Hi Nayeem,
Thanks for the fast response, but this isn’t quite what I’m looking for. Here’s the use case:
Product A is sold on another vendor site. That site has its own login, payment gateway, and checkout process. Product A cannot be downloaded or purchased from my site.
However, I’d like to create a page on my site for Product A using WPDM. This way, Product A is included in my site’s product catalog, with the same look and feel as other products on my site. But when a visitor goes to my Product A page, the “Buy Now” button links to the Product A page on the 3rd-party site, and *that’s* where they make their purchase and download.
Is this possible?
Thanks,
-Erin

That tag shows a broken link although I have added two images to “additional previews”.

This page https://rogergreen.org.uk/smart-work/download/smart-work-handbook/ redirecting to https://rogergreen.org.uk/smart-work/ this, however, if you want to show the preview of the download page for page/post type, you may use package shortcode and your customized link template in that package. let me know if it helps you
Thanks…

Where do you want to link? page or package, will be they are next/previous package link type or other else, you can elaborate your query
and for #2, there are template tags available, like [preview], [thumb_WxH],
you shall find them here, https://www.wpdownloadmanager.com/doc/templates/template-tags/
Hi,
I assume you mean in the WP dashboard? If I got to Downloads>Templates I see Link Templates, Page Templates and Email Templates non of which have author-dashboard.php
You can do that with the current download button by enabling “Open in browser” option from wpdm settings.
However, linking it with the title will require code customization.
Anyhow, we shall add an option to preview pdf by clicking the file list item, with the next update of our pdf viewer add-on.

We have the main downloads pages hidden in the background. Are you able to try from the front end link please – https://frovi.co.uk/product/new-designs/flord/
Neither are working for us. We are getting a network error now which is different to the original problem of the extraction now.
Thank you for the response, but it didn’t help.
please check the following link for example:
https://alameensoft.com/en/download/amn8-17-486-876/
down in the Download Links section, a list of files is available, while the “Download” button is not showing because the user has to login or the user doesn’t have permission to download this.
I need to tell the user that by disabling this section or let the user know that he don’t have permission.
I can’t get you, do you want whole block portion will be linked as a download package or linked to the package URL? let me know.
Thanks.
They shouldn’t be lost. If you are creating page/link-templates through this process, https://www.wpdownloadmanager.com/doc/template-files/, they will remain in your theme. Otherwise, if you are creating them from Templates panel they should remain there. please, give your temporary wp-admin login details in a private reply for checking the issue.
Thanks.

I have had two issues with the latest version of WPDM. When I tried to update to V5.2.3 automatically I got an update error from WordPress complaining about the zip file. So I downloaded the zip file manually from your website and installed it manually. It seemed to work, but…
For the two latest files I have uploaded to our website after upgrading to 5.2.3 I get the message:
This site can’t be reached
The webpage at https://acfconsultants.com/download/gsccd/?wpdmdl=33569&_wpdmkey=5f71931115258 might be temporarily down or it may have moved permanently to a new web address.
ERR_UNSAFE_REDIRECT
I noted that the wpdmkey in the above URL is different from the master key in the WPDM editor. If I substitute the Master Key for the above URL, I then get:
— Invalid download link —
Older files uploaded with the previous version of WPDM still work fine.

Hi,
WPDM doesn’t have a way to link the checkbox by default, but you can enable double opt-in, however, if you want to link it with the consent checkbox, it will require some code customization. ( https://www.wpdownloadmanager.com/download/custom-upgrade-service/ )
That is not an issue with the WPDM pro, probably with your theme or any custom function related to your theme, by default when the archive page is enabled in wpdm settings, it will show in the breadcrumb. Ex: https://themes.wpdownloadmanager.com/attire/download/email-download-link/
This is not linked to an add-on but to the general way to let clients to subscribe to newsletter. I’m using mailchimp (so the mailchimp add-on), but this is valuable information for any e-mail management add-on…
The way WPDM works the website owner decides to subscribe all customers or no one by default. I decide this in the settings :

With this way of doing things, the customer cannot choose to be subscribed. There is no checkbox that he can check to say he wants the newsletter or not.
This is against GDPR law in Europe.
To be GDPR compliant, there should be a checkbox that the customer can check / uncheck during the checkout process.
Like in this example :

If the customer cannot choose whether he wants to get the newsletter, it’s not GDPR compliant and I risk getting fined for it…
This is just for regular paid downloads in my case. Of course, this is not for email locked downloads, as the client is aware that he has to subscribe in order to get the download.
Hope it’s easier to understand this way.
The issue is that the next and previous scripts aren’t in the same download category. The links you’re clicking on are from different categories. I’d like the next and previous to work within the same download category.
