Hi,
Your requirements have been adjusted,
#1, For changing the download link and label
I have adjusted it from download-manger\tpls\wpdm-dashboard.php
putting the below code in the bottom part,
<a class="udb-item replace" href="https://www.diamondcontrols.co.uk/document-library"><i class="fas fa-arrow-down color-purple mr-3"></i>Document Library</a>
<script type="text/javascript">
jQuery('div#udm-user a.udb-item:nth-child(2)').replaceWith(jQuery('.replace'));
</script>
For #2, download the file directly from the Download History list,
I have adjusted it from
download-manager\tpls\user-dashboard\download-history.php
in line number 21
replacing,
\WPDM\Package::getDownloadURL($stat->pid);
please check.
Thanks.
Hi there,
I’m using [thumb] in a [wpdm_category] shortcode, but the file is not found.
Link generated by the WPDM link template:
/download/”download-title”/?wpdmdl=3791&refresh=5eb2e97918d021588783481
Direct media link:
/wp-content/uploads/2020/05/”filename”.jpg
Is there a way to get this working?
Thanks!
Linsey
Hi!
I am building a grid of downloads using a featured image and title / download link.
My shortcode is…
[wpdm_category id="brochures" title="Brochures & Flooring Guides" template="5eb2d25e265b5" order_by="title" order="asc" cols=3 colspad=2 colsphone=1 download_link=1]
My custom template is…
<div class="knowledge-base-download"><a href="[download_url]">[thumb_200x200]
<b><a href="[download_url]" class="knowledge-base-download-heading" style="text-decoration: none;">[title]</b></div>
Two problems…
The first element after the wpdm_category shortcode is affected by this code. It looks like it’s throwing everything into a strange column layout, so I’m guessing it’s something to do with the columns.
Second, less critical problem, is that the title doesn’t appear. Any obvious issues? I don’t mind adding this manually, but while I’m here 🙂
Any ideas or fixes would be massively appreciated.
Thanks so much in advance!

The Form Lock is not working correctly. Once a user fills out a Contact Form 7, any other download link now shows the Message “Your Download Link is now ready” instead of showing the form again??
I fixed the missing downloads by editing the database urls.
Not being able to disable the standard templates is not so bad but my custom css for the link template still doesn’t seem to show up.
Hi,
Can you use <a href="[download_url]" class="btn btn-primary" target="_blank">[link_label]</a>
instead of [download_link]
in your link template? i hope it may help you.
Thanks.
Hi Nayeem! Thanks for your super fast response! 🙂
I suppose that this wpdm_direct_link code should be used instead my [download_link] parameter on link template, isn´t it?
[wpdm_direct_link id="Package ID" target="_blank" label="Download Me!" class="css class names" eid="element-id"]
But, in this case, what should i put on “id” parameter? I want to show a file directory as you can see on my private link.
[wpdm_category id="liga-golf," cols="1" toolbar=0 item_per_page=10 template="5ea99dbc8be8b"]
This is the code that i´m using to show my template on that test page. There is any way to use direct downloads with “wpdm_category” code?
On another project, i used your plugin and it let me do that using a “wpdm-all-packages” code like that:
[wpdm-all-packages items_per_page="20" categories="golf-documentos" jstable=1 order_by="field_name" order="ASC/DESC" cols="title|download_link" colheads="Título|Descarga"]
But i have no way to replicate it now. On that project i was using an older an free version of your plugin. Right now i´m using your Pro latest version.
As you can see, i have a little mess, this is the first time with your pro version, i hope to solve it soon 🙂
Thanks again!
Hi!
Im creating an email-locked download link for a pdf.
I recieve the mail with the link but when I click the link in the email I get to a page with a red button that says “-Invalid download link-“.
Please help as this is urgent.
Hi,
Added [download_link_extended] to the template and the Form Lock seems to now work FYI
The license still says invalid for Download Manager Pro v5.0 on cromsource.com though….
i have read that many times,
On the nav bar where you have a site logo and navigation menu you sometimes have a login/signup button. how can that button text change when a user succesfully logins in from login and sign up to Dashboard and carry the link.. look at
example:
Best File / Document Management & Digital eCommerce Plugin for WordPress
Nav bar > button = login/register button
—successful Login—
Nav bar > button = Dashboard area
From the shortcode,
[wpdm-archive button_style="default" link_template="link-template-panel" items_per_page="10" category="category-slug" order_by="field-name" order="asc or desc" login=1]
you can create a custom link template and include a template tag called [file_list]
, it will enable you to download the single file. and you can refer to the link-template within the shortcode.
I hope it may help you.
Thanks.
Exactly how do we get our site to look like the demos? (https://themes.wpdownloadmanager.com/verse/) I just want it to look like that. I can take it from there. I’m close to getting it to work, but it has many missing items. Import says it couldn’t import about 10 items, and the links are from like 2013, so I assume it’s been changed. I’m new to wordpress, so not sure where to go from here. It doesn’t say I have to purchase any package, but not 100% sure.
Thank you.

I dont get the nice options under settings. My version is old style with underlined links. Clicking on them dosnt work. One example: When I click User Interface – nothing happens. Im still on the same “old” page. I have a paid for “Download Manager Pro v5.0”
Hi,
Do you want to get the real path like a flat path? If you unmask download link, bots will be able the find any public download link easily. and for the getting flat path, you can activate flat download URL beta, it may not work properly or work properly because it is running in the testing purpose. let me know.
Thanks.
Hi,
Are you trying to do it one page, like loop through all packages, and also want to create a custom dynamic link for download link label? please let me know.
Thanks.

I’m linking in the packages expecting to start a download but it re-directs me to a page named after the package I created every time?
I’m simply posting [wpdm_package id='1684'] into the table i want the download clickable from and instead the download button takes you to a page named after the download package?

Hi,
For #option1, please your related page link and site URL
For #option2, Short-code for generating tree view of all packages and categories:
[wpdm_tree]
