For a PDF package in which I have no Link Template and the Page Template is Single Column with Doc Preview, when the Download link is clicked, is there a way to have the rendered preview appear in a new window?
I use to have WPDM FREE version, so i use to add file – go to all file – copy short code – add it into my page – the download is displayed in a nice way and when users click it – the download start directly .
Moved to pro version, doing the same steps as before but when my users click the link their are being redireted to another page in order to start the download.
Need to stop that and make it easy like the free version, the download should start directly.
Setting up guest order page is pretty simple. Create a page and place this shortcode there [wpdmpp_guest_orders]
To add this guest order page URL in your purchase confirmation email you have to edit the purchase-confirmation template from Downloads Templates Email Template page. Replace the [#order_url#] with the guest order page link and that’s it.
You can hide the download count using a custom page template. Just clone ( Downloads Templates Page Templates ) the current page template you are using now. And remove the [download_count] tag from there and save the template.
Now you can set this as you page template from package settings. If you need more info in custom templates please check the following links,
Thanks Eftekher, that is not the email I was meaning. There is no problem with the Paypal transaction – it gets charged and both me and the customer get notified by Paypal.
However customers are telling me that they are not able to access the URL to download the file they just paid for. At first I thought they were not receiving the email with the link but I have just found out that they are. The problem is that my guest purchases page was not set up properly so the customers are unable to access the download link or register. For now I have turned off guest checkout and guest download.
Is there a document that explains how to set up the guest purchases page?
I don’t want to show the download count on my post but I can’t find the option to remove it. I’m talking about the page that shows on links like these: http://www.mydomain.com/download/filetodownload
I don’t want to visitors to see how many times it’s been downloaded.
Now that the Polylang plugin is disabled, the table is displaying fine by using the following shortcode:
[wpdm-all-packages items_per_page=”10″ categories=”product-rubber-black” jstable=1 order=”ASC”]
But, earlier each item in the table was hyperlinked to the individual download page. Which means each item could be clicked to open a download page for that particular package/item. But now the hyperlinks are gone. The individual package/item pages can not be accessed.
This is a php code, you should implement the code in a php file where you are performing your Download now option.
You cannot use this code in a javascript code .
If you are using download link of Download Manager you don’t have to implement it separately , Download Manager by default implements it.
Hi there, I’ve set up some paid downloads on my site using Paypal. When I do a test purchase using Test Pay, I receive an email with the subject “Thanks for your purchase”. This directs me to the URL with the download link. But when I get orders via Paypal, the customer is not receiving this email and I am not receiving a copy of this email. What am I doing wrong?
I’m trying to configure the role based restriction to certain files.
I want to make all files visible to registered users, and certain files to a specific role.
I can’t even restrict the visibility to registered users only. Take a look on my first attachment.
If I click the download link, I can get the file, even if I’m not authenticated. I put the download link in my page with his shortcode – [wpdm_package id='1443'].
Take a look at my second attachment to see how the package is configured.
Expected behavior is: click on download should download the attachment for authenticated users; non-authenticated users should be redirected to login page.
Please add the following code to your theme’s functions.php file and use [wpdm_download_tags cols="4" icon="tag" btnstyle="default"] shortcode to show the custom download tag created by the code I posted above.
Yes, you can hide or show any package info you want using a custom link template. You can create custom link template from Dashboard Downloads Templates page.
I think there are more issues with the Centric template. For example, the download link is missing and the widgets in the sidebar don’t show up. I will try a different template for this test.
Oh, got it now. The issue was related to the link_template parameter in wpdm_packages shortcode. The correct parameter should be template I have updated the homepage shortcode. Now download link is linked to the package details page.
