Hey @arturmac,
Please follow this for the bulk import.
However, for bulk edit packages you can use the CSV import by following the above-mentioned link but for bulk deletion, you can use the native WP feature.
Also, you can use the below add-on for the default template.
WPDM Default Values
And if you found my support helpful, could you leave your valuable review here?

After updating wpdm pro to latest version 5.4.1 and dropbox explorer addon to latest version 1.4.6.
it’s no longer showing previews of the files. Instead it’s showing the png placeholder.
Files are still downloadable.
We’ve already tried creating a new dropbox app and re-linking it but it didn’t help.
How do we show previews of files again?

Hi @tonystark,
In the free version in order to change the page link title colour please follow this screencast.
More details can be found in the docs.
However, with the Pro version of WPDM, you can easily edit a template file. Have a look at this.
Let me know if you need further assistance regarding this matter.
Thanks.
Hello,
Please use this shortcode instead of the mentioned to get package details.
[wpdm_all_packages categories="DACC Forms" items_per_page="20" jstable=1 order_by="field_name" order="ASC/DESC" cols="page_link,package_size,download_count|download_link" colheads="Title|Download"]
You can get more parameters here.
I have changed the title into page_link, clicking which will fetch the package details too.
Let me know if it solves your issue.
Thanks
Hello,
You can check this to get details about styling
If this doesn’t solve the title issue, you have to use custom css. You can share the related link, then I would be able to provide custom css which will work.
Thanks
Apologies that I’m a newbie with this. I’m using a very basic function of DMF making files available to our owners.
A while back, something I did removed the link from the file title to the Details page. I can no longer get the details page to show up for any file list on any page. I was able to change the download button to display PDF, which is fine, but would like owners to be able to get details on file before downloading via Details page.
Alternately, be able to put a one liner from details under the file title (like file size, download count).
In a perfect world, I’d have the one liner under title, title link to display PDF, and Download button to d/l file.
Any help is appreciated.

Hello team,
How I will add custom column through ACF plugin on this page
https://delhi.oh.us/test-download-manager/
We need three URL links.
agenda, minutes and video links
Looking forward…
I have created a new template and changed the [page_url] link to [download_url] on the Title but it is still taking users to the Details page which we don’t want. The Download button works and takes them straight to the download but clicking the title takes them to the details. We have had this working correctly before, has there been an update which has changed this?
Are you talking about this option as I image attached,

For this section, you may check this doc, https://www.wpdownloadmanager.com/doc/subscribers/
It also saves Google Connect Lock, LinkedIn Share Lock users as well
thanks
Hi Shahjada,
Thanks for your response. Got it. One download button working fine and other download button not working – Screenshot link – https://prnt.sc/13hb150

max-width: 100%;
margin-bottom: 20px;
}
.btn-group.d-flex .btn-secondary {
border-radius: 6px !important;
margin-right: 8px !important;
}
a.btn.btn-secondary {

Hi,
I have the WP Download Manager Pro and wanted to know how I can accomplish the following:
1. How can I include a custom field? For example, include a field named File Types, where I can manually enter the file types included in the zip file.
2. Is there a way to include a space below the download button for an image, message, or even an ad? See links below for screenshot and live link.

Thank you.
Now everything is working fine, the zip was created because you have attached a dir path from Browse dir option as I image attached,

And for open a new tab, 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 the 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.
Thanks.
Hello Nayeem,
I have searched and read a few posts about this issue. I am just adding a single pdf and when I click the link in my sidebar anything I’ve tried displays a download button and it is forcing the open or save as .zip file. I have checked the open in browser (setting) and played with templates. I just want to be able to upload as various users to a few categories pdf files mostly and I want a sidebar widget to open them in a browser. Its just not doing that.
thanks,

Hi,
When you have a multi-file package, and a user downloads the package, as you know it creates a zip from the attached files/attached PDF files and downloads it. if you are trying to disable/remove the zip download button, you may need to customize the related page/link template by removing the main download button and keep the single file download buttons. or you can also use other pre-made links/page templates
thanks
Hello,
Just started using download manager. I have only uploaded a couple of files so far but I want to be able to upload a pdf file and display a link to download a pdf file NOT a zip file. How do I disable the plugin converting all my uploaded files to a zip files?
Sincerely,
Paul

@admin Shahjada – I ended up buying a new license as the other one will expire in a few months anyways, gives me plenty of time to get what I want built. Plus I wanted to try a few other plugins so I purchased the all access pass. I made another post already as the memberships download link says “FILE NOT FOUND” – Also looking for support chat? which is another of the main reasons I purchased the all access pass.
Am trying to use the HOVER CARD #2 but the feature image does not show up properly.
I put the exact same image on your demo site: https://demo.wpdownloadmanager.com/wpdmpro/ready-to-use-templates/
Please see private reply below for direct link to my site.
Hi,
I found direct file download syntax as following:
http://your-site/wpdmdl=pacakge-id&ind=file-index
Can anyone advise please what the part “ind=file-index” is for? and what sort of problems it may cause if I use the link without it, I mean using the link only like:
http://your-site/wpdmdl=pacakge-id
Thank you.
@inbloomdigital, sorry for the confusion, probably the last reply was not elaborate enough. You may keep using it in your dev site for 15 days, however, even if you activate/use the license in your dev site, it is not a problem, you can unlink the dev site from your order details page here and use the license key in your production site when you move your site to the production server.
Please check the following doc to understand how to unlink a license to use it with a new site when you move WPDM PRO there:
License
For direct download link use the additional parameter download_link=1 in [wpdm_tree] shortcode. i hope it will work then
thanks
Hello,
When you use “All download table” you notice that this plugin has some problems:
1- When we add for example, 3 categories (Cat2, Cat 1,Cat3). The names of these categories must be in alphabetical order in the categories Combo Box.
2- If you choose for example “Cat1” then “Apply filter” the results on the first page are correct, but when you click on the “Next” button, you will get incorrect results, I mean that the second page contains all categories, not just the first category(Cat1).
I think when you developer that will give more professionalism to WDM. So I hope to develop these things.
