I am sorry that I must reactivate this discussion:
Now the error described above:
No downloads available and the message (translated): “The website has technical problems”.
is a permanent error.
Try gps.rother.de // EDIT: Because I must find a workaround to give our customers the possibility to download the files, you find the original site with it’s problem here: https://gps.rother.de/gps-downloads-rother-tourenfuehrer-not-working-original-site/ The problem occurs only, if you choose (with category “gps”) all packages. If the table contains only a part of the packages (like “wanderfuehrer”), downloads are available.
Perhaps the current version 4.9.3 is not compatible with WordPress 5.2.2? Or is there a limit in download packages?
This is a slight catastrophe for us and we need help as soon as possible.
If you need a login again, plese tell (I already deleted the old one).
Shortcode of the table:
[wpdm_all_packages items_per_page="20" template="5c52b37b15298,5c52b454a10c1" categories="gps" jstable=1 order_by="title" order="ASC" cols="page_link,file_count|categories" colheads="Title|Categories"]
What is interesting is that the tables of the other languages are working properly.
See https://gps.rother.de/english/
Only difference is the additional download button – but that we had to delete on the start site some tiome before because it caused problems. And of course, that the table contains not so many packages.
Thank you very much for fast help

Yes, you can use a custom page template without the [download_link] template tag. Clone the current page template and just remove the [download_link] tag from there.
Hello,
Can you please explain if there is a way to offer two different download buttons on a product? We offer products that come in two versions: Free basic version or Paid premium version. Only our paid members can access the premium versions (guests can only access the free basic versions).
So each product would have two buttons that look something like this:
Button #1: Download Free Basic Version
Button #2: Access the Premium Version
For Button #2 it doesn’t need to actually download a file. It could just be a link that redirects them to a page where they can login to access the premium version (or it could just be a link that takes them to our free trial membership signup page).
Is there any kind of template that could be used for this type of setup?
Please advise.
Hi Shahriar,
Thank you, that is very useful I didn’t realise the option was already included. I have a few queries:
1 – When the package is free to a particular Plan, the user goes through a purchase process but it still shows Paypal option in the checkout. Could it be made to not show any payment processor when the file is free?
2 – I used the order ID as the password to open the PDF (ie I left the field blank). It is quite difficult for the user to select the order ID to copy it because it is a link. Could it be added somewhere as an easily selectable ‘password’, to make things more clear.
3 – I would prefer if the user had to enter their website password or email address to open the file (because they won’t want to share that information with someone else). Could that be implemented in PDF stamper?
4 – Because this PDF (for example) is available for free to some plans, it can be downloaded without going through the PDF stamper process by using the link in “Membership Items”. Can that be avoided so that any download of the PDF always goes through PDF stamper?
Many thanks,

I have a website I am managing using WPDM, I have a page that was created using Visual composer and implemented shortcodes on the page to display downloads.
The shortcodes used are
[wpdm_search_result cols=1 template="5b255c0a0640f"]
and
[wpdm_packages link_template="link-template-semi-ext.php" order_by="post_title" order="asc" paging="1" items_per_page="10" title="" desc="" cols=1 colsphone=1 colspad=1]
Everything was working 100% and now all of a sudden the page is not accessible to the public – it displays a box with two fields asking for username or Email and Password
ANy ideas on why this might be happening and how to fix it please – I need to know urgently as this is the download center for the whole iste that the public can now no longer view.
When logged in as administrator the page views as it did before
When the subscribers click the download link (mp3 files), I want the users to download, not playing the audio files. How can I do that? Thanks.
Hi Jennifer,
Accept greetings from WordPress Download Manager team!
Nothing to worry, just get a new license from this link WPDM PRO Pricing Page, We will take care of the rest.
After your purchase share your Admin login details in a private reply, hopefully, everything will be sorted without any data loss!
Cheers

Hello, is it possible to turn off “sorting by titel, date, asc, dsc”, so that only the title is shown.
Please look at “https://jomurema.at/download”
[wpdm_category id="all" operator="IN" title="Manuals" toolbar="1" paging="0" order_by="field name" order="asc" items_per_page="20" template="link-template-widget" cols=2 colspad=2 colsphone=1]
Thank you very much

