In reply to: How do I change download?
You can follow the link below documentation,
by default, you are using link-template-default.php for link template and page-template-default.php for the page template. 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. And you have to replace[download_link]with<a href="[download_url]" class="btn btn-primary">Your Text...</a>in related PHP file.Thanks.

Please check the ticket here https://www.wpdownloadmanager.com/support/topic/document-link-format/
Topic: Document Link Format
In v3 the download link format was http://website.com/?wpdmdl=nnnn
In v5 the format is now http://website.com/wpdm-package/document-name?wpdmdl=nnnn&refresh=masterkey
However, the v3 format still works. My client wants to use the v3 format in their templates. Is this possible?
If the package-id could be made a template tag I think I could generate the links myself in the template, but I couldn’t find this option in your documentation.

If the frontend style is okay then the link template should be available in Downloads > Templates page. Please send temporary wp-admin login info in private reply so I can check the issue there.

In reply to: Unable to change images for separate downloads
Hi,
Please see, I have created a package called test file, link and gave a featured image. And this is showing in the front end. Because of not showing featured image of your package in front view selecting page template called premium package, I am not sure this is a pre-built template or made template. I have not accessed for editing the template. Now you have to do in the template PHP file, just have to put,
[featured_image]in<div class='row'> <div class='col-md-7'> [featured_image] </div>it will show the desired featured image. Please, let me know if it works for you.
Thanks.

1 ) Download in the search result page is working now. WPML plugin was breaking the download link generated by
[download_link], I have used a custom link template to replace[download_link]with[download_url]2 ) By layout, do you mean the link template? If yes, you can define
templatein search result shortcode to control the result view.3 ) The search widget title is visible now.
In reply to: Video Player
Hello,
You can upload video files via upload > select file. Then you have to choose your page template > video player from package settings. If you want to increase the maximum file upload size, you can follow this link, How to Increase the Maximum File Upload Size in WordPress Download Manager
if then works, let me know.
Thanks.
Whenever I email a link to download a package, the end user gets the following 2 errors:
Warning: include([my website directory]/wp-content/plugins/download-manager/tpls//download-page-clean.php): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /home/mytabtim/public_html/ameritechds.com/wp-content/plugins/download-manager/libs/class.Apply.php on line 1170 Warning: include(): Failed opening '[my website directory]/wp-content/plugins/download-manager/tpls//download-page-clean.php' for inclusion (include_path='.:/usr/local/php71/pear') in /home/mytabtim/public_html/ameritechds.com/wp-content/plugins/download-manager/libs/class.Apply.php on line 1170Note: “[my website directory]” replaced the real directory path for security purposes.
The first thing that jumps out at me is the double slash in the directory path. Not sure if this is intentional.
I am using the “Email Download Link” button from the All Packages page of the admin to send a link. The end user is receiving the message, but the page they land on displays the error above.
The error is also displayed if I use the “Download Page” link in the “Generate Download Link” overlay from the same page.
I can view the package page directly at https://ameritechds.com/download/epm-reporting-2020/.
I’m opening the page in the latest version of Chrome on Mac OS Mojave.
Thanks for any help you can provide. I’m trying to launch this feature for my client this week.

Topic: Custom Link Templates Broken
Since the recent updates, our Custom Link templates have broken. We are using Default Values as well. We have the template setup so that clicking on the Button and the Title of the download should automatically download the file without showing the Download Page. This has now stopped working.
This is the template code:
<div class=”well c2a3″>
<div class=”media”>
<div class=”mr-3″ align=”left”>
[icon]
</div>
<div class=”media-body”>
<h3 class=”media-heading” style=”padding-top: 0px;border:0px;margin: 0 0 5px 0;font-size:12pt;”>
[title]
<span style=”font-size:8pt;font-weight:300″ class=”text-muted ml-4″>
<i class=”fa fa-hdd mr-1″></i> [file_size]
<i class=”ml-3 fa fa-arrow-alt-circle-down mr-1″></i> [download_count] downloads
</span>
</h3>
[excerpt_80]
</div>
<div class=”ml-3″ align=”right”>

