Your Private Download Links Usage Limit: was set to 0 ( In Basic Setting Tab ). That is the number of times the URL can be used to download the file. I have set it to 5 and download is working like a charm.

If you need detailed privacy policy text you can follow ours ( http://w3eden.com/privacy-policy.html ) as it covers everything.
About the download log’s IP address, we are releasing an update today which will allow you to disable the IP logging. If IP logging is enabled our privacy policy ( http://w3eden.com/privacy-policy.html ) covers the related info to let users inform about that.
In the form https://locker.anglican.ca/download/test-download-package/ when a user submits their personal information the form just recycles and presents itself again blank without accessing the download link.

No, I just built my own template. And although the preview of the template still looks like I want the download-link to be, the real download is different. I added two screenshots: above the preview which is still correct and beneath the wrong truth…
But what I really do not understand using your plugins is: All the other plugins can be updated by klicking “update”. This is not possible with the WPDM. As I wanted to update the WPDM Button, the link went to the plugin-landingpage including all the WPDM-Files. Why is there an extra update information for an extra plugin but no extra download for the plugin. I don´t really get it, sorry. Maybe I am to weakminded but this seems to be the most complicated Plugin I have ever used. Nevertheless I like it (except the update-thing) 😉
So where do I get the update only for the WPDM Image Button?
Hi Anand,
Yes, you can add custom fields using our Advanced Custom Field add-on. Please check add-on details here https://www.wpdownloadmanager.com/download/advanced-custom-fields/
For each custom field, the add-on generates a template tag and PHP code. So, you can show the custom data easily in your custom link/page template or in a PHP template file.
Thanks.
Hello,
I have bought pro version and I used free version earlier. How can I install the pro version without losing my download files? When I install new pro version zip-file I get the message that the plugin still exist. I read that an add-on can help but I don’t know which one.
I bought pro version so that you can help to anonymize IP address of the users.
Do you have an privacy policy for w3 eden? I would like to link in my declaration.
Thanks and kind regards
Mailed download link expires when you update the package. Or it is happening without updating package? Please send me the package URL to check.
The issue is not corrected yet?
Pls let me know the solution…
Thanks in advance.
Hi,
I need to temporarily remove the lock from my download packages and enable visitors to simply download the files. However, when I disable the lock option, the embedded card changes appearance and the Download link doesn’t work when you click it. If you right-click the link the file does download, however, this is neither obvious nor convenient for visitors and would require me a lot of extra work adding explanatory text to each package. I’ve tried deleting the cache, but that didn’t have any effect. It’s pretty urgent that I resolve this issue as soon as possible. Thanks.
It is not possible to conditionally hide the button without code customization.
But you can use a custom template for packages that have no attached files. Just clone the current template you are using now and remove the [download_link]
template tag from there.
Hello, If the package no attached files, can i use [hide_empty:download_link] to hide it?
If not, how to do can hide the no attached files at the package download button?
Hi,
You’re welcome.
First: Seems like you are looking for this https://demo.wpdownloadmanager.com/wpdmpro/archive-page-compact/, in that case, you will need the archive page add-on:
WPDM Directory Add-on
Second:
You can see the quick preview of each template from templates page. Also, many link template demos are shown here https://demo.wpdownloadmanager.com/wpdmpro/ready-to-use-templates/
This happened to me about 2 months ago when migrating a dev site to live production server. All of our links and download pages reverted back to the default. Never finding out why/how, I ended up simply rebuilding the templates and had to do a search & replace to update all of the custom shortcodes. Luckily I only had 2 of them, and luckily, I knew how to use Search & Replace as we had about 40 instances of using a custom template.
FWIW – I transferred my site using ManageWP Clone feature.
Hi there, I’m using the following shortcode for my page here:
[wpdm_all_packages cols="title|file_count|download_count|categories|update_date|download_link" colheads="Title|File Count|Download Count|Categories|Update Date|Download" items_per_page="20" jstable=1]
But, as you can see in the following screenshot, the download listing is not updating: http://take.ms/df2PL.
Am I setting up the shortcode incorrectly? Any direction you can give me?
Thanks!
Hi,
Please use the following shortcode to show the package link with the title.
[wpdm_all_packages items_per_page="5" categories="windows, linux, osx" jstable=1 order_by="date" order="DESC" cols="page_link,file_count,download_count|categories|update_date|download_link" colheads="Title|Categories|Update Date|Download::155px"]
Thanks
I have the Mailchimp lock add-on and use this to create email lists of subscribers who download my content. I’m based in Europe and now the GDPR privacy law is coming into effect I need to make sure I comply. Mailchimp has the option of adding consent to its signup form, however, when people subscribe to my lists using the Download Manager package form they don’t receive the Mailchimp signup form with the consent options. Instead they receive a Mailchimp recaptcha email and are then automatically added to my list. I have double opt-in enabled in both my Download Manager settings and in my Mailchimp lists. Is there any way of linking Download Manager and Mailchimp so that users receive the Mailchimp signup form with the consent options that are so important for GDPR?
Hi, we just moved our site to a live server and now all of the custom templates have disappeared, and the download links are looking terrible. We need to get this resolved ASAP.
We had to do a find and replace to update the url’s to the live url address, so I’m not sure if that would have affected it.
Please help!
Multi-file zip download is working now. I deleted the previous installation of the plugin and installed a fresh copy. If you face the issue on other sub-sites, just deactivate and re-activate the Download Manager.
The [download_link]
template tag is working too. ( Removed onclick attribute & added {$post_vars['download_url']}
in href tag [ line no 185 class.Package.php ] )
Hi,
You can use link template (package details button) with the package shortcode to show your downloads on a page. Then the user can click on the details button to get into the single package page and download. Or
You can use Lazy Download, which offers you to redirect download to a different page and user needs to wait certain time period before download.
But there is no feature to redirect to same download details page from package page when user clicks on download. If you want custom modification please send details to customize@wpdownloadmanager.com
Thanks
Hi we are showing category wise downloads on our site. After clicking on any file user is redirected to page where all details of file are displayed with link to download them. We don’t want to allow user to download files from this page and we want user to be redirected to new page where all details will be displayed and download will start directly.
Can this be done out of box with your module or it will need customization for this?
Hi
I have recently updated the plugin to the latest version 4.7.4.

Can you please advise if there is anything I need to do here?

Shariar, good evening. It was working until the Premium update today. Now when you attempt to download it doesn’t produce the link-expired.txt file, it just bounces you to the homepage without downloading any file at all. Would you please take a look? Is it possible that the quick-fix code that worked before is conflicting with the new Premium update?
Thanks for taking the time, will send login credentials in a separate note.
Scott
