I am very frustrated.
I downloaded this plugin so the visitor cant go to the wordpress link.
I use password protection for the file.
Whenever i click download, it goes directly to the file link instead of downloading it automatically.
Please help
Thanks.
I found numerous topics for this exact same issue, but you have not posted how to resolve it. See here:
Test Audio
Password: egbdf
You get the invalid download link.
If I turn off the password protect it works fine.
Hi,
thanks for your reply.
I followed your guide and then copied the file linktemplate-default.php from the plugin folder on my theme to the path download-manager/tpls/link-template/lin-template-default.php making the changes I need. But nothing changes. Am I doing something wrong?
Thanks in advance

Hi @sbrusselle,
Have you checked this doc, 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 or email-templates. Then keep same name, but modify as you want.
Thanks.
You can share your file and give your downloadable file links here. You can upload your files like the file-sharing site, dropbox.com or https://files.fm/.
I use wpdm archive page in order to show all categories and downloads in a single page.
https://www.wpdownloadmanager.com/docsfor/wpdm-archive-page-2/
I correctly set a template.
Now, I would like to set the same template for the category page, showing the list of all packages of a single category (or tag) with the same layout of the archive page.
I use
taxonomy-wpdmcategory.php
Now this file is the copy of archive.php
Am I supposed to use this code of wpdm archive in the taxonomy-wpdmcategory.php file?
<?php echo do_shortcode('[wpdm-archive cat_view="compact" button_style="primary" link_template="5b0869632bbb6" items_per_page="5" wpdm_package template="5b09e3cfb0b50"]'); ?>
Here https://www.wpdownloadmanager.com/doc/template-files/
the “category page demo” is linking to add-ons, have you examples of category page demo?
I am not sure if I understand your reply.
1) Adjust the number of similar downloads packages that are displayed
2) Change the link template that is used for the similar downloads template
Please advise. Thanks.
Hello,
I can’t able to get you. do you want similar link templates for your all downloads? please let me know.
Thanks.
I have the following shortcode that creates a table with details on the left and a download button on the right.
[wpdm_all_packages items_per_page="20" jstable=1 order_by="title" order="ASC/DESC" cols="page_link,excerpt_900|download_link" colheads="Contenido|Descargar::50px"]
…as you can see here https://prnt.sc/r431dj
This is the actual page https://accesovascular.com/biblioteca/
I´d like to:
– Insert a “Read more” after excerpt_900
– If possible, link “Read more” to the download details page (page template)
– Keep the button on the right but link it to the download details page (page template)
– Hide the search box but keep the top and bottom pagination, see https://prnt.sc/r4360w
Regards,
Pablo
I have a few questions:
1) Is there a shortcode that needs to be used to display both the up-sells and cross-sells in the Linked Products add-on?
I have the add-on enabled and have added a linked product for the up-sell and a linked product for the cross-sell, but the recommended product is not showing anywhere on the package page or in the shopping cart area.
2) What are the differences between “Similar Downloads” and “Linked Products – Up-Sells”. Is the only difference that “Similar Downloads” are displayed based on keywords and “Up-Sells” are user defined? Does it matter if one is selling products versus offering products for members?
Please advise.
Hello,
I would like to adjust the following for the Similar Downloads:
1) The number of similar downloads that are displayed.
2) The link template that is used for similar downloads.
Please advise on where these settings can be updated from.
Thanks!
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.
Please let me know if it works for you
Thanks.
Hi,
1. If you are trying from the package creation metabox, then I will say it is working fine from my side.
2. All zones are shown fine with proper auth.
3 and 4. This can be a bug, I will update you about this.
If the attached files problem get solved, you can also download using a direct link from the “Attached Files” list in the frontend
Thanks.
I have this same question too. It would be great to disable the link to the download page.
Hi,
You can use this following code for the direct download link for a popup with email lock <a href="#unlock" class="wpdm-download-link wpdm-download-locked" data-package="[ID]">[thumb_700x400]</a>. Please let me know, if it works for you.
Thanks.
Hi,
I´m wondering if Google will index PDF downloads that have social locks.
I´d like Google to index them but, if a user tries to download it, he would have to share it on social networks before that.
If not, do I have any alternative?
This plugin has an add-on for Download Manager Pro https://fulltextsearch.org/addons/
But I´m not sure if it would index PDF files with a social lock.
Please advice.
Hi, I would like to do this also.
However, I have added download buttons using direct short-code in a ‘code block’ and by using the Tiny Mce widget. They both create a smart looking file link box and button but the button does not do anything. It does not change at all when hovering over it and nothing when you click on it. I have about a 100 individual pages which require a single direct download as well as multiple lists. (The lists are working fine.) Any clues how to fix this please and just get a direct download and not be redirected to another page to download?
This is my shortcode from using the Tiny Mce option. It looks nice, just doesn’t do anything.
[wpdm_package id="17022" template="link-template-calltoaction4"]
Thanks
Hi,
If you have Pro version you can edit the template from Templates settings. You just have to clone that and use it in your package. As you mention two different URL for web and mobile, you can see this documentation for that, https://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/wp_is_mobile and https://developer.wordpress.org/reference/functions/wp_redirect/
You can follow this documentation for creating a new template or editing 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.
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.
