Hi, my users are still reporting problems downloading and expired links notices. I have had people unsubscribe from my list due to this issue. This is very bad for my business, as I offer a lot of downloadable material! PLEASE can you look into this issue ASAP and ensure that it really is fixed! People are reporting this problem in Chrome now too.
Please replace [download_link]
tag with following code in your custom template to open link in new tab,
<a target="_blank" href="[download_url]">Download</a>
Hi,
I have created a template and use the the following tag: [download_link], but when you click to download it opens in in the same window rather than a new window. How do i change this?
Please see http://www.actuarialsociety.org.za/assa-news/seminar/
Thank you very much, unfortunately that doesnt seem to be returning any data. I have validated both my test downloads contain data in these fields:
<tr>
<td style=”background-image: url(‘<?php echo $ext ; ?>’);background-size: 32px;background-position: 5px 8px;background-repeat: no-repeat;padding-left$
<?php the_title(); ?>
</td>
<td><?php echo wpdm_acf([ID], “cardatabase/make”); ?></td>
<td><?php echo wpdm_acf([ID], “cardatabase/model”); ?></td>
<td><?php echo wpdm_acf([ID], “cardatabase/year”); ?></td>
<td class=”hidden-xs” data-order=”<?php echo strtotime(get_the_date()); ?>”><?php echo get_the_date(); ?></td>
<td><?php echo $download_link; ?></td>
Hi,
The view of search result page is designed by your theme. WPDM doesn’t have authority there. Although your theme search template should link the search result to the details page, not sure why the title is not clickable.
But if you want a clean package search functionality Directory Add-on is the best solution. You can check the demo here https://demo.wpdownloadmanager.com/wpdmpro/archive-page-default/ There are multiple views available. Check others from the dropdown.
It is not possible to search inside document/file content. WPDM doesn’t have that feature.
Thanks.
After copying wpdm-all-downloads.php
to your theme dir.
To remove the link from title, replace <a class="package-title" href='<?php echo the_permalink(); ?>'><?php the_title(); ?></a>
with <?php the_title(); ?>
.
And you need to add more columns for show additional values, as they are not part of core wpdm, no wpdm special functions are required there, if you are using our advanced custom fields addon to add custom data, you can use associated php function or template tag to show the relevant data or if you are using WordPress custom field, you need to use get_post_meta
function to retrieve and the print the data. WPDM also has a function to retrieve specific package data, that is get_package_data
. Doc: https://www.wpdownloadmanager.com/doc/function-reference/get_package_data/ , seems like, this is what you exactly need. However, please let me know if anything is not clear.
If you are are assigning a package to some specific user, you don’t need to create a role for them, you can select users to allow access using AAC as I showed here #62567
As an admin be able to assign either to groups or to individuals and a mix of the two.
— Yes, you can do that.
But, I’m not clear what do you mean by ” NON-AAC user role”.
However, in simple words, all users under assigned roles and individually selected/assigned users using AAC will have access to that package.
But, please let me, if I’m missing something.
Hi,
Just installed and tried pro version. My basics need are download and bandwith limit for my mp3 files.
On this page http://www.sos-roqya.com/telechargement-roqya-audio-mp3-chariya-gratuit/
I switched the first link :
(1. Sourate « La Vache » (al baqara))
http://www.sos-roqya.com/download/1-baqara-mp3/?wpdmdl=534
with wpdm system for my test. The direct download link needs like 2 minutes before download starts and then the bandwith limitation is not working at all (800Kb instead of 200 Kb in settings).
And finally when download starts, it seems like the count stat are wrong (only counting first download…)
Can you help me with these. I was very happy to found that plugin and now very disapointed 🙁
Best Regards
If I turn off Form-Lock (linked to a WP-Form) and use Email-Lock instead, the recipient only receives one download link email.
I say another post that cited a similar issue (3 download link emails sent for each submission using Form-Lock) .
Can you advise how to resolve please?
You can use wpdm_email_lock_heading
filter to modify panel header text.
Filter Documentation: https://www.wpdownloadmanager.com/doc/filter-reference/wpdm_email_lock_heading/
Button label can be changed from package settings ( Link Label option )
Have you applied the theme button class in your custom link template? I do not see any class associated with the download button.
https://www.evernote.com/l/AUehvEomqhVBP5TFmhrF1nGU1OqQzdSLEHUB/image.png
Aren’t you trying to change the indicated button style?
I just updated to 4.6.9 and the image buttons will no longer work. It simply shows the word “Download” and is a link. How do I get the button to come back?
From your email:
Apologies for the email but I’m unable to post on the forums?
…www.wpdownloadmanager.com/support/topic/factory-reset/#post-62564
OK. In the interim I’m using a different plugin to send WPForm data to Zoho from helpforwp.com.
