Kindly try adjusting the Private Download Link Expiration period from
Settings > General > File DownloadLet me know how it goes.
When we receive the notification email and click the download link, we get an alert stating that the link has expired. However, if we use the Direct Download button instead, the file downloads successfully.
Hi,
Thanks for sharing the details.Please try the following steps:
– Update Download Manager to the latest version.
– Create a new download file
– After updating, clear your browser cache and try the new download link again.If the issue still occurs,
– Make sure
wpdmdlandwpdmkeyexcluded from being cached from both server/CDN level and the website caching/plugin level
– Deactivate all the plugins except download manager and check if the invalid message appears or not
– Switch the theme to a default one(Twenty Twenty-Five)Let us know how it goes.
I just had the license that was purchased by mistake swapped for the correct one, but I get an “Invalid Link” error when trying to manually download the plugin and add-ons. This happens on your website’s dashboard.
We are a WordPress website agency, and we have a client site using the free version of Download Manager. It was working fine until a couple of months ago, when users trying to download files with a password started inconsistently seeing an “Invalid Download Link” error.
We initially thought it was a caching issue and excluded the download page from Edge full-page caching, but it did not resolve the issue. We are wondering if it has to do with the “Lock Options” since the client has been using password-required downloads on the free version, but from your documentation it seems that should work fine, and the restriction is on setting a specific number of times that the password can be used. Is that correct?
Are there any other known issues with DIVI or plugin incompatibilities that may cause the “Invalid download link” issue?

Hello,
Automatic updates of Download Manager Pro fail on both domains attached to our license. We had to install 7.5.4 and 7.5.5 manually from our account. Order ID and domains follow in a private reply.
Environment
WordPress 7.1, PHP 8.4, Download Manager Pro 7.5.5 (installed manually)What happens
1. WordPress offers the update, then fails with an unpack error.
2. The package URL (https://www.wpdownloadmanager.com/?wpdmppdl=…&domain=…) returns HTTP 200 with a 1.7 KB HTML page saying “Invalid Access!” instead of a zip.What we checked
–POST /wp-json/wpdmpp/v1/license/validate, called from each server, returnssuccess: true,status: VALID,order_status: Completed, but alsodomain_registered: falsefor both domains, although both are listed inlicense.domains.
–domain_registeredstays false after several validation calls, so a successful validation does not seem to register the domain.
– A freshdownload_urlreturned by that endpoint (ind=0) also answers “Invalid Access!”, with or without&domain=. The older URL stored on the site fails the same way, so this is not a stale link on our side.Possibly related (7.5.x)
is_valid_license_key()insrc/wpdm-core.phprewrites the__wpdm_license_detoption withoutdownload_url, whileUpdater::updateCore()builds the update package from that field. Revalidating the license from the settings screen would therefore leave WordPress with an empty update package. We did not revalidate for that reason.Questions
1. Could you register both domains on the license, or tell us why they are reported as not registered?
2. Is anything else preventing the package URL from serving the zip for a valid license?
3. Is the missingdownload_urlafter revalidation a known issue?Thank you,

While you check…
I’ve tested on another laptop on Chrome browser, when clicking ADD TO CART button I was getting a message “Nothing’s added to cart yet” and of course not redirected to cart page.
I’ve also tested on my mobile, where everything’s worked 100% properly! Added file to cart, paid with PayPal, once completed process got redirected to ‘purchases’ page with login form and link to guest orders, clicked link and got redirected to guest order page with my purchased file and download CTA…This is “funny” behavior, doesn’t work on laptop but does on mobile. Setup seems then correct, but how comes this difference on behavior?
Hope it will work when testing with customer 😀
Waiting for any finding your side, of course.

