Hello,
I have updated to last version of Download manager 6.0.0.
First thank you for this updating. the Categories problem when click on the next buttons it is ok now and is working fine 🙂
But you promised to solve some problems in the upcoming version. But unfortunately you did not do them.
The most important problems are:
1 – Arrange the categories by alphabet.
Example:

2- You wrote to me that we can translate or change some words (as “All categories”) to other languages by updating this
file “download-manager.po” to the upcoming version. Unfortunately, it did not work.
Please See this video

I hope you can fix these problems as soon as possible.
Thank you
About your last message :
You wrote to me : The search feature is working fine from our testing site while activating Gutenberg Blocks and Page Layouts – Attire Blocks add-on. I think it may have somewhere other confliction. can you please enable/disable other plugins for checking, you may also switch theme to another for checking, please let me know.
I would like to let you know that the search feature is not working. I have enabled/disabled other plugins for checking, and also switched theme to another for checking but the problem is still there!!!
What do you advice?
This is the link:
مكتبة قنشرين المسيحية
Thanks
Thanks. I hadn’t done it that way. I just duplicated it in the original location and edited it in there, hence now it’s gone after the update, which makes sense.
I did keep a backup as I thought it might be the case. I have placed it in the location your link suggests but it doesn’t seem to pick it up. Do i need to do anything after for the plugin to see those templates?
The modification i needed was just adding a download button in addition to the view details one, which was working fine.
Hello @juan_ateb,
Sorry for some late back in reply. I think it is working fine and looking nice with link-template-card
now, I have used from it Downloads > Templates > link-template
section,
Compliance Manual
and for link-template-card-download.php
file, have you created manually and kept backup following this doc?
Template Files
please let me know. and please ask me any issue related query in detail you have remained
Thank you and regards
Hello @bgrinter,

Sir for AdSense I will show you the report after few days. for the old version and the new version.
and yes my all addons are updated.
another problem sir when I shared any package URL on Facebook and then trying to download the file. so during downloading it shows first my hosting path and then download. I mean now my file’s path is not safe and anyone can copy my direct links. it is a very critical problem sir.

Sir, you can see the difference between old and new versions, I did not say that ads are completely not showing but ads are showing less than the old versions. my yesterday Adsense page CTR was 2.97% and today is 2.11%
also sir I’m mentioning all the problems after the new update please check it one by one.
1- if Version is empty so it is not showing empty it is showing [Version]
2- PAckage Size is not working for those files which I imported from my sever through Bulk import feature.
3- if downloads Count=0 then it is showing the [download_count] text.
4- if view count=0 then it is showing the [view_count] text.
5- the other big problem is that I am using custom code from wpdm_all_package which you created for me. with that Responsive table I am using the Page_url instead of the download link. when the user click on the download button it is opening package page in new tab. so in this update when I am replacing that wpdm-all-downloads.php code. then the table goes hide. sol please set the new update table for me according to my old wpdm-all-downloads.php file. when the user clicks on the download button it shall open the package URL in a new tab.
also, that new update responsive table has no scroll to top feature. when user change the page the table shall go to the top

I made more tests and it only gets the download link if the product is free. If the product has a price and goes through the order details then I get the message.
Invalid Download link.
Hello Humayon. It was working perfect before v6.0 As a matter of fact I tried other download options even from the server and I am getting the same message no matter which method I use.
I get the Invalid download link.
I already had to provide one customer a direct link to get his package.
Thanks.

Hello @Jerry_Haugen,
Hope you are well. Do want to customize the link template or the package shortcode you are using on the page? you can create your own link-template via the Downloads > Templates
section and as I image attached.