….co.uk/the-adaptive-enterprise/
So using above url…
1. wpdownloadmanager form-lock add-on embeds a WP From into the link template
2. upon submission, user gets an email with download link
3. at the same time helpforwp plugin posts the data to Zoho
However, in step #2, when I submit a download request as a ‘user’, I now get emailed the file link 3 times? Any ideas?
Also is there a way to suppress the ‘Download link sent to your email’ message as I now have 2 confirmation messages, one from WP Forms and wpdownloadmanager.
Thanks
#3. I thought you were using our Zoho CRM addon, which is only compatible with email lock option for now. However, if you are using the Zoho CRM addon for wpform from helpforwp, it should work fine.
# I’m seeing only one notification after form submission
# 3 emails probably becuase of the conflict with other wpform add-ons, however, I’m checking this.
Please use “Single Column, Image Top, Extended” or any custom page template with [download_link_extended]
template tag to embed the form in the page. As the popover is not working due to some js errors in your page.
I have tested with embedded form, It worked fine.
Thanks, the [download_link_extended] shortcut worked.
You need to use category shortcode. You may use tinymce button addon to generate sortcodes ( http://www.wpdownloadmanager.com/download/advanced-tinymce-button/ ). You may use link template named “Card” or create a new one from Admin Menu Downloads Templates ( Docs: https://www.wpdownloadmanager.com/doc/templates/ ).

Please disable Load lock options using ajax
, that feature is not required to work wpdm properly. However, in link/page template if you use [download_link_extended]
instead of [download_link]
tag, you will see form embedded in the page.

However, if you want us to adjust that for your, Please give me temporary wp-admin login info in a private reply.
Hi, I have installed Download manager Pro 4.6.9 and Form Lock 1.5.2. I am trying to use it with Contact Form 7.
After I input all of the fields and submit them, then I got an email notification for administrator with those input data, but no email was sent to the user with Download link.
BTW I tested Email Lock option and it works OK.
Can you help me ?
Hello, I have form lock activated but it only works if I have “Load lock options using ajax” enabled in the settings. It only works if using ajax. I want the form to show when page is loaded though instead of pop up only when download link is clicked. Is showing form on page load possible with this plugin?
Also, when I have the WP Pro Membership plugin activated, it disables the Form Lock completely. Files can be downloaded without showing the form. Form Lock will once again work after I deactivate WP Pro Membership, so there seems to be a conflict with these two plugins.
Thank you.
You should see progress bar too, ex: https://demo.wpdownloadmanager.com/wpdmpro/download/audio-songs/
In link template it only shows play button to keep it simplified.
I have luckily found a workaround to this problem, by requesting that the user be emailed the link instead of directly downloading. However, this is a temporary solution as far as I´m concerned, as I want my users to be able to download instantly and not have to check their emails. I would still like you to fix the issue, and I await your response.
Hello!
I have in my site one page for downloads that is “/downloads”, so inside this page I’m using some shortcodes to show the downloads. That’s ok and working.
I have some subpages like “/downloads/softwares”, in this case, “softwares” is a page that has the “download” page as the parent. That’s ok and working great.
But when I choose some pack that is listed in any of “downloads” or “softwares” pages, it shows the pack in the URL I’m using inside the Settings/URL Structure, that are “download” for Category URL base and “downbase” for Package URL base.
This is not a problem to have this link, like ” http://my-domain/downbase/winamp-5-666/ “, but when I click on it, inside the page, at the header, below the main manu, it says:
HOME > PACKAGE > WINAMP 5.666
Winamp 5.666
Also, it would not be a problem, except for the link: “PACKAGE” has the link for ” http://my-domain/downbase “, but this is not a page and it give me a 404 error. I want this link to send the user back to the home of downloads ( /downloads ) or the the category/page (they are the same), in this case, “softwares”.
How to do that?
Thank you so much.
WPDM generate download links are packageurl?wpdmdl=packageid
which is not working for strange reason in your server, so I had to change it to homeurl?wpdmdl=packageid
.
Changed file: class.Package.php
Old Code:
public static function getDownloadURL($ID, $ext = ''){
if(self::isLocked($ID) && !isset($_SESSION['_wpdm_unlocked_'.$ID])) return '#locked';
if ($ext) $ext = '&' . $ext;
$permalink = get_permalink($ID);
$sap = strpos($permalink, '?')?'&':'?';
return $permalink.$sap."wpdmdl={$ID}{$ext}";
}
Changed Code:
public static function getDownloadURL($ID, $ext = ''){
if(self::isLocked($ID) && !isset($_SESSION['_wpdm_unlocked_'.$ID])) return '#locked';
if ($ext) $ext = '&' . $ext;
$permalink = home_url();
$sap = strpos($permalink, '?')?'&':'?';
return $permalink.$sap."wpdmdl={$ID}{$ext}";
}
To open a download link in a new tab, you need to use following code for download link:
<a href="[download_url]" target="_blank">[link_label]</a>