Hi Tahasin, yes, both Guest Checkout and Download are enabled and I have created a _Guest_Order where I’ve used the [wpdmpp_guest_orders] shortcode, think this is correct setup.
But given the “Go to guest checkout page” does (or seems to) not work, I’ve noticed one thing: if I click the link on order email I get, the Guest Order page seems to properly open, with my purchased item I can therefore download; of course the default browser gets used to open it.
But if I copy/paste the link, either on default or another browser, then it doesn’t, when I fill in email and order ID fields nothing gets opened.
Might it be an expected behavior?I was wondering if there was a way to customize the purchase page removing the login form -since customer does not want customers to create an account- or create a customize link on guest order confirmation email so that Guest order page is directly opened with correct order ID.
Thank you

Topic: Invalid download link
Hi,
I am getting this “Invalid download link” 500 error on downloads when i enable reCAPTCHA. The reCAPTCHA appears to be setup correctly, and the test button in download manager settings says pass. When i’m logged into the wordpress site, downloads work fine, so its like even though acccess control is set to “All visitors”, its not actually giving access to guests.
I’ve read through every other invalid download link post on this forum and nothing seems to have helped. I deactivated any plugins that looked like they could interfere with no improvement.
I enabled debug logs and ran them through copilot, this is its summary:
“This shows:
– The page loads correctly.
– CAPTCHA validation succeeds.
– A WPDM AJAX request returns 400.
– The generated download link then returns 500 Internal Server Error.So the problem is not Google reCAPTCHA. The test result and logs both confirm CAPTCHA validation is successful.
The fault appears to be inside WordPress Download Manager (WPDM) after CAPTCHA has been accepted.”
Any ideas?

Once again, the problem does not stem from the custom template at all.
Let me explain the overall situation again:
The standard update for WPDM Pro wasn’t working—nor was the update for the WPDM Directory add-on, for that matter. You told me to perform the updates manually. I uploaded the WPDM Directory update first, and that ended up deleting the WPDM Directory add-on itself.Consequently, I had to manually reinstall it (the latest version) as well. That was when I noticed it had wiped out my download link template.
I couldn’t explain it any more clearly.
Ultimately, the problem lies with the updates themselves, which are neither reliable nor safe.

the problem doesn’t come from the custom template itself :

<div class=”text-muted text-small”>

Thanks for answering. At the end I had to download the plugin from the link you provided and reinstall it. It works now.
Hi,
Is there a way to change button color values in link templates? I’ve duplicated and modified a couple of them, but I haven’t been able to change that value.
Thanks.
In reply to: Invalid Download Link
Please fix this:
In WPDM 7.5.3, PackageLocks::handleEmailLock() (line 273) calls expirableDownloadLink($packageID, $limit, $expirePeriod) without the fourth $sessionOnly argument, which defaults to true in PackageController.php:1806. The key is therefore stored via Session::set() rather than TempStorage::set(…, DURABLE_SCOPE). Emailed links arrive without that session, so is_wpdmkey_valid() returns 0 and every link shows “Invalid download link”. Lines 2248 and 2517 pass false correctly. Lines 89, 111, 162 and 195 have the same omission.
Hi there, I am using this shortcode.
On initial load it only shows the packages from the 2 assigned Categories, Once I choose a Category from the drop down and then choose “all categories” in the drop down it shows all packages from all categories of my website and not the 2 assigned to this shortcode like on the initial load of the page.
[wpdm_all_packages category_filter="true" categories="Kleine Leute Großer Gott, Kleine Leute Großer Gott Zusatzmaterial" tag_filter="true" orderby="date" order="DESC" cols="page_link|categories|publish_date|download_link" colheads="Titel|Kategorie|Datum::150px|Download::100px"]
Any solution for this?

Hi there, as many other users I have the same problem. Unable to sort by date. The Table would always sort by the first column.
[wpdm_all_packages category_filter="true" categories="Kleine Leute Großer Gott, Kleine Leute Großer Gott Zusatzmaterial" tag_filter="true" orderby="date" order="DESC" cols="page_link|categories|publish_date|download_link" colheads="Titel|Kategorie|Datum::150px|Download::100px"]Any solution for this?
