I am using the following code:
[wpdm_all_packages items_per_page="10" categories="datasheets" jstable=1 order_by="title" order="ASC/DESC" cols="title,excerpt|download_link" colheads="Product Number|Download::150px"]
I do not get a “Display x downloads per page” link in the upper left nor does the pagination work. This worked prior to installing the 4.7.7 update.
You were using the frontend uploader page ( [wpdm_frontend] ) which is not the correct shortcode for showing all downloads. The right shortcode is [wpdm-all-packages jstable=0 items_per_page=10] I have updated the shortcode.
Now download page is here- https://www.toi-suisse.com/media-download/
If a user is not logged in a login button will be shown instead of the download link. After login, the user will be redirected to the download page.

When creating the package you will set the access for the package from package setting meta box.
Hello, we currently have a private website were users can download files depending on their role. We have set WPDM so “When user is not allowed to download it only blocks download link” but when we set only “subscribers” have access to a file, other roles can download it too.
We tried the option “Hide Everithing” on the plugin settings and it works fine, but we really would like to use only the restricted download option.
I am using WPDM’s table display shortcode to display a list of documents from a particular category. Is there any way to make the “title” display as a hyperlink so I don’t need a separate title and download column?

Hi Support
I have a problem with my download button.
Previously when i had an issue with it, I was told to you change [download_link] in the template to “[link_label]“, and it worked for a small amount of time.
I have been having another problem for approximately 2 weeks, my download button does not work , if I leave [ download_link] in the template certain documents have ” #unlock” in the URL but still, downloads and others have “#” in the URL and doesn’t work.
Then if I change [ download_link] to “[link_label]” then the documents with “unlock” in the URL change to “#” and stops working and the documents with “#” in the URL changes to “unlock” and works.
I can not get all the documents to work at the same time.
I have attached some images of the code.
Please assist as soon as possible.
Regards
Laurika
Hi there,
This works. It solves the problem, but it creates a new issue. Now the icons aren’t appearing in the way they used to. Here is my template code. I’m wanting the icon to act as a link to the document. Can you please help me out? Please note you still have access to the site. Thanks!
<div class=”media”>
[icon]
<div class=”media-body”>
<h4 class=”media-heading” style=”padding-top: 0px;border:0px;margin: 0px;”>
[title]
</h4>
<div class = “file-size wrapper”><p class = “file-size”>[file_size] </p></div>
</div>
</div>
There is no limit on the number of files per package. Could you please send me the download page link or wp-admin login info in private reply?
Hi there,
Trying to denote what is and what isn’t premium content by adding a star to the title via font awesome or an image and both ways are being stripped from the code below. Is there a trick to this? Or is there a way to add a differentiating icon of sorts to certain downloads perhaps based on category?
<div class=”media”>
[icon]
<i class=”fa fa-star” title=”Premium Lynx Content”></i>
<div class=”media-body”>
<h4 class=”media-heading” style=”padding-top: 0px;border:0px;margin: 0px;”>[page_link]</h4>
<div class=”dm-exerpt”>[excerpt_150] </div>
</div>

