In reply to: How To Link To A Download *Securely*?
Nayeem,
Can you send me an example of how the feature constructs the link? Does it just link to the download page or the download directly?

Nayeem,
Is that ‘Email Download Link’ a pro feature? It doesn’t appear on my installation with Download Manager v3.2.32.

Nayeem,
I’m sorry, I have been unclear. I am not looking to protect files, I am looking for a better solution to creating a link to a download package. Is there any chance we could meet? I don’t feel as if I am able to get my message across in text.
David.
Dear WP Download Manager
WordPress: 5.8.2
WPDM: 3.2.32
PHP 7.4I am trying to create my own Link Template. I click on Clone and I get the following error message:
Warning: include(/homepages/3/d72334695/htdocs/ddics/wp-content/plugins/download-manager/src/Admin/views/templates/template-editor.php): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /homepages/3/d72334695/htdocs/ddics/wp-content/plugins/download-manager/src/Admin/Menu/Templates.php on line 66
Warning: include(): Failed opening ‘/homepages/3/d72334695/htdocs/ddics/wp-content/plugins/download-manager/src/Admin/views/templates/template-editor.php’ for inclusion (include_path=’.:/usr/lib/php7.4′) in /homepages/3/d72334695/htdocs/ddics/wp-content/plugins/download-manager/src/Admin/Menu/Templates.php on line 66
Need less to say, it doesn’t create a Clone.
I have disable all plugin except WPDM.
Also doesn’t work under PHP8.0.
Can you advise?
Best regards,
Michael

Neyeem,
OK, I understand. This is not related to my query. Once again, you are focussing on the webpage, instead of the direct download link. I do not want my visitors to visit a web page, I want to provide a link that takes them directly to the download.
Take option 4 above. When the receiver clicks the link (e.g. from an email):
– If they are already logged into the website, the PDF download opens in the browser.
– If they are NOT already logged into the website, they are taken to the login page and after they login, the PDF download opens in the browser.At no point does the receiver visit a web page (except the login page).
Does that now make sense?
The issue I am finding is that I have to hand-craft that URL for every single download. I am trying to find a better solution.
If this is still not understood, could we get on a shared-screen somehow?
David.

Hello David,
I want to clarify your claim point no: 2,
Use the package download link e.g. <website>/download/<package_title>/?wpdmdl=<package_id>. Secure but if user not already logged in, results in permission-denied.txt
please check from the logout browser or incognito mode browser, you shall find the login option as I image attached,
and please also use the Email Lock option, thus all features will work properly. please check and let me know
Thank you and regards
In reply to: How can I auto-update the file I upload?
Hello Tanvir,
Thanks for your help but I need your help still.
How can I use a button template and add my custom download link text.
Also for the initial template I created, how can I list the files that shows to just the newest files and limit it to just 14 files.
Right now it is showing all the files in the file directory, but I need it limited to 14.
Thank You

Nayeem,
Could you help me to understand the relevance of that button/feature to creating a link to a download package? Does that button create a link?

LINKHello @brother-bell,
Greetings and Welcome.
Your license should be transferable and yes the procedure mentioned in the 2nd link is applicable for the 2021 version.
Simply just follow the steps properly mentioned in the below link and I hope you will be able to transfer the license easily.
If you still facing any problem then let us know about it and we will assist you properly.
Regards
Happy Holidays WPDM Team,
I’m writing to gain confirmation on the correct process to migrate / transfer my Pro license to a new domain. My current site and business effort is closing down and I’m going to restart a new effort. What is the process to request key-license transfer or the How-To guide on doing it myself?
The links below mention transfer of licenses. In one, it is the customer support team who does it. In the other it tries to show how-to steps but unsure if it applies in 2021 version. Also I’m uncertain whether my license is transferable in the first place. Assistance is welcome.

Hello David,
If you want to work with package shortcode, you can make a workaround with link-template, you can make link-template with the below code for download,
<a href="[download_url]" class="btn btn-primary" target=_blank>[link_label]</a>Thus it will work for restricted role subscriber only, please let me know if it helps you
Thank you and regards

Nayeem,
Thank you for your response. Respectfully, you’ve missed an important aspect of my query: “I don’t want to link to a page, I want to link directly to the download”. In order to see the image above, the visitor would have first needed to browse to the package page. This works fine but doesn’t meet my requirements.
Make sense?

Hello David,
Hope you are well. I think method #2 will work fine for Link To A Download Securely. If you restrict certain packages with the
Allow Accessoption for subscriber role, without this role other users will get this message as I image attached
please check and let me know
Thank you and regards
I am trying to link directly to a download (PDF document) securely. Only members of my WordPress website (Subscriber role) should be able to download. Obvious answer is to create a page with the appropriately configured wpdm shortcode and restrict package access to Subscriber role. But I don’t want to link to a page, I want to link directly to the download. I’ve identified the following methods:
- Link to the actual file e.g. <website>/wp-content/uploads. Very insecure. No download stats.
- Use the package download link e.g. <website>/download/<package_title>/?wpdmdl=<package_id>. Secure but if user not already logged in, results in permission-denied.txt
- Use the Master Download URL e.g. <website>/download/<package_title>/?wpdmdl=<package_id>&masterkey=<package_key>. Very insecure. Download stats reported as ‘Guest’
- Manually create the download link e.g. <website>/wp-login.php?redirect_to=/download/<package_title>/?wpdmdl=<package_id>. Secure with download stats.
Only Option 4 meets my requirements (secure, direct link) but this is a faff every time I want to distribute a download link.
Is there another, preferably better, way?

wp-content/themes/oceanwp-child/download-manager/link-templates/your-link-template.phpAnd For #5, you may uncheck the Enable email verification on signup from Frontend Access Settings, please check and let me know

Hi @Nayeem Riddhi,
I’m using the
link-template-calltoaction3.phpwith pop-up modal with accept T&C and reCAPTCHA.I’ve made a copy of the link template to my child theme
wp-content/themes/oceanwp-child/download-manager/link-template-calltoaction3.phpHowever, this doesn’t edit the popup modal that redirects after completing reCAPTCHA that’s the port I want to open in a new tab/window after completing the captcha.5. I think we might’ve mixed up. I’m not trying to disable registration completely – just the email notification WPDownloadManager sends to admin after someone has signed up.
Cheers.