You can add the categories parameter in your all packages shortcode to show downloads from selected categories. Use comma separated category slug when adding multiple categories.
Here is detailed documentation https://www.wpdownloadmanager.com/doc/short-codes/wpdm_all_packages-list-all-downloads-in-tabular-format-in-a-page/
The demo page is using category shortcode with a custom link template. I see you have already implemented the shortcode on your site using a different link template.
Package zip download works fine. I have tested here https://communityactionangelsny.org/download/test/ Your previous files weren’t linked properly. I reuploaded 2 files and download was fine after that.
Please run a test again and let me know if still having an issue.
Hi,
Here is an example of package shortcode using “link-template-panel-1-3” We defined the template using template shortcode parameter.
[wpdm_package id='1674' template="link-template-panel-1-3"]
If no template is defined in the shortcode, it will use the Link Template set on the package settings.
You can check the template documentation here https://www.wpdownloadmanager.com/doc/templates/ Or ask me if you have further query.
Thanks.
I have added the link. You can modify the link from /themes/pobierz/download-manager/wpdm-reg-form.php file at line 160. The form is designed in a way that keeps the submit button disabled until required filled are filled. So, it is not necessary to show the required message.
Hey,
after updating downloadmanager to version 4.9.8 the licence key was lost.
• I tried to reenter the key with the message “Invalid Licence Key”.
• As supposed in the DM forum I tried to update manually to version 4.9.8, with the same issue.
• I tried to reinstall Version 4.7.8, the Licence Key is not excepted any more.
Meanwhile the URL of the WP installation changed. I tried to remove the Linked Site but the site reappears anytime I reopen the popup.
How can I reactivate the license?!
I have created this table and want, that instead of “all packages” there will be shown only packages from “2 categories”. How does ist work?
[wpdm_all_packages items_per_page="20" jstable=1 order_by="title" order="ASC" cols="title,file_count,download_count|categories|update_date|download_link" colheads="Name|Category|Update|Download"]
Please look at https://jomurema.at/download/
Just another question. How can I create this wonderful table:

Thank you very much in advance

Hi support,
I use WPDM archive plugin to create a download center. But the search function not works well.
I can see the PDF in the list and search it. Page returns nothing to me.
Do you know what’s the root cause? Thanks.
(because the website is under developping, i will provide the link in another message.)
Thanks! We can’t find the “Email Download Link” option… Can you send us a printscreen?
Wondering if there is a way to display any of the users profile information from fields in their profile to display in a “link template”?
I see there are many template tags to be included (https://www.wpdownloadmanager.com/doc/templates/template-tags/) when building custom template.
My client would like two fields included in the link template:
1. The person/users name. First and Last Name
2. Their business name. Which might need to be a custom field, but I don’t see a way to see how to do this unless the custom field plugin allows to put the field information into a “link template”
Can you please let me know if adding tags or user profile information is possible when creating custom “link templates”. Or advise me on how to achieve this.
Thanks!
Barry
Hello,
I ask you to help me understand, how to integrate templates like “link-template-panel-1-3“ to my download side. How does the shortcode look like.
The same question I have how to integrate a site-template.
Thank you very much in advance
Christoph
Thanks for fixing that, good to know an upgrade needs to be a delete and re-install.
I fixed the widgets, they got messed up on the way.
I noticed that the page templates are still reporting as “Pre-designed templates can’t be deleted or edited from this section. But you can clone any of them and edit as your own. If you seriously want to edit any pre-designed template you have to edit those directly edting php files at /download-manager/templates/ dir”
However this information is no longer correct. The template are stored in “/download-manager/tpls/page-templates” directory. A similar change has also been made to the link templates. Users need to manually copy those to the correct location if they have made their own (hopefully they took a copy before deleting the old version).
The old templates don’t work any more, so they will need correcting, but that all makes sense, things change.
Thanks for the prompt support and fixes/advice.
Hi Thanks for response. I have placed the shortcode for my package and set the look of the download buttons on my website, this is working fine. The problem I have is when I enable the email lock and place the url to my website under my video on the you tube, or any different external website and people click in the link, they going to my website and try to download the package, but the download button is not working, the popup window where you need to enter your email address does not show at all, even if you reload the page.
I have tried on google chrome firefox and edge browser. Here is the link ( https://bit.ly/2G12ZnG ) and here is my you tube video where I placed the link (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tC6Q4gEZSTY&feature=youtu.be&ytbChannel=null ). If you click the * Download Game Graphics https://bit.ly/2G12ZnG under my you tube video the website will open, but the popup to insert email address will not.
Hope my explanation is clear. Thanks for your help.
Create a custom template link template from Downloads Templates page. In the custom template place the following code,
<a target="_blank" class="btn btn-success" href="[download_url]">[title]</a>
Use this new template in your shortcode.
Hi,
There are two bulk import options available. CSV and Directory import. In the case of CSV, you have to create the CSV file with all necessary package info.
Directory import is easier. You select a dir and import all files. One package will be created for each file.
Documentation link https://www.wpdownloadmanager.com/doc/bulk-import/
Now, the question is dow you need multiple packages/posts? How many files do you have? If you want you can attach the whole directory in a package.
Thanks.