I have configured a link template with the following variable[thumb_WxH]. Before the last update, the respective thumbnail was displayed without any problems, however, this does not happen now.
The code it generates is as follows:
<img class="wpdm-thumb wpdm-thumb-60x60 wpdm-thumb-108597" src="http://pre-snaspe.lazos.cl/wp-content/plugins/download-manager/cache/RRi1_BDD6-60x60.jpg" alt="Presence of yaw (Leopardus guigna) within Puyehue National Park, Los Lagos Region">
The path/wp-content/plugins/download-manager/cache/ exists but there are no files in it.
I have the ImageMagick-6.7.8.9-15 package installed on my server.
Please help me to solve this problem that didn’t happen before. You can check that I have the same problem with all files uploaded at the following URL http://pre-snaspe.lazos.cl/biodiversidata/#1522337162728-10
Hi,
We recently installed an SSL certificate via BlueHost and we use SiteLock for gwg.org. Since this update/DNS change our WP Download Manager isn’t working at all. It seems to be timing out, and no one is getting the immediate download or the email with link.
This is the page with the most downloads on it: http://www.gwg.org/application-settings/
Could you please help me troubleshoot this? I have no idea where to begin.
I’ve setup an admin login for the site, let me know if you need access to this.
Thank you,
Alexandra
hey,
i’m new to wpdownloadmanager – this looks all very promising in backend (creating categories, subcategories and upload/linking files).
however,
how can i show now these (sub)categories on a front-end page so our users can navigate between these categories and download the needed files.
thanks for your quick feedback on this.
br,
Stanislas
Updated your custom link template. Replaced [download_link] with <a href="[download_url]" target="_blank">[link_label]</a>. The download is working now.
You can check the Downloads Stats Download History Tab. If there is any download from unknown IP then that should indicate the order has been downloaded. But entries are not linked to the order id.
Yes, it is possible to insert the order id in the database. If the customer is a registered user you can just assign another order with the same product. You can create the order a guest and then assign it to the custom from order details admin page.
It is also possible to create an order with that order id. But we have to edit database entry for that.
That’s not possible. If users want to download single files then they have to use the individual file download links.
Yes, I think this time I got what you were saying all these time 🙂
The issue seems to be related to the iframe. But have to investigate further to be sure. But the embedded download link works fine. I have applied the embedded download link using another page template to fix the issue.
1, No I have issues with two files . Neither have locks, the emailed link doesn’t work, AND get errors when click to download from the package page

2. But how do I edit the template file to get what I want? by coding it?
Hi,
Sorry for the delayed reply.
1 ) Download works fine when the package has no locks. Tested this one http://www.habitararchitects.co.uk/download/7082-transmittal-0001/ To make sure, we are talking about the Email Download Link feature here.
https://www.evernote.com/l/AUdbCE97n1hAqLF2dy30vFg-vlnQtUc7NvwB/image.png
2 ) You are not moving the file. You are making a new template file to override the default one. Your changes will still be there when you update the plugin.
Thanks.
Hi,
You can use a template file to modify the Register Now link in the login form. The login form template is located here /download-manager/tpls/wpdm-login-form.php. Copy that file and place it in /your-active-theme/download-manager/ directory. Then modify the link in this new template file. Please check templates doc here https://www.wpdownloadmanager.com/doc/template-files/
You can also add extra fields in registration form using the same approach. Registration form template is wpdm-reg-form.php in the same directory.
There is another way to add custom fields in the registration form. You can use the wpdm_reg_form hook. Here is the hook documentation https://www.wpdownloadmanager.com/doc/action-reference/wpdm_register_form/
Best regards.
I know. The problem happens when I use the package URL on the plugins lock options.
I changed the share URL of one of the packages back to the package URL so that you can see for yourself.
Can you try to share on linkedin from this link please?
https://dragoman.ist/tr/ceviri_kaynaklari/basin-cevirileri-kilavuzu/
It wil lshare on Linkedin. And then click on the Link on Linkedin. It will take you back to my website. Try to do go through the same process.
You will see that the download button will not bring share on linkedin popup.
Am I clear now?
Please send temporary wp-admin login info in private reply to check the issue. Though, The download on your link worked fine for me.
Hi,
I wanted to know how to edit the Registration and Login forms.
For the login form, I would like the “Register” llink to open a specific registration form. (this is a registration form that i have created with another plugin, because i cannot figure out how to edit the wp download manager registration form).
I would also like to know how to add fields to the registration form (so i can solely use wp download manager, instead of the above method)
I would also like it to redirect users (upon login/registration) to their customer dashboard, instead of wp dashboard. How do i enable this?

Hi @shahriar
Thank you for your help, but I am still having problems.
When somebody submits the form the notification message that has been submitted appears but there is no option to download the document. You have to refresh the page to see the download link.
Secondly, I would prefer if possible to have the form appearing only if somebody wants to download the document, which will mean that he has to press the download button, so the page template with [download_link_extended] is not ideal. Is it possible to avoid?
