    Hi WPDM Support Team,

    I am planning to build a software download experience on our WordPress site similar to this workflow: https://downloads.flexconsoftware.com/p/emulation#step-1

    Before purchasing, we would like to confirm if your plugin (along with any of your official add-ons) can handle this exact flow:

    1. Software Selection & Lead Capture: A user arrives at the download page, selects the desired software version/architecture (e.g., Windows 64-bit, macOS, Linux), and fills out a multi-field form (Name, Email, Company, etc.).
    2. Inline Email OTP Verification: Upon submitting the email, the system generates a 6-digit OTP code (or a verification link) sent to the user’s inbox. The user enters this code on the same page (or verifies it via link) to confirm ownership.
    3. Seamless Download Access: Once verified, the download is unlocked instantly without requiring page reloads or forcing a traditional password-based registration.
    4. No Link Expiration: The access/download link provided after verification must not expire over time.

    Could you please advise if this setup can be achieved using WPDM and its add-ons, or if you recommend integrating WPDM with a form plugin (e.g., Elementor Pro Forms / Fluent Forms) + an OTP verification tool?

    Looking forward to your guidance!

    Best regards,

    Yes, exactly. And those very intervals are to be reduced.

    Here the Template:

    <div class=”col-6-100″>
    <div class=”link-template-default card mb-2″>
    <div class=”card-body”>
    <div class=”row row-cols-1 row-cols-md-3 g-3 align-items-center”>

    <!– Spalte 1: Icon –>
    <div class=”col-auto text-left text-md-start”>
    <div class=”img-48″>[icon]</div>
    </div>

    <div class=”col flex-grow-1″>
    <h3 class=”package-title mb-1″ style=”color:#666666; font-size:1.1em; font-weight:600;”>[title]</h3>
    <div class=”mb-2″ style=”color:#808080; font-size:13px; font-weight:400; line-height: 1.4;”>[description]</div>
    <div class=”text-muted small”>
    <span style=”color:#808080;”><i class=”far fa-file-pdf me-1″></i> [file_size]</span>
    </div>
    </div>

    <div class=”col-12 col-md-auto text-md-end”>
    <div class=”d-grid d-md-block”>
    [download_link]
    </div>

    It is not working for guest users on our site. We have renewed your temp admin access since yesterday for a week.
    I sent you the log to your email address.
    The logs show:
    The download page returned HTTP 200.
    A related admin-ajax.php request returned HTTP 400.
    /wp-json/wpdm/email-to-download returned HTTP 200.
    The generated email download URL returned HTTP 200, but its response was only 1,220 bytes.

    The browser displayed “Invalid Download File” when opening the generated email link. Since the final request returned only 1,220 bytes, it appears the plugin may be returning the error message inside an HTTP 200 response rather than serving the actual file.

    Please check the token validation, guest-session handling, and file-index validation for the generated email link.

    I have a download page with this block:

    [wpdm_all_packages login=0 thumb=1 items_per_page="20" categories="EFI ECT DN" jstable=1 order_by="title" order="ASC" cols="title,file_count,download_count|publish_date|post_content|download_link" colheads="Title|Date|Description|Download::155px"]

    The post_content, as you said, is non longer available and I would like to know how to replace this column name in order to view the post text.

    For example, a download in the “EFI ECT DN” category contains the following text:

    New features and fixed problems in version 4-12-749-0 (Released 2024-07-03)

    Full version history
    <p class=”sectionedit2 page-header pb-3 mb-4 mt-5″>Online documentation</p>

    If I replace the “post_content” column name with the “description” column name in the wpdm_all_packages block, I don’t see anything in the “Description” column. If I replace the “post_content” column name with “exerpt” in the wpdm_all_packages block, I see the post text, but as plain text and not as HTML.

    Is there a way to display the post’s HTML text in the “Description” field?

    On some pages I have blocks similar to this one

    [wpdm_all_packages login=0 thumb=1 items_per_page="20" categories="XYZ" jstable=1 order_by="title" order="ASC" cols="title,file_count,download_count|publish_date|post_content|download_link" colheads="Title|Date|Description|Download::155px"]

    I can see all the details except post_content (this column displayed correctly in previous versions). How can I fix this?

    Hi, did you manage to fix the issue with Invalid download links?

    Hello Toinette,

    Thank you for your detailed description of the issue. Please kindly check this doc here too, https://www.wpdownloadmanager.com/doc/wpdm-extended-shortcodes/, The plugin doesn’t include an HTML5 audio player or click-to-play capability. Packages files only link to package pages or direct downloads. I hope you have understood. Please kinldy check.

    Thank you

    Any update on this issue? I just discovered that downloads are resolving to an “invalid download link” on my site, as well.

