I have checked that you have assigned categories too for the packages, it can happen with categories too. For categories hierarchy works like this,
Package Access = Package Access + All Category Access = All Visitors + Author = All Visitors
and Package Access = Package Access empty + Category Access(Author) = Author
or Package Access = Package Access(Author) + Category Access(Author) = Author
More details can be found in the below link,
https://www.wpdownloadmanager.com/doc/add-new-package/package-settings/allow-access-access-control-option/
Please kindly check and let me know.
Kindly try this one
[wpdm_all_packages thumb=1 items_per_page="20" categories="pubblicazioni" category_filter="true" order_by="update_date" toolbar='0' order="DESC" cols="title,file_count,download_count|categories|update_date|download_link" colheads="Title|Categories|Update Date|Download::155px"]
Let me know, how it goes.

Hello John Bob,
Hope you are well. You can use [page_link] in your page/link template from Downloads > Templates also in your every package edit page and Package settings the link/page template. For more template tags you can check here, https://www.wpdownloadmanager.com/doc/template-tags/, please kindly check.
Thank you
Hello. I am new to Download Manager and took over a project. How can I get the Title link to match the Download button link? Currently the Title link goes to a single post but I want it to actually download the file and not go to a post. Is this possible?

Hey guys,
I noticed that when downloading a package (or custom package via file cart) which contains files that have been renamed on upload with timestamp and “wpdm_”-prefix due to files with same name already existing (plugin setting is “rename existing files”, the prefixed files are downloaded as intended).
But when downloading these files one by one (by using the specific download link of these files) no prefixed filenames are created.
I wonder if maybe the wrong files might be downloaded instead in this case.
I need to add that we duplicated many packages (via a duplicator plugin) and replaced individual files inside those packages by deleting (then saving) and re-adding some of them (finally saving again).
Thanks in advance
Could it be due to this approach?
You have to use [fav_button] in your page or link template, for more or related template tags, please kindly check this doc, https://www.wpdownloadmanager.com/doc/template-tags/, please kindly check.
Thank you

Hello HappyHelper,
Hope you are well. The [wpdm_package] shortcode will work with link-template, it doesn’t load page template, you can also check the doc details here,
[wpdm_package] – Display a Single Download Package
Please kindly check.
Thank you and regards
Hello halibutblue,
Hope you are well. I think you are talking about Download Manager Pro version. The Pro version naming has been used as “Packages” and the free version uses “Files.” On the free version, there is no option for selecting a link template from package settings, but on Pro, there is an available option for selecting a link template. For the Pro version, you can download it from here: https://www.wpdownloadmanager.com/user-dashboard/?udb_page=purchases. Please kindly check.
Thank you.
I recently updated the plugin to 3.3.50. I noticed when I go to my download packages in the back end, that there is only a dropdown to select a page template. The dropdown to select the link template is missing. I am not using page templates on my site. I’m using 2 different link templates. The custom link templates I created are still listed in the link templates section, but I don’t see a space to select them anywhere on the download.
The issue does seem to be related to the update as I just made some packages a week or so ago & was able to apply my custom link templates.

I have only added the hidden field value using [wpdm_package_id], no other changes were made. The form will function correctly as long as this hidden value remains included.
You may choose one of the following options based on your preference:
– Allow users to download the file instantly after submission, or
– Send the package download link to the user via email
I have tested downloading the package, and I also received the confirmation email successfully.

Hi there,
Thanks for reaching out.
– Are you referring to not receiving the file link email after submitting the form lock? Also, share the subject or content of the two emails you received.
– To have the download button appear immediately after the form is submitted, simply deactivate the Email Download Link option.
Looking forward to your reply.
Regards

I am also having problems that all my links and buttons are blue, since the update.
It doesn’t matter what colour I set as default in Downloads > Settings > User Interface > Colors | Download Button | Shortcode Page. It is always blue for the Primary, grey for the Secondary etc.
I have added additional CSS in the customiser to override the styles on one of my sites, but I don’t want to have to do the same on all the other sites on which I also use this plugin.
Is this a known bug and will it be fixed soon?
Hello,
we have installed the Advanced TinyMCE Button add-on.
In the popup used to insert an attachment, it is possible to select the Link Template, but not the Page Template.
If we need to change the Page Template, we are forced to do it from the download section, and this action resets the Link Template selection previously made in the popup.
Is it possible to also select the Page Template directly within the popup?
Thanks
I’m using the following shortcode:
[wpdm_all_packages categories='NPC Minutes' orderby='date' order='desc' cols="page_link|categories|publish_date|download_link" colheads="Title|Category|Date Published|Download"]
and I thought that the table would have a toolbar with search/filter box, and the columns be sortable as per the documentation and the demo here.
However I have a table with no toolbar and not sortable. Is this because I’m using only using the free version of the plugin?
Thanks!
Hello,
After updating WP Download Manager (latest version), the frontend colors on my site have unexpectedly changed.
Before the update, the download button and links were green to match my site design. Now they are displaying in blue instead, and I cannot find where to change them back.