In reply to: Problems after updating to 5.0.3
Having the same issues here. Some of my downloads still work however others just fail.
Issue fixed, referred to post: https://www.wpdownloadmanager.com/support/topic/permalink-starting-with-number-issue/Hi there,
this might be a request for the Pro version, let’s see.
Let’s assume I have a dozens of packages with dozens of files included.
General purpose: Download Area for a mid-sized PC/Laptop manufacturer. Each package is one individual PC/Laptop-Model.The files have generic filenames like “myfile.zip”.
A lot of the dozens (if not hundreds) of packages link to the same files, becaus some drivers are generic and compatible with a wide range of models.
But some of them link to others, less generic, more specialized ones. The logic, which package links to which files, is exclusively represented in the backend configuration of each package. For the purpose of understanding the usage scenario, let’s say: 80% of the files in each package links to generic files and 20% link to specialized, unique files.Now in the FTP, I might replace the generic “myfile.zip” with an updated version, but without changing the filename. (No version numbers in filenames)
This is cool, because with this single action I have automatically updated the content of dozens (if not hundreds) of packages without having to click around the backend for hours.
Problem: the end-user does not see that an update has taken place. When looking at a specific package, the user does not see the upload date (last modified date) for each individual file.
*** Proposal: the frontend should be able to display the ‘last modified date’ for each individual file. ***
This could be done in 2 ways:
Solution A) Real-time query
When the frontend is building a the page for a package for the end-user, it could use some scripting to query the real URL location of each file to read the “Last modified date” for it. This should be possible via “HTTP HEAD” request as outlined here:
https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTTP/Headers/Last-ModifiedThis real-time query should be optional because it might slightly slow down the parsing of the frontend page.
Solution B) Additional SQL column and Index re-build function
The “Last Modified Date” for each file could be stored in a SQL column. This way it would be quick and easy to parse during the end-user loading of the Package.
But if I replace a file on the FTP server (without changing the filename), the WordPress Plugin and SQL database will not take note of that change. Thus, you need a “Rebuild Index” or “Re-query last modified date” function in the backend. This could be a sample button that re-queries every currently known link (as in every unique wpdmdl=abc&ind=xyz combination), reads the “last modified date” for each file from the server and writes it into the SQL field for each such link. This query might take a few seconds and should probably only be done during low load time or maintanance.*** Final thoughts ***
I have thought about this problem a lot and I’m 99% sure that my proposal is the only viable solution. The fact that this plugin currently cannot easily display the “last modified date” of individual files (without long, convoluted clicking through the backend for hours) is a big oversight in this otherwise extremely useful and highly functional wordpress plugin.
Please let me know what you think or if you have any questions. Thank you!

Hi,
WPDM only create a zip when there are multiple files with a package. For the packages with multiple files, you can to use link and page template where you need to use [file_list] tag, but skip using [download_link] tag.
[download_link] tag creates a download link to download the full package, and [file_list] shows download button next to the file name to download individual file when single file download is enabled.Demo: https://demo.wpdownloadmanager.com/wpdmpro/download/multi-file-package/
Alternatively, you can enable “Cache ZIP file” option, which will keep the zip file created from initial download request of a multi-file package, and serve it for the every other download request without creating new one.

Hi,
It is possible, you can do it with File Hosting & Sharing Add-on. There you can give access to a user a particular package. You can also see a demo from the given link of this add on.
Thanks.

Ah, found the fix here:
Topic: Invalid Download Link Error
Hi!
The “Invalid Download Link” error just started a week or so ago. No rhyme or reason to the users that are experiencing it.

Yes possible, you can follow the link below documentation,
https://www.wpdownloadmanager.com/doc/template-files/
by default, you are usinglink-template-default.phpfor link template andpage-template-default.phpfor the page template.

Hi,
Are you searching for an individual item will download via a new tab, you can use this shortcode
[wpdm_direct_link id="Package ID" target="_blank" label="Download Me!" class="css class names" eid="element-id"]let me know if this works for you.
thanks.
Try 3 different downloads, then refresh the page. Don’t click on same link multiple title, repeated click on same link in same session will be counted as one.
