Please check the “Private Download Links Usage Limit:” option in the Basic settings tab. Maybe it is set to 0. Set it to a higher value.
Send temporary wp-admin login info in private reply if that doesn’t fix the issue.

/download-manager/tpls/wpdm-reg-form.phptemplate. Here you will find template customization documentation https://www.wpdownloadmanager.com/doc/template-files/2 ) You have to create a Facebook App to get that info.

Clicking on the Listado de útiles escolares para escuelas de primaria link in blue box in upper right corner generates a pop up that just says “Download”. I just want the file to open.Topic: Icon Size
Hello – I recently installed download manager free updated plugin in WP. After that when, I insert shortcode it works fine but the Icon size is too big. How can, I make it small? All my attachments for download are PDF format only.

Topic: Login link broken.
Sorry if this has been asked, but I can’t find the answer in the forum.
I just installed the free version and everything is working great except when a user is not logged in. The Login Required Message is this: Please login to download, but it doesn’t link. This was already set when I installed the plugin and I have not changed it.
Here is the page in question: http://www.inexhaust.com/download/test/
In reply to: Generate unique download link
Thanks for your response.
While this does seem to generate a link the usage limits do not seem to work, I can download a 1 time usage link as many times as I like.
Furthermore, it does not redirect to the actual page that imposes lock options such as terms.How do I generate a unique 1 time link that goes to the regular download page?
Thanks.
Hi, I’ve just started to use Download Manager Pro and trying to style my own download button in Templates area.
I wanted to use this kind of code below but at the same time, I want to have the URL to be hidden just like the[download_link]does.
<a href="[download_url]" class="button primary large shadow">[title]</a>Is there any way to achieve this goal?
In reply to: shortcode does not work well on HTML table.
Hello – Any help with this? This problem is preventing any downloads on my client’s live site. Thanks.
Edit regarding the “send download link.” The link is valid and allows the download basically if you look at it immediately. Although it allows a usage limit of 3 and expiration after 60 minutes. Not sure if that issue is related or not.
In reply to: How to unlink the download page
Hi,
In case of the free version, use the link template “Default Template”. Use TinyMCE button plugin ( https://www.wpdownloadmanager.com/download/advanced-tinymce-button/ ) or Gutenberg Block plugin ( https://www.wpdownloadmanager.com/download/gutenberg-blocks/ ) to generate package shortcode/block where you will have some visual options to generate the shortcode/block with the proper link template.https://www.evernote.com/l/AV1uVuDSDXZJopRQyo8J6YD2FW8n4JuyqGsB/image.png
Topic: Issues with download link
Something unusual seems to be happening with the latest update. I’ve updated a PDF document and would like to use the master link across many sites. However, when I hyperlink to my main PDF document, a pop up box comes up and says the word “Download”, but there’s no option to do that, nor does the download happen. The link is correct (when I test it, it opens fine in another window). What is that popup box and how do get rid of it?
How to unlink the download page so that people won’t be able to view the exact page? I just wanted them to download the file directly. In the page template settings, I selected the “Post Content” option
https://www.screencast.com/t/3GvbZ3ZnESvpHowever, when I added the code to the page the text “Module 1 Document” is still clickable and it redirects to the download page.
https://www.screencast.com/t/eADuXoIe6I’ve figured it out. Hopefully, anyone else running into this problem will benefit from this thread.
Shafayet, regarding your comment about backing up before updating, I back up daily, if not more often. As I stated, I was able to restore the deleted file from my backup.
Doc Dunning, I appreciate you chiming in. However, my custom templates have unique names and those unique names are used within the template file, as well.
Shariar, your response got me on the right track. However, it was WP Download Manager “documentation” that got me in this mess in the first place.
For your reference.
https://www.wpdownloadmanager.com/doc/short-codes/According to this documentation, you are to use the “Template ID” in your short-code to source the template you desire. This does in fact work IF your custom template is in the “\wp-content\plugins\download-manager\tpls\link-templates” folder. However, once you move your custom templates to the “\wp-content\themes\my-theme\download-manager\link-templates” folder they will no longer work if you use the Template ID alone. You must then add “.php” to the end of the Tamplate ID in your short-code or your custom template WILL show up in Downloads > Templates > Link Templates (tab), but will NOT be sourced when you view the page, widget, etc. you’re using the short-code on.
Just a wild guess here…
Maybe there is a difference in the plug-in code between the free and the pro version of WP Download Manager?In reply to: Google bot increasing download count
Adding the
rel="nofollow"attribute in download link will instruct robots not to crawl the download link. Replace<a href="[download_url]">[title]</a>with<a rel="nofollow" href="[download_url]">[title]</a>in your link/page template.Hi,
has the recent update affected any of your templates?
“link-template-default.php” has now changed its view and I don’t really like it.
The default template used to be a very clean, simple and plain: the “filename” in bold letters plus the “download button”. Now the template is larger, filename is a link, it includes file size, number of files, download counts. Can this be changed back somehow?
With thanks
OliverI have Download Manager Pro with Form Lock, and the user must request the document via email. Form lock sends them an email with the link, but it’s using my admin email address from WordPress which I don’t want it to use. It’s not using the emails we have set up in Gravity Forms as the Admin notifications.
How do we change the FROM email on the download link?
This is the email that says
From: (website name) <my WP admin email>
Sent: Tuesday, June 25, 2019 4:28 PM
To: (customer email)
Subject: Download (package name)thanks.
I am using the form lock add on. The user must fill out a Gravity Form and provide their e-mail address, etc.
When the customer fills out the e-mail form to request the document, they receive an e-mail that says
Please click on following link to start download:
#lockedIn the backend of WordPress, if I use the “Generate download link” tool, it works and I am able to download the document.
However if you use the “Email download link” icon, which sends an e-mail that says Please click on following link to start download: with a button, if you click on this button, you get a screen that says ERROR — Invalid download link —.
The URL is https://(domain, file/?wpdmdl=174&_wpdmkey=5d122b68db3ba&refresh=5d122b68dd44e1561471848This happens with all download packages. The person does not have an email domain that we have blocked.
