In my case download link is always 0, it look like not working at all wen using package shortcode.
Only works in package page, but I am not using that page.
Hi Nayeem,
The shortcode you suggested would require me to make dozens of pages using that shortcode and filter down to the specific categories I am looking for. In my original link https://www.waukbearing.com/resources/download-center/ you can see we are using one main directory page. So your suggestion will not work.
Is it possible to add the “operator (string) ► ‘IN’, ‘AND’” or something similar to the wpdm_archive_filter shortcode? Another option would be to use the wpdm-archive shortcode, which is what I was using before the newest update and the addition of the new wpdm_archive_filter shortcode.
Hello all,
There was an update to the plugin again, so I attempted to update it on the WordPress plugin page. It failed again (as it always does). The error said “The Update failed…the package could not be installed.” After that, the WPDM Directory Add-On stopped working and now our shortcake doesn’t work.
So, I downloaded the most recent versions of both plugins: Download Manager and WPDM – Archive Page. I uploaded them and activated them and now they appear to be activated and working. However, our shortcode doesn’t work (the raw shortcode just shows up directly on the page) and that area of our website is completely broken…again.
Here is the shortcode that we are using:
[wpdm-archive cat_view=”extended” button_style=”default” showcount=0 link_template=”5c830ecaed300″ items_per_page=”30″ order_by=”date” order=”desc” cols=1]
Can you let me know what I am doing wrong? Updating the plugin never works when I do it through the WordPress Plugins page (this is like the 4th time I have gone through this). Then when I upload the new version, it breaks the Archive Page shortcode.
It seems like there’s something wrong with how I am working.
Thanks,
Reeb

Hey Dear Friends.
I am using wpdm pro, i want to hide or redirect my direct download link from user, i mean when someone copy my Download link, so it’s shall copy the package link, not the exact Download link.
I found this Feature in link template” Card ” but it’s not working for file list option, i mean for multiple files package.
Sorry for My bad English, hope you will understand what I’m trying to say.
Because owner of other Websites are copy paste my direct Download links to their post/Website.
So i want to protect my links from copy.
Hello dear forum Members.
I’m a Wpdm pro Users, i have downloadable files in different folders in my cpanel.
But I can’t attach any of them by using the DIR option or Server Option.
Currently I’m creating Download link and adding my files through direct download link.
So please help me how i can attach my files from cpanel to wpdm package.
Hi – none of the link templates works in my installation. No matter which is selected, just text appears against the standard download button. The link templates do not preview either, instead just showing the site home page. I’ve also tried a default theme and that does not solve it.
I set the “Category Page Template” to “use link template”
I even set the “who can have access to packages under this category” to “administrator” only
I view the files page incognito view and still see all the files (when I click to download it tells me to login to download)
You can review my settings using the same credentials above
When you are using js table, sorting depend on the columns used to show the table, so, as you want to sort the table by publish date, I have configured the shortcode like this:
[wpdm-all-packages cols="title,file_count,download_count|categories|publish_date|download_link" colheads="Title|Categories|Publish Date|Download::155px" categories="immas,maps,meeting-document,paper,report,statement,practical-information," items_per_page=30 jstable=1 orderby="publish_date" order="DESC"]
And it is working fine now.
I am using always the same shortcode at several pages:
<!– wp:download-manager/category {“cats”:”alisia-imagens-produtos”,”toolbar”:”0″,”cols”:”4″,”template”:”link-template-semi-ext.php”} /–>

For disabling the file size and download count indicators, you can customize related page/link templates according to your requirements, thus you shall get your desired view,
thanks
hi,
do you want to attach external link like digital ocean account files for your package download, if the files are shareable, you can attach those by Insert URL option, please let me know if I get you
thanks
If it is your page template, then you can remove it by customizing the related template from Downloads > Templates also you can remove it by editing related PHP file from plugins > download-manager > tpls > link-templates/page-templates
thanks

hello,
For showing PDF thumbnail in the link template, you have to use [pdf_thumb_WxH] template tag in your link-template, for more template tag, you can see the doc here, https://www.wpdownloadmanager.com/doc/templates/template-tags/
thanks

thanks

I have seen that it is not linked properly for download, can you put the full path with protocol link in the package_dir, then please let us know,
thanks
Great – found it – and thanks again!
Actually I had seen this setting before, but I obviously misinterpreted the following explanation:
“Check this option if you want to mask/unmask file download link. If you unmask download link, bots will be able the find any public download link easily.”
I saw that the option was set to “Mask”, and from that explanation I concluded that this is kind of a protection against bots. I did not realize that it is also a protection against users!
Anyway, the download page itself is not public anyway, but only for registered users, so your proposed setting is definitely correct.
Kind regards, Cornelis
Hi,
For #1, #1.a,
you can follow the link below documentation,
Template Files
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
For #1.b please share your file URL,
For #2, you can update your description page of related file,
thanks
Thanks.
please check now i have also adjusted some settings and also your link-template PHP file, http://muskratmedia.com/chiefsofontario.com/downloads/, let me know if it works for you
thanks
