Hi,
No i am not using it, I am using mail download link.
Hi Nayeem,
I have the same issue when I’m using your provided shortcode for a responsive table to show all packages:
[wpdm_all_packages login=1 thumb=1 items_per_page="20" jstable=1 order_by="field_name" order="ASC/DESC" cols="title,file_count,download_count|categories|update_date|download_link" colheads="Title|Categories|Update Date|Download::155px"]
There ist no search search form!
Can you please help me.
Thanks
Radi
I don’t know how to send you a link to check because it wouldn’t be your account. Can you make a purchase and use the code VALENTINE21 to zero the amount? Then you’ll see the two download buttons.

WPDM post type label is Downloads
, no option to change it, but the breadcrumb plugin may have a hook to change the wording. Also, if you disable the archive page from wpdm settings, the “Downloads” archive link should hide in the breadcrumb.

At least one thing I need to do with the permalink manager pro plugin, add the /%post_id%/ to the end of the package permalink.
So how can I do it from code or functions.php? without downloading other plugins so I don’t risk having incompatibility?
Thanks again
You can change the expiration period from Admin Menu ► Downloads ► Settings ► Premium Packages ► Purchase Settings:

The user will get the temporary link.
Hi,
Can you please guide me where to set the order expiration date?
If I attached a file from my service, so will the customer have the access to the original link? And or a temporary link will be made for the downloads?
Kind regards
Habib
Download link after purchase is okay now, it was expiring immediately as the expiration period for the orders was 0, which can be controlled from wpdm premium package settings.
Download link from google drive is a public link, please use amazon s3 for expirable temporary download link:
WordPress Amazon S3 Storage Plugin

I know this is probably a very basic question, but I just want to show all downloads available (for the specified user role) on the dashboard, but only AFTER they login. I’m currently using this on my dashboard page:
[wpdm_user_dashboard]
[wpdm_all_packages login=1 thumb=1 jstable=1 order_by="title" order="ASC" cols="title|categories|update_date|download_link" colheads="Title|Categories|Updated|Download::155px"]
But the problem is that all downloads are showing under the login form. Granted the files are not downloadable…but I don’t even want them to show up.
What am I missing?
Thanks!!
Hi,
I want to secure previous files in my media folder. I added 1 file as a package in the download manager. It seems to have blocked anyone not logged in from accessing the file. I was hoping it would redirect someone to a login screen that tries to access the file directly. For example at the moment if you access https://mysite.something/wp-content/uploads/2021/02/doc.docx I end up getting this screen:
https://share.getcloudapp.com/kpu7mYBj
What is wrong? I tried setting a login screen in the frontend settings but nothing works.
Yes. Copy the descriptions, categories, tags, featured images, and everything else to the download packages. Is there an automated way to do that so that we don’t have to manually copy/paste all the content from every post? Thanks.
Another way to say it is that we would like to add a download link to every existing post – with a unique file in each post. Let me know what you think. Thanks.
Hi wanted to follow up to see if there are any solutions?
The shortcodes are not working on the latest plugin version for “WPDM – Advanced Access Control”
Someone helped us apply a patch that I had to restore to get it to display again; but latest plugin doesn’t have working shortocdes
This shortcode doesn’t work:
[wpdm_my_downloads login=1 template=”link-template-calltoaction3″ cols=”4″]

Thanks for your reply!
It’s not the form itself I’m trying to customize, it’s the page from which the user can actually download the locked package when using the link in the email.
Hi
We use download manager with form lock. In our tests, email notification is sent at the moment the form is sent.
Actually, we have the problem, that we can’t see who really did the click to download the file package. The notification mail is sent before the user (maybe) does the click on download link. So what can we do to se who not just fills out the form but really downloads the files?
Thanks and kind regards

As requested I shared the login separately and it has been a few days with no updates or reply. Let me know if these issues can be addressed/answered. I could not find answers for these in the documents or forums.
1) I have the email lock and captcha enabled. “Open in browser” is NOT checked. However, after name, email and reCaptcha, it takes me to a page where it says:
There has been a critical error on this website.
Learn more about debugging in WordPress.
If I refresh the page it loads the PDF in the browser. Let me know how I can make it simply download
2) I have “email” in “Skip Lock for Loggedin User:”. But, even when I am logged in, it is prompting for Name and email
3) In Firefox, it simply shows [wpdm_login_form] in place of the download button
The page in question is this: https://americaninstituteoftamil.org/download/
4) verifyemail is specified in the wp_reg_form, however, the user is directly logged in.
5) Currently it shows four icons – Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn and Google. I want to have only Facebook and Google and disable the other two? How do I disable these buttons? I could not see this information in the docs or the forums.

Hi there,
I am trying to achieve the below, but I am having trouble with the templates.
I want my archive page (Link template) to have a search bar and list the download categories (as per the top section of the demo site).
Then categories open to list of document downloads (page template) that will display similar to ‘featured downloads’.
All my documents are free to all visitors to download and only need to have title, version and date meta.
Is the plugin able to accommodate this?

Hi again.
I have been testing more ever since I contacted you for the first time.
Try it out with this new link: https://quickrows.com/free-download/qr_test-1/
Problem summary: intermittent error when trying to download the file. If refreshing the window it is solved.
