Hello,
I am using WP Form Lock with Gravity Form. When the gravity form is submitted a “download” link appears but when you click on it nothing happens, no download.
It depends on your Knowledge Base’s search feature. It is searching the Knowledge Base content before the shortcode being rendered. Even though your download contains the keyword “EPAL” the Download Manager shortcode doesn’t have this keyword. So, the Knowledge Base search can’t find a match.
You can place all your downloads somewhere else. Use the archive page add-on ( directory add-on ) shortcode which will provide easy sear and filter options. Then add the link to related doc in pacakge content.

Thank you for the response!
RE: When using the main download button.
I applied this code to the custom link template and it works great. Is there a way to still have the styled “DOWNLOAD” button with this code, versus just using the words “Download”?
Thank you in advance!
Please send me the CSV file download link. I want to test it on my setup. You can upload it to dropbox or somewhere else and then share a download link.
Hi,
Looks like you have switched to download option instead of opening the file in the browser.
When using the main download button:
To open file in new tab replace [download_link] with <a href="[download_url]" target=_blank>[link_label]</a> in your custom page/link template.
If you want to use single file download buttons ( you are using this now ):
Add the following code to your active theme’s functions.php file to open single file download links in a new tab. We have added target='_blank' in single file download button using wpdm_single_file_download_link filter.

Thanks

I recently started using the Tagdiv Newspaper template.
I have a default template for WP Download Manager, but if I use it, the fields are shown twice, see the link below. How can I solve this? I actually want to make a template myself via TAGDiv composer.

Hi,
I can’t find where to customise the email people who request to download my document receive to download it.
It uses some generic description of my app either from Google metadata or even maybe from the App store…
Thank you for your help
PS initially it will come up with a long series of columns for whatever you are editing. Then, you can tell it to search your database for more columns. Then, you take some time to add and remove (hide) columns that you aren’t interested in editing. Right-click on headings and many other things to find additional features. Select a cell and drag up or down (like in excel) to fill adjacent cells with the same information.
A good example – Edit your downloads (posts). Then search for specific ones you want to edit by name or template type (or anything). You can then change the price, template, link template or whatever you want to edit individually. Or, edit one cell (a link template for example) and drag to apply that link template to many items (hundreds if you like).
When you save, it saves a few at a time. It doesn’t overload your server.
Check your edited downloads afterwards. Occasionally it misses saving one or two. Usually, there’s a reason for that such as a secure PDF or some anomaly.

The simple search shortcode is [wpdm_simple_search template="link-template-panel" cols=3 ] This shortcode requires WPDM Directory add-on, however, the Special Pack has it included.
Hi,
Please give me your link and temporary wp-admin login info in a private reply to check. It is probably a cache issue, may need to exclude the download links from cache if you are using a cache plugin.
When I try to download it from this link you provided, it asks for me to pay for it, even though I am logged in under my Business license ID. Does this add-on require an additional payment?
Most probably the issue related to Email Template. I tried to change the template to test a plain download link but couldn’t save the templates. Provided user doesn’t have the permission to send AJAX request ( that’s the response I saw on console )
Please remove any restriction if you have placed on temp user. Or try using just
<a href="[#download_url#]">[#download_url#]</a> insted of custom button in email template.

This code <a href="[download_url]" class="button">DOWNLOAD</a> won’t work with locked packages. You have to use [download_link] tag instead.
I have updated your custom link and page template to fix this. Now downloads are working. If you want to change the button style you can do that from Downloads > Settings > User Interface Tab.
Hi,
how is the correct for echo $download_link ? $download_link : '—';?

Hi,
Please check the download link expiration options from the Basic Settings page http://prntscr.com/pjxfnw Send temporary wp-admin login info in private reply if you can resolve it by changing these options.
Thanks.
The issue doesn’t seem to occur to all visitors. Tried on Chrome, Firefox, and iOS Chrome. But worked in all cases without any issue. Not sure if it is a browser version related issue. I am using the latest versions. You can use the embedded form to avoid such an issue to be on the safe side. Replace [download_link] with [download_link_extended] in your link template to embed the form.
I have a download link on this page https://basicwavez.com/50-famous-edm-chord-progressions-free-midi-pack/ at the top. A lot of users report clicking it does nothing until they open it in a new tab and try again. It also doesn’t seem to respond at all on mobile.

You are using the “Call to Action 3” link template there. You have to modify the link template to remove the link from the title.
1 ) Clone “Call to Action 3” from Downloads > Templates > Link Template page.
2 ) The replace <a style="font-weight: 700" href="[page_url]">[title]</a> with just [title] and save the custom link template.
3 ) Copy the template id from Link Templates page to use it in your shortcode.
