Hi,
I just tested Form Lock here https://www.cromsource.com/download/regulatory-newsletter-january-march-2015/
The issue was your custom page template because it doesn’t have the [download_link] or [download_link_extended] tag.
Create a custom template which contains one of these tags or use the Extended page template.
Thanks.
These are custom template tags like [version] or [file_size]. Like shortcodes but works only inside Download Manager link/page templates.

sorry. the link didn’t show. I am using…
‘Download‘
but I want to reference my own button image?
I am using…
Download
…to force the download button to open the details page. Now, how do I use a custom button I have uploaded.
So I don;t want a button that says DOWNLOAD to go to the details page. I want a button that says MORE DETAILS. I have created it and it displays on default link templates, but I can’t get it to work when I on my custom template.
@mdalleyrudowgroup-com,ย Please try now.
@simstim, Your key is already linked to 5 domains. If you are getting the invalid key error in those domains, please install the latest version of Download Manager to fix the license issue.
Our goal with this plugin was to protect the download links so only our subscribers would be able to download our files.
The problem is that subscriber accesses the page, then they have the dropbox link and could easily save the dropbox link and/or send it to someone. How do we eliminate this problem? If people can just save the url and send it to other people then there is really no reason to have the plugin.

Hi,
When I am trying to create packaged from front end up-loader, it is showing the download link with a delete icon. But neither delete icon is working nor download icon is working. How do I get to display these packages as same as the other packages?
In the screenshot ttached, the last package names “video 5” was created through front end uploader and also pagination UI is not not rendered properly. Please check.
Attaching the screenshot.
Hello I have a problem with email lock: I used both Must Agree with Terms and Email lock (but I get the same behaviour with only email lock). When the user insert name and email and submit the form, he/she gets the processing message lasting forever. The email with the link is sent correctly but the download link does not appear on the web page.
Can you help?
I am using the latest version of both the plugin and wordpress.
Thank you,
Simona.
Yes, you can use custom template for the category page. Template file name is taxonomy-wpdmcategory.php Please check this doc https://www.wpdownloadmanager.com/doc/template-files/
I tried this, but it obviously did nothing new as I’m just copying the un-themed archive page into a new file named taxonomy-wpdmcategory.php. I also meant to say that I’d like the layout of the category / archive page to use a link template I created. Pasting shortcodes into my taxonomy-wpdmcategory.php do nothing.
Yes, you can use custom template for the category page. Template file name is taxonomy-wpdmcategory.php Please check this doc https://www.wpdownloadmanager.com/doc/template-files/
It is also possible to use a custom template tag to show categories without links. Use wpdm_before_fetch_template hook to add custom tags. https://www.wpdownloadmanager.com/doc/filter-reference/wdm_before_fetch_template/
THe only option is to email the download link.
But we want to download after form submit
Why isnt it working?
Another strange thing is why we cant use 1 liveforms email for different files in WPDM Pro?
Please, need help here. I can provide you with temp wp-admin if you send pm
[wpdm_search_result] doesn’t have pagination support yet. Please check WPDM Directory add-on, It has extended options for search and support pagination.
To show individual file download button use a custom link template with [file_list] template tag.
That is not the case at my end. The source does not show the extra line (see attached), the code is not producing an extra line, and a different theme does not work either (produces a blank page when download link is clicked). I have no doubt that what you have identified is a problem, but don’t know how to reproduce this at my end. Any ideas?
When I click on the download link, it always downloads a text file which says, “Sorry! Download is not available yet”.
I created the package by uploading the documents. Please check this issue.
Thanks.
In that case, you have to use a custom template for /download-manager/tpls/wpdm-all-downloads.php template file ( Please check step 3 here https://www.wpdownloadmanager.com/doc/template-files/ )
Find <td><?php echo $download_link; ?></td> in wpdm-all-downloads.php and replace it with
<td><a target="_blank" href="<?php echo $data['download_url']; ?>"><?php echo $data['link_label']; ?></a></td>
Hello, Susan,
I replied your similar question here https://www.wpdownloadmanager.com/support/topic/link-custom-field-data/
Maybe you have missed it. Please check my answer there. It shows how to link custom data with Advanced Custom Fields add-on.
Regards.
You have to use a custom link template to open files in the new window.
1 ) Clone the templates you are using now from Downloads Templates page.
2 ) Then replace [download_link] template tag with <a href="[download_url]" target="_blank">Download</a>
3 ) Save the custom template and use this template when inserting the shortcode or set it as link/page template in package settings area.
You can add this CSS in your theme’s style.css file to change download link color .wpdm-download-link { color: #DF2629 !important; }
But you can also use another link template there to present the downloads in a more stylish way. The current template you are using there is the basic one.
Install TinyMCE add-on to select link template when inserting the shortcode. You can also use Image Button as the download button.
These are dynamic thumbnail images created by Download Manager for various link/page templates ( Output for [thumb_WxH] and [thumb_url_WxH] tags ). WPDM stores these images to reuse the generated thumbnails.
For example the thumbnail here https://demo.wpdownloadmanager.com/wpdmpro/download/multi-file-package/ is stored in cache dir.
Let me know if you have any other query.
I have cloned “Card” and “Button” template. You can clone any other template and follow the same approach to remove download link from link template. Use WPDM TinyMCE button in editor toolbar to insert the shortcode. You can select this custom link template there.

Yes, It does make sense ๐
You can generate the direct download link for a package from “All Downloads” page and use that link with any text like any other link.