    It’s been a week since we’ve been troubleshooting a site-wide “Invalid download link” error, every package fails identically for guests, including a brand new test package with zero settings applied. Here’s what we’ve ruled out so far, each tested directly with before/after verification:

    CleanTalk: confirmed not blocking, their own test request was approved and logged
    FlyingPress cache: purged fully, added wpdmdl to Cache Exclusions, Delay JS Exclusions, and Include CSS Selectors, no change
    Permalinks: flushed rewrite rules, no change
    Package settings: tested with lock options off, Download Limit cleared, Cache Zip File disabled, no change
    Memcached: confirmed unrelated, ruled out separately
    WPDM’s own cache: cleared via Privacy > Clear All Cache, no change

    Found this old thread on your own forum from 2019 describing the exact same error message, “— Invalid download link —”, appearing after a plugin update, that time tied to password-protected downloads (our packages are not password protected and free downloads). Wondering if this is a recurring bug in the codebase rather than a site-specific config issue.

    Could your team check if that older issue has resurfaced in 7.5.2? Your team has temp admin access. Please release the patch to fix this error.

    Thanks

    On this page, https://wellcare.barkingbird.us/well-owners-network-newsletters/, the top download link, Summer 2026, does not work. Refer to screenshot: https://www.awesomescreenshot.com/image/61785507?key=14f1cf91d0c3dffc2f564ab15086f11d. Clicking it results in a 404 error.

    All of the rest of the download links on that page work fine

    Note, the package in that particular link contains a pdf that was uploaded directly into WPDM. All of the rest of the packages were created via the Filebase Import Add-On.

    I posted this question a couple days ago, but it has since disappeared.

    We have double checked the issue. Something is blocking the download link for guest users.
    It would be very helpful if you could create a staging site for testing. We’ll need to deactivate all plugins except Download Manager to check the issue.
    You can also give it a try.

    Thanks for your understanding.

    Hello Kim Adamof,

    Hope you are well. Please kindly check all the shortcodes and demos here, https://www.wpdownloadmanager.com/download/wpdm-directory-add-on/, then choose one shortcode. After choosing, please check if the shortcode has a template parameter. You have to make the template; it is a link template. Please browse Downloads > Templates > Link Templates, create a link template with the template tags here https://www.wpdownloadmanager.com/doc/template-tags/ according to your requirements. And use that template ID on the shortcode. Please kindly check if it helps you.

    Thank you

    Kindly try adjusting the private download link usage and expiration limit.

    Hi, I’m having an issue with my website, kdln.it. I use the WPDM plugin to manage file downloads on the “downloads” page (https://kdln.it/en/downloads/). Some files (e.g., 3D, BIM, etc.) require users to enter their name and email address, as the “email lock” option is enabled. The user then receives an email containing the download link.
    The strange thing is that some users are receiving broken links. For instance, regarding two links for the same file received via email: the first one displays an “Invalid download link” error, while the second works perfectly. Could you explain why this is happening and tell me how to fix this error?

    The use of WPDM on our site is not in page or post but exclusively with WPDM lists in this menu: RESOURCES>FISTF Downloads.
    So, we use always links like this: https://fistf.com/download/wpdm-test/

    The appearance is effectively not OK (very big icons).

    One strange thing:

    Hello,

    I tried [wpdm_changelog id="12345"] and also [changelog] but no one works (empty section with icon “changelog” and “[changelog]” displayed).

    Precision: I activated all free Addons.

    PS: in your documentation, you talk about [chanelog] instead of [changelog].

    Thank you for your help.

    The straightforward packages to download a software or manual when download link sent to email or has a ready download option giving an error ‘Invalid Download Link’. cleared server and download pro manager cache as well. Nothing works. Settings are same as all other packages. What’s causing the issue?

    This code would work well if I could specify the “Page Templates,” because I can’t stop using the zip across the entire site.

    add_filter( 'wdm_before_fetch_template', 'hide_download_link_for_logged_in_users', 10, 3 );
    
    function hide_download_link_for_logged_in_users( $vars, $template, $package ) {
    
        if ( is_user_logged_in() ) {
            $vars['download_link'] = '';
        }
    
        return $vars;
    }

    Try applying this code in function.php file. If it does not meet your requirement, then customization is the only solution.

    add_filter('wpdm_get_files', 'hide_file_list_for_guests', 10, 2);
    
    function hide_file_list_for_guests($files, $package) {
        if (!is_user_logged_in()) {
            return [];
        }
    
        return $files;
    }
    
    add_filter( 'wdm_before_fetch_template', 'hide_download_link_for_logged_in_users', 10, 3 );
    
    function hide_download_link_for_logged_in_users( $vars, $template, $package ) {
    
        if ( is_user_logged_in() ) {
            $vars['download_link'] = '';
        }
    
        return $vars;
    }

    I had to remove the download link so that people couldn’t download the watermark-free PDF from multi-file packages.

    <div class="well">
    [download_link]
    </div>

    But this causes MY PROBLEM: the link for people to log in or sign up for protected packages doesn’t appear.