For template tags, you can visit this doc, https://www.wpdownloadmanager.com/doc/templates/template-tags/
And for the add-to-cart option, are you using this add-on, https://www.wpdownloadmanager.com/download/wpdm-file-cart/, please let me know and please ask if you have any query
Thank you and regards
Hi,
I created a package to download from a specific page using the package link.
Is it possible that the system does not create archive pages: /download-category/mocktails/ and /download/pdf-cahier-mocktails/, etc…
Because they are referenced by Google and I don’t want this.
Regards
Thank you for that. I think the plugin is great, and worked well in my situation there are some issues that could be resolved like sometimes if you enable the email lock for the package some of the users receive an email with an invalid download link not happen all the time but is frustrating, this is just the issue I had. I will probably be subscribing again in a few month’s time. Had to cancel it for time being due to personal circumstances, but will be back soon 🙂
Thank you for your help.
Sorry it transforme my code 😀
i have this code: <a href="[download_url]" class="btn btn-primary" target="_blank">[link_label]</a>
so the download opens in a new tab.
now i need that the single downloads also opens in a new tap with the [file_list] shortcode
Hi @trikdis,
Please use this Pastebin code,
https://pastebin.com/4bAmZ6WA
I have added the below lines downloads/tpls/wpdm-all-downloads.php
file in line number 295
$data['download_link'] = "<a target='_blank' class='btn btn-primary' href='".get_permalink($data['ID'])."'>"."Download"."</a>";
$download_link = $data['download_link'];
commenting out this line
// $data['download_link'] = \WPDM\Package::downloadLink($data['ID'], 0, array('template_type' ► 'link'));
I hope it should open a new tab for the related packages
and for making back up the file for the next update, please follow this doc, https://www.wpdownloadmanager.com/doc/template-files/
thank you and regards
Hi @gmop-unite-com,
Hope you are well. I have got access from your link to the wp-admin panel. But I can’t able to find the Downloads
menu panel and also the Plugins
menu panel with that role. Can you please check that?
Thank you and regards

Hello,
i use this code from you, that opens the downloads in a new tab.
[link_label]
so how can i change that to the file_list?
Hello @wario,
Sorry to hear about the issue.
By enabling the single file download option. In a package, you can add multiple files ( as many as you want ), at from front-end when a user downloads this package, they will get a zip file containing all attached files, but if you enable Single File Download, a user also will be able to download any single file from attached files( Demo ), but when you enable individual file download option, you also need to use [file_list]
or [file_list_extended]
tag with your link or page template to show the file list with a download button at front-end, and templates are explained here.

Please let me know if the problem persists.
Thanks
Hello, I have a problem that I can’t make the download open in a new window or tab. I’m using wpdm_all_packages shortcode.
Also, I’m using bootstrap 4
and tried to add code metioned from other forum topic thread which is similar to mine. I added into downloads/tpls/wpdm-all-downloads.php
this line: $data['download_link'] = "<a target='_blank' class='btn btn-primary' href='".get_permalink($data['ID'])."'>"."Download"."</a>";
but nothing happens.
Hi guys – just putting together a “Digital Asset Library” using your plugin for a client. I’m a bit lost as to which add-on I need to enable multiple packages to be downloaded at once?.
I’m using a file link template on the pages as the customer doesn’t want a “full information pages” for the items – and so I want to add in a “add to cart/collection” button to the link template to enable the user to select a number of items before “downloading” in one go.
Is this possible, and in which case what add-ons do I need to make this happen?
Many thx
Hello @seblito,
You are using the free version of WPDM. That is the reason there is no link template option.
If you use the premium version of wpdm, you would see like this:

There is available edit and clone menu for your templates in PRO, however, you can also edit the templates PHP file from plugins > download-manager > tpls
folder and follow this doc too, https://www.wpdownloadmanager.com/doc/template-files/
However, you can check the difference between free and paid wpdm here.
Thanks
Hello @bpw1133,
I am sorry that Frontend author does not have the ability to create tag option yet. Author have to select the admin created tags and categories in the frontend.
However if you need this feature, You can contact our customization team through the email address which is given below.
customize@wpdownloadmanager.com
or through this link.
With Best Regards
