=0
Place the file in /active-theme/download-manager/wpdm-all-downloads.php location to override the default template. Then use tags in your all packages shortcode to show package tags.
It does support the AND operator.
Example Shortcode,
[wpdm_tag id="add-on,free" title="Downloads by Tag" desc="" toolbar="1" order_by="title" order="asc" item_per_page="10" template="link-template-calltoaction1" cols=1 operator="AND"]
Hi Shahriar,
I am afraid we have a problem with your solution as mentioned om March 16 above, Your answer:
6 ) Add the following line after this code localStorage.removeItem(‘file_cart_data’);
$(‘#file-cart’).html(‘<ul class=”list-group file-cart-list”><li class=”list-group-item”>File cart is empty‘);
When I do this, File cart is empty indeed, very happy with that, and download pop-up appears but then the original form generated by the Form Lock Add on is shown again with the notice: Fields are mandatory. This doesn’t look good.
You can try it yourself on this page: https://www.iqheadquarter.nl/regiobranding/regiobranding-categorie/
Would be great if you can solve this.
And another question, the download zip is allways the same name: something like custom-pack-83-85-82-239.zip
This is not good because we have people who come back regularly and if the old zip is still in the downloads directory they will get an error at downloading. Like: this file already exists. Not technical people will not understand so it would be much better is every download has a different name. Is this possible?
Thanks, Ariane

Directory add-on is a separate add-on. You have to purchase it separately if you want to use those AJAX search and filter enabled directory views.
Core plugin has a category shortcode too ( https://www.wpdownloadmanager.com/doc/short-codes/wpdm_category-query-all-downloads-from-one-or-more-categories/ ) but has limited feature.
You can also use all packages shortcode ( https://www.wpdownloadmanager.com/doc/short-codes/wpdm_all_packages-list-all-downloads-in-tabular-format-in-a-page/ ) which allows you to filter packages by category.
When I create a Package with reference to eg. three Select Members, it is only the one selected member that equals the Author (see enclosed “Select Members”) that shows up on the Public Profile Page [wpdm_user_profile] – (see enclosed “User Profile1”).
When I log in as another member – nothing shows (see enclosed “User Profile2”).
The package is shown under “My Downloads” for all three members, but it is not possible to make a purchase from “My Downloads” (see enclosed “My Downloads”).
What is the best way to set up a package for purchase using Premium Package and Advance Access Control?
Thanks!
Jesper
So, you want to limit the access to premium package even before purchase?
You can do that by setting “Hide Everything” in “When user is not allowed to download:” option. ( Downloads Settings Basic Access Settings )
Now only users from “Select Members:” field will be able to make the purchase.

Thanks for the reply. We updated to the latest version of WPDM-Form Lock. That fixed the display issues and the pages appear to be rendering correctly.
However, we had Ninja Forms plugin forms working with the previous version and they do not appear to be working with the current version. If you checkout downloads on our live site https://extechinc.com/lightwall-3440-polycarbonate-wall-panels/ you will see the popover without any form being displayed.
Any suggestions? Thanks.
I have a bunch of downloads on our website where we currently use Box links instead of hosting on the website. Now, we would like to upload the files to the site. However, when I remove the Box link and add the pdf the download link does not work how it should. I am wanting it to prompt the location where the user would like to save it. I’ve tried all of the download link options and none seem to work however it is saving it in my downloads folder on my computer. Nothing is popping up saying it is doing that though. If I create a new package, all works just fine. It is only on the ones where I am switching from using the Box link to uploading the file. I really don’t want to have to create new packages for every single download as there are a lot. Am I doing something wrong?
Thanks,
Hayley
This one I have also sorted
1. https://ps-cardiagnostics.com/all-downloads/ – How can I get this page to show all products. I don’t like the pagination at the bottom 1-5 next
Okay I managed to sort this one out myself
2.If you look at the diagnostics page – https://ps-cardiagnostics.com/downloads/diagnostics-software/, you can see at the footer of the site with pagination 1,2,3 next. How can I make this page to show all products rather rather having the pagination? Thanks
We recently updated to php 7.2 but this update broke our display for anything related to Downloads Manager. Below is a link to the page where one of the display issues is occurring. Please advise.

Hi!
Is it possible to allow only selected users to access a specific purchase?
Advanced Access Control help to control user specific access to files and downloads, but I can’t see how to control user specific access to a specific purchase.
Hope this I possible.
Thanks!

2.If you look at the diagnostics page – https://ps-cardiagnostics.com/downloads/diagnostics-software/, you can see at the footer of the site with pagination 1,2,3 next. How can I make this page to show all products rather rather having the pagination? Thanks
I think that’s all for now
Hi,
You can restrict download by role using free version too. When you are creating a new package you can “Allow Access” to the packages in the Package settings tab.
You can also allow access by user role to the packages under a category from download category management.
You can also check our Advanced Access Control ► https://www.wpdownloadmanager.com/download/advanced-access-control/ add-on will help you to control user specific access to your files and document downloads.
Thank you
On our site, we have multiple roles for employees that have different permissions handling different tasks on our community. We have the Pro version and have a role called “Customer Support” that we want to be able to export the stats but when we are logged in as that role, we can’t see “Stats” (under “Downloads”) in the admin. We are using the plugin “User Role Editor” but no matter what capability I’ve tried adding to the role, they still can’t see that option (and other ones). Can you help me understand why and if it’s possible to change this? I hope this makes sense…let me know.
Thank you in advance for your help!
Leslie
Looks like you have already added the download links there. For anyone else looking to implement the same thing, you can generate the download link from Downloads All Packages page. There is a generate download URL button under each package title.
I have an existing Download Manager Free plugin installed. How do I add my new Pro license? I don’t see anything under Downloads > Settings about licenses. I did add my wpdownloadmanager.com login to the Updates page. Under “Purchased Add-ons” it shows nothing.
Good Morning,
I have some documents on my website which are linked as documents from Media, i would like to add these to Download Manager so i can track downloads. For example on this page, http://culchethhigh.org.uk/parental/ there are a list of policies and these documents that i want adding.
I have gone through all the Default Template options and cant find one that is suitable as i would like one that when viewed by the public they dont see the file size, downloads and a download button, its is just a text link as i already have.
Would this be a possible option?
Thank you
