We’re using WordPress 5.3.2, Download Manager 5.0.3. The setting for Basic > Access Settings > When user is not allowed to download only allows us to 1) Only Block Download Link or 2) Hide Everything. We want to split that setting by category. On one category (client projects), site visitors should see no packages unless they are assigned access. On another category (projects for bidding), we want the names and descriptions of packages to be visible. Can this be done through a custom function, PHP query, or other customization?
Website is https://files.pceengineers.com/.
i’m just creating categories, categories have a link to see everything that are inside. that’s it, no pages, and d’ont want to use thoses shortcodes as they are not usable in my case.
Exemple : http://www.psxrenzukoken.com/nk2/downloads/fan-trad-e/
This is just a link to the category, not a page, so i would be glad to be able to modify the SQL request, as it seem it’s the only way for me
Thanks again
Hello,
So, you are using Email Download Link with form lock. Please let me know if I have got you.
Thanks.
Hi,
Email download link is a built-in feature of the WPDM PLugin. And the Contact form 7 is a separate plugin of another author. In that case, you can request the user to input the desired package with a required field.
Thanks.
I followed the Prettify your Download Link documentation. Install and activated the WPDM Image Button in the Download-Addon’s page. In fact have re-installed twice. A WPDM – Button Templates plugin appears on my webpress plugins page.
When I go to admin menu->Downloads-> Settings … there is not Buttons Tab.
Where are my image button settings?
Wow! And I have to do this for every download link that I’m going to put on my website. It seems like a lot of work. I bought the plug-in to simplify things. Not too happy about this solution.
I will place an upgrade request in the forum to create a template that will do this
Hello,
If you are talking about the widget of WPDM, Then you can follow this documentation, https://www.wpdownloadmanager.com/doc/template-files/ As documentation, you have to copy the file in the theme directory naming a folder called download-manager, then paste it in tpls>link-templates
for link template. And you have to replace the [page_url]
from href
replacing href="[download_url]"
from line number 8 in your link-template link-template-widget.php
. Then you will be able to download simply by clicking on the file-name.
Please let me know if it works for you.
Thanks.
We are getting spam subscribers on Download Packages. When we enable to captcha code under the form lock it creates another download button that allows the download to be accessed without the user putting in their details at all.
And another strange thing is that when we go to Settings/Updates, it shows the Form Lock as needing to be installed, you install it, it says success, then when you navigate away, then back again, it shows it needs to be installed again.
Is this a Download Manager supported forum or Public? Can we add links to our site?

Thanks for the reply, but I think you might have misunderstood my issue.
I am repeatedly clicking on the SAME download link in the SAME session and it IS NOT being counted as ONE download. Each time I repeatedly click on the same download link it is being counted as another download.
For example, I just clicked the same download button in 1 second intervals (click, click, click) and my download count just jumped from 7 to 10 downloads.
Repeated clicks on the same link and same session are not being counted as one.
Please advise.
Try 2 different downloads, then refresh the page. Don’t click on the same link multiple titles, repeated click on the same link in the same session will be counted as one.
Thanks.
Trying again as I added a url to the last post and it is held for moderation.
When users visit my membership site who are not logged in and view a download page they see the download buttons replaced with the ‘Please Log In to download’ link. Previously clicking this took visitors to the normal login page for my site. Since the last update this seems broken. The link is now a combination of the original page url with the login page url added to the end.
It should be: login url
It’s now: pageurlloginurl
This still works on the free version on my other website but not on this site with the paid version. I’ve tried changing the login page in the Download Manger settings but this seems to have no effect.
Can you help please?

Hi,
You can follow this documentation for creating a new template, https://www.wpdownloadmanager.com/doc/template-files/ 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.
Thanks.
I figured it out. I just added random number as id. I used todays date and time.
´
{
“title”: “Windows-package”,
“slug”: “Windows-package”,
“description”: “Windows package”,
“status”: “publish”,
“permalink”: “https:\/\/www.mypage.com\/download\/windows-package\/”,
“tags”: [
“windows”
],
“categories”: [],
“thumbnail”: false,
“files”: {
“2020020617491”: “\/downloads\/windows.exe”
},
“fileinfo”: {
“2020020617491”: {
“title”: “windows.exe”,
“password”: “”
}
}
}´
Hi!
Im trying to add a downloads package with API.
I can create package with following code.
{
"title": "Windows-package",
"slug": "Windows-package",
"description": "Windows package",
"status": "publish",
"permalink": "https:\/\/www.mypage.com\/download\/windows-package\/",
"tags": [
"windows"
]
}
I would like to add a local file to the package. I manage to do it through the wp-admin page but how do i create this id and file in API? Documentation says. “files object Array of attached file names key by file ids.”
"files": {
"1580905000596": "\/package\/windows-package.exe"
},
"fileinfo": {
"1580905000596": {
"title": "windows-package.exe",
"password": ""
}

I find an issue with your plugin. I want subscribers to only receive a downlink link by email.
So, in the tab “Lock options” (Edit package page), I check “Enable Email Lock”, “Ask for Visitor’s Name” and “After Submitting Form: Mail Download Link”. It works fine if I do not “Enable Captcha Lock” but if I check “Enable Captcha Lock”, if the subscriber enter email+name and check the Captcha, he have instant access to the file…
Could you please fix that problem? because I need to enable Captcha to prevent robot submissions.
Best regards
I messed up the email template and I can’t find the direct download link shortcode.
what is it?
[#download_url#] doesnt work.
it’s ok now : What have you changed to solve the problem
but one issue: if open any package link ex:
http://3dmaxmaya.com/download/car/
You will see
Your download limit: 3
download count for current period: 4
thanks a lot

This generally happens every time after you refresh the page, You can follow this documentation, https://www.wpdownloadmanager.com/doc/template-files/ 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 the [download_link]
tag with <a class="btn btn-success" href="[download_url]" target="_blank">[link_label]</a>
in your page/link template. Then you can see in the refresh slug key is regenerating every time after refreshing the page.
Thanks.
