Hi Akotherm,
Thank you for your query. If you already bought the WPDM Pro you can ask your question here for faster feedback > https://www.wpdownloadmanager.com/support/forum/download-manager-pro/
Using WPDM Pro version you can generate temporary download link which will bypass the access rules. Please refer to the attached images for details.

In reply to: Download link is expired on Guest Orders page
Just to test whether there was a conflict with any of my site plugins or the child theme, I started a new secured site with only the WPDM plugins and pages enough to test the guest orders. In that scenario, the “Download link is expired” message also pops up, which leads me to believe it’s an issue with the guest orders. I used the default settings from the plugin installs. I will send you login information in a separate note so you and your team can troubleshoot a fresh install of the latest plugins on a completely barebones site. I’m going to try and revert back to the last version of both Download Manager and Premium Packages that worked for me (last year).
Thanks for your continued assistance with this.

Hi Francesco,
Thank you for choosing WordPress Download Manager.
Yes, you can do that and that direct link will keep track of your download.
Just refer to the attached picture for getting a direct download link.

Topic: Download link
Hi,
I have a free version. Is there any way to generate a link that directly downloads the file (keeping tracks of download/view hit). Actually links takes users to a download page, not to the file.thanks
In reply to: Error and characters when downloading files
Hy there,
We use the shortcode [file_list] in the link-template and the users can download each single file because there is a download button after each file.
Now, after the latest update, all download buttons are gone. When we use [file_list_extended] then all buttons are back but we don’t like the layout.
Why are the buttons gone after the update and how do we get them back?
Cheers,
Ralph
Hi there,
This morning I made the update to WPDM-pro 4.9.7 and now all the individual download-links of the files are missing. Clients can “download package” but the individual download-links of the file-list are gone. Please help me because almost 300 clients can not use the website right now.
Greetings from Marcel
In reply to: Upload File from frontend
Thank you, Andy, for your input.
Hi Marc, Use the
[wpdm_frontend]shortcode to upload files from the frontend. Andy’s reply explains the details of this feature. And here is the doc link https://www.wpdownloadmanager.com/doc/short-codes/wpdm_frontend-front-end-uploader-ui/In reply to: Single File Download
You have to use a link/page template with
[file_list]template tag to show the file list. Try the built-in Playlist or Extended page template. But to add select and download the all files later you need the File Cart add-on https://www.wpdownloadmanager.com/download/wpdm-file-cart/Topic: Invalid licence
I have an active copy download manager (pro) my WPDM account says that my license is linked to modfinder.net this is correct. However, from the wp dashboard, it says that my copy of wpdm is not active and to get auto updates I need a valid key
i have search this forum about this problem but i can’t find a solution.
so i wanna sort my downloads per update_date :this is my shortcode
[wpdm_all_packages items_per_page="20" categories="free-radioshows-podcasts,free-trance-downloads" jstable=1 order_by="update_date" order="ASC/DESC" cols="page_link,file_count,download_count|categories|update_date" colheads="Title|Categories|Update Date"]older files showing on top … and newer ones at the end …
how can i fix that ?
Besides limiting how many times they can download the file, I need a way in the package settings or somewhere to put a set number of days the file is accessible before the link expires for them. This time frame will be unique for every visitor to this page just like the number of downloads is tracked by the persons IP address. If each person has 3 downloads that’s it.
If one person has access on say 6/2/19 I can make it expire in 90 days for example. Another person comes on 6/5/19 than they have 90 days to download. So forth and so on. Each person has 90 days.
Generate a secure downloadable link not working. Just get error unauthorized access which makes no sense since I have admin privileges.
In reply to: Download link is expired on Guest Orders page
Shariar, hope the weekend was a good one. Now the “download link is expired” error message occurs in every scenario: when you first reach the order details page following the transaction, when you reach it via email link, and when you press “proceed” with email and order number inputs. Any help with this one is appreciated, thanks for making the time.

We will add the patch in next release, so update won’t erase the patch.
You have to use a custom link template. To skip the details page remove the
[page_link]tag from your template. And to open in new window replace[download_link]with the following code,<a href="[download_url]" target="_blank" class="btn btn-primary">[link_label]</a>Just tested your custom template. The PDF is now opening in a new tab.

I just want the link for the title and download link to open the file in a new browser and not take the user to the download page generated by your system
In reply to: Warning: in_array() expects parameter 2 to be array
Thanks so much, will these be included in future updates so i don’t overwrite your local fixes when the next version comes out?
Also please can you explain how to get a link to open in a new window as i am having no luck after the following instruction on the forum
I am using this on template Test 7 but is failing to open in a new tab / browser
In reply to: Problems when update archive page
When there are too many files in a package and the total size is bigger than usual your server is failing to compress the file due to server limitation. And the compression process is being halted on halfway which is creating those junk file. My suggestion is, turn off main package download link on those packages and use the only single file download option.
In reply to: Huge Zip Files Created in Download Manager Files
Please deactivate the cache zip file option from WPDM Settings. Or send temporary wp-admin login info in private reply, I will update the settings. Also, keep the single file download option only. To do that you have to use
[file_list]or[file_list_extended]template tag in your link/page template and remove the[download_link]tag to disable whole package download option.In reply to: Function to open all downloads in new tab?
Hi,
Please replace the
[download_link]template tag with the following code. You have to use custom link/page template for that.<a href="[download_url]" target="_blank" class="btn btn-primary">[link_label]</a>Also, make sure to activate the “Open in browser” option.
Thanks.
I am using the shortcode [categories] in a custom link template. It shows the categories (as hyperlinks) that each download belongs to on my page. This is as it should be. When you click on any of the category links, you are taken to a new page which shows all the downloads belonging to that category. This is also how it should be. The link that are generated by the shortcode [categories] is formatted in this way: “https://my.domain.org/download-category/mycategory/”
The problem is that the category page that is generated is not formatted correctly. It just displays the the downloads as a list of hyperlinks with the document title as the text. I need to format these generated pages. I do not see a template that is assigned to these pages so that I can clone and / or format it.
What is the template or .php file that I can change to format the categories pages the way I need?
In reply to: Function to open all downloads in new tab?
Thanks Andy. I am familiar with the setting you mentioned. I should have been more specific in my question…I need the PDFs to open in a new tab.
I looked at the templates and see a [download-link] shortcode in them, but no “a” tag to add a target too. I was hoping that support could offer a solution.
Support? You out there? 🙂

In reply to: Function to open all downloads in new tab?
Hi Vela,
I am NOT WPDM Support
There is a setting for this:
Downloads –> Settings –> Basic –> [ File Download ]
Find the Check box that reads:
[ ] Open in Browser
Try to Open in Browser instead of download when someone clicks on download linkCheck that and when a user clicks on them, it should open in the browser rather than trying to download (on files that CAN be opening in a browser.. PowerPoints and Word Docs will most likely just goto the download dialog or download depending on browser settings).
As to making it open in a new tab…. I know when creating a text link, you can check a box that says “open in a new tab” or some such, but I believe that’s a WordPress dialog, and you have to manually copy the direct download link into it. At least that’s the only way I’ve found to open in a new tab.
The support people might know a different (better?) way to do it. It’s also possible that you could edit the templates to do what you want.
