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/.
In reply to: Download Manager packages order
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.
Hi,
I’m actually working on the latest version of download manager using wamp to avoid disturbing visitors,
But until i find the correct settings, templates etc, i would like my old version 2.4.3 to order packages
by alphabetical order as i was using a plugin to do that, but is not working since few weeks.I read online many many informations without finding what i was looking for, shortcodes? they are meant to be inserted in pages, i don’t have any pages! just categories and packages and all packages are displayed using the category link for the website.
Looking for a simple way, like modifying the SQL request on a file to “order by Name ASC” or something similar so all packages will always be displayed by name, not the time added. Which file should i modify?
Thanks for your help
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
Topic: Download button missing
Hi,
For some reason the download button from all downloads is missing (e.g. https://www.refresco.org/download/2018-stage_pauline_regnier/)
– It doesn’t matter if a user is logged on or not.
– I already deactivated a bunch of plugins
– I updated the theme (Avada) to the latest versionWhat could be wrong?
The direct download link in ‘all files’ view from the wp-admin does work. So the download link is still valid.
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-templatesfor link template. And you have to replace the[page_url]fromhrefreplacinghref="[download_url]"from line number 8 in your link-templatelink-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?
In reply to: Not counting XLSX file
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.
hi, hope you can help me.
I have WPDM free and I used the following short code to create a download button to a pdf file:
<div style=”text-align: center;”>
[wpdm_package id='1400' template ="link-template-button"]
</div>when hovering over the button it does not show the file location which is great!
but when i click on this button to things happen that i don’t want to happen:
1. the pdf file opens in a new tab instead of being downloaded.
2. the tab that opens up with the PDF file shows the full path to the file e.g:
https://mysite.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/02/my_file_name.pdfi am using Chrome browser.
How do i make the download button trigger an actual download without opening the file in a different tab?
Topic: Please Log in’ link error
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?

Topic: Download Title Font Colour
Hi. Within a row on a page, I have two columns – http://www.sentinelhouse.uk/contact-us. Into each column I have added a download, but the package title is appearing in blue.
I have added the following to try and change this colour to the green used throughout the rest of the site, but when I do so, the package title in the left column changes to the correct colour, but not the package title in the right hand column.
Can anyone explain what I have done wrong please?
*.package-title a:hover {
color: #398882;
text-decoration: none;
}.package-title a:link {
color: #398882;}
Thanks
In reply to: Creating Template Table to display Fields required
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-templatesfor page template ortpls>link-templatesfor link template.Thanks.
I am working on this complex site.
I was trying to create a table to display all required fields on the download section. Each section has a category. And different information about the file. So this is my question.
I made a template. I need to add extra fields ( What do I need to do this, a CODE inserted on Function.php which is my prefered method )
Also, I made this table, on my new template, but the title keeps repeating on each new download. I just want to see the title on the top ONCE. Then the list of files under on the table. I am calling the table with this code,
[wpdm_category id="resources" items_per_page="5" jstable="1" toolbar="0" template="5e3b60f6edb26" cols="1" colspad="2" colsphone="1"]
This is my table,
<table>
<tr>
<th>File #</th>
<th>Name</th>
<th>Phase</th>
<th>Issued by</th>
<th>Updated Date</th>
<th>Download</th>
</tr><tr>
<td>[version]</td>
<td>[title]</td>
<td>Spain</td>
<td>[create_date]</td>
<td>[update_date]</td>
<td>[download_link]</td>
</tr>
</table>I am sure I need to buy one of the plugins to make this work. Please help me.
Topic: Not counting XLSX file
Hi, I’m using a single xlsx file in a wpdm entry to generate the direct download link and use it as a direct link, but when the link is used the count doesn’t increase and doesn’t even register the download, so far it only happens with the xlsx file.

I figured it out. I just added random number as id. I used todays date and time.
