ok wait then I didn’t understand. I don’t want to always create a new product with each new version, it’s not good for seo, because it would always change the permalink, post id etc. What I want to understand is, what happens when a buyer has a subscription and it expires after 1 month? If the buyer does not renew, will he be able to continue downloading the previous downloads? I want to insert a subscription where the subscriber can download everything from the catalog with a limit of 3 downloads per day, but if he has an expired subscription, he must not have access to the downloads already made. This thing is very easy to do with woocommerce, why can’t it be done with your plugin? I bought the special pack just for a change, I wanted to do everything with your pro plugin and extensions, but from what I am understanding I will never be able to do what I need. It doesn’t make sense that a user can continue to download files even if he has an expired subscription.
In this page, if you are using shortcode and there is a field or parameter called link-template
, you may customize the link template and add info as your requirements. you shall find template tags here, https://www.wpdownloadmanager.com/doc/templates/template-tags/

Hello,
I have one file, attached to multiple packages. Is it somehow possible to update this file (the file itself and version number) for all this packages at once? Or do I really need to open all packages one by one and update the file manually per package?
If this is not possible; is it possible to show all the attached files in the admin list for a package under ‘Downloads’ -> ‘All packages’?
This plugin nulled my shopping cart and messenger links in header
Hi,
Again with the same infamous problem of wpdm gutenburg blocks.
this is the last time i post about this, i gave temporally wp-admin link many times but no clear answer from devs.
setup:
wordpress download manager pro 5.3.3
the problem:
since introducing version 2.0 of wpdm gutenburg blocks (since 09/2020) i have a problem after updating the addon from 1.3.9 to 2.X.
the problem in that every package added to a post by gutenburg block 1.3.9 is showing “select a package!” after updating to 2.X of the addon
where it happen:
it happen only in backend, packages in frontend are showing normally.
why i need to update:
usually i update all my plugins to last version for security and performance purposes.
what i need from devs
A clear answer about this problem and if it will be fixed or never.
(screenshots are added bellow)
Thank you
A few questions:
1) I know you have a shopping cart and payment system available but we need to charge our members different amounts (based on their credentials) for the same one-year membership. WooCommerce has a plugin called “Name Your Price” that allows for this. Do you have a plugin that is similar?
2) If not, can the Download Manager be set up independently of any membership fees we collect via WooCommerce? In other words, can I set up the software to manage free downloads by members and then, separately, add a paywall using WooCommerce to protect the section where the download links are?
Let me know; thanks.
Sunil
The plugin was downloaded from your provided link. I don’t know why those two features are not as in the image attached by you. I also tried to reinstall the module but I didn’t get those features.

Hello,
We are using WordPress version 5.5.3
Our Download Manager add-on is at version 5.2.4
We are using the following Page Template for a package:
<div class=”thumbnail”>
<div class=”media”>
[icon]
<div class=”media-body”>
[page_link]<br />
Released: [create_date]<br />
Updated: [update_date]<br />
Downloads: [download_count]<br />
[download_link]
</div>
</div>
</div>
The download link looks like this:
https://enea-my.sharepoint.com/:i:/g/personal/mitu_enea_se/EecFQ1jNfzpNhqccLJPFeXoByt17m5BBmIPwcq7e1Lp9Ug?e=j4QRZR
and clicking on it does NOTHING.
While using an older version of the WPDM, the download link looked like this, and the download worked:
https://enea-my.sharepoint.com/:i:/g/personal/mitu_enea_se/Ea3uhf2237ZEijRFMw0JyxgBMZMW2GV-o3x6CuxaHkCKoA?e=UcqRL8
We noticed that when using the [file_list] along with Single File Download attribute Enabled, the Download link/button looks OK and it works.
How can we make the download link work again?
Thank you,
Mihai Nitu
If you are using download limit add-on, you may keep value 1 for limiting download once and give a certain period of time. or if you want to let never download any package you may remove the download link for a specific package. without the download link or limiting never to download, I think same. i hope it can help you.
thanks

We are getting an issue with the WP Download Manager Pro plugin.
We have set up the packages and files to download on the page here:
https://omegatmm.com/download/public
It’s showing a list of all the files that can be downloaded. The files should be displayed in a pop-up when clicking on the Download button.
However, sometimes it works and sometimes we can’t see the files in the pop-up.
Also, we have used a dropbox addon for this.
Can you please let us know how to fix this issue?
you have to use [categories]
, [tags]
in you link/page templates from plugins\download-manager\tpls\page-templates|link-templates
PHP file file, you can back-up your files following this doc, https://www.wpdownloadmanager.com/doc/template-files/
and for file size clearing the package size option under package settings should reset the data after the package is updated, please check
thanks
Hi,
Made a download item, and linked the file from my google drive. When I am testing that I get an error.
After payment is successful I get this message:
You do not have permission to download this file
can you help with this?
Indeed, but when i check this box, a submitted form results only in a sent email – nothing happens after filling out the form but a “Thank you for your message. It has been sent.” confirmation message. It would be great if I could also have the link directly on the page?
(the form was created with the [download-link-extended])
If you are using the form-lock add-on, there should have an option Email Download Link from Enable Form Lock lock options, please check
thanks
Why do you write in other support threads, that i need PRO to open links in a new tab?
I could have done that with the free version too. I bought pro so I do not have to deal with php. I am not an software engineer! And also I do not want to have to change the php-files
e.g. here it sounds like i just need to add sth to the shortcode:
Open in a new tab/window
I use public downloads and a custom link template

by default, you are using link-template-default.php
for link template and page-template-default.php
for the page template. As documentation, you have to copy the file in the theme directory naming a folder called download-manager, then paste it in tpls>page-templates
for page template or tpls>link-templates
for link template. And you have to replace [download_link]
with <a href="[download_url]" class="btn btn-primary" target="_blank">[link_label]</a>
in related PHP file. and for the back up the file, you may follow the link below documentation, https://www.wpdownloadmanager.com/doc/template-files/
Thanks.
Hi.
I need the downloads to open in a new tab. I purchased the PRO version therefor.
But I cant’t get it to work anyways. I cloned an existing Page template and tried to add link_target=_blank in various ways and positions.
Please tell me exactly where and how i need to add it in the code below to make it work!
<li class=”list-group-item d-flex justify-content-between align-items-center”>
[download_link_extended]
It is highly unprofessional in web standards to open downloads in the same window. So I really do not understand why it is so complicated! I get you want people to buy PRO, fine but then make it easily accesible for those at least!
