You need Archive Page ( Directory Add-on ) for that. Use TinyMCE add-on to insert archive shortcode. You will find all available options there.
The exact shortcode used on the demo page is the following one,
[wpdm-archive button_style="inverse" link_template="link-template-panel-1-3" order_by="post_title" order="asc" items_per_page="10" cat_view="hidden"]
How do I grant certain users permission to download a pkg and show the download link?
The 2checkout option is available in cart page after clicking “Checkout” button. Please use the following link check out the saved cart. I have added All Addon there.

In 2Chkout site you will find the PayPal option after filling Billing Info,

Hi,
I am using the WPDM Archive Plugin. I included the following code on a page and it looked as expected:
[wpdm-archive cat_view="compact" link_template="link-template-loxberry-extended" order_by="title" order="asc" items_per_page="20" ]
Example: http://plugins.loxberry.de/plugins/
But if you click on “Next” or “Page 2”, the next page shows up correctly for a second or so, and then shows up with any style. Furthermore, the URL isn’t correct (missing /plugins/ Part). But even if I add /plugins/ to the URL, it showed up without any stype loaded.
Example: http://plugins.loxberry.de/?wpdmtask=get_downloads&pg=52&category=0&cp=2
Can you please check?
If you allow only subscribers then download link won’t work for anyone else. Maybe your category settings is set to “All Visitors”.
Please send temporary wp-admin login info in private reply to check the issue.
This download link is showing because of <audio> tag conflict with another plugin.
Remove marked line from wpdm-functions.php file to hide it.

If still visible make following changes in /download-manager/libs/class.FileList.php,

I’ve posted this issue several times before. There is a space and a download link that is appearing in the footer of all out pages. This must be an inherent bug in the plugin, because you fix it and it comes back each time there is an update.

Hi,
WHich version of WPDM do you want?
Here is the link for v.4.5.6 You can try it.
https://www.dropbox.com/s/dcyzkm4g3c0t73c/download-manager-v.4.5.6.zip?dl=0
Also, you can ask your server support to update your PHP version. WPDM latest version requires PHP >= 5.4
Thanks.
Sorry, It should be ['download_url'] not ['download_link'],
<td><a target="_blank" href="<?php echo $data['download_url']; ?>">Download</a></td>
You have to add the "searchPlaceholder" : "Search Records", line in wpdm-all-downloads.php file ( as datatable initialization argument – around line 60 ).
Replace <td><?php echo $download_link; ?></td> with the following code,
<td><a target="_blank" href="<?php echo $data['download_link']; ?>">Download</a></td>
That should open link in new tab.
Adding search placeholder,

Thanks. I have made some edits to the template. Can you tell me how to get the download link to open in a new tab? Also, can you tell me how where I can set the Search input placeholder so that it reads “Search Downloads” ?
Please see this page
I’m unable to provide credentials as this is an internal website that can’t be accessed publicly. We might be able to use TeamViewer, however.
Another issue is that, after changing both the page template and link template for each download, nothing changes when viewing the page. No caching plugin is installed, too.
Thanks Shahriar! I was able to activate the license key.
Now I am getting ‘file not found’ whenever I download a package. I checked in wp-content/uploads/download-manager-files and the files are there. Is there a problem with the link, because I copied the whole WordPress installation from one server to another?
Regards, Eva
I didn’t check portfolio post type code ( theme or plugin ) as it is coming from another plugin or theme. If the issue was related to WPDM I would have provided you a solution for that.
Are you using wpdmpro.po file for translation source? I see the string Send Download Link To in that file on line 1791.
Thank you! Does this mean that you can’t find the problem?
Another issue: I have translated all the strings in but I am not able to find the text:
Send Download Link To:
(in the pop-up when I use the e-mail lock)
Hi,
Thanks for replying so quickly! That worked – all functioning as before. The only thing is that a line of text has appeared in the embedded card that I would like to remove – the line “send download link to:” . could you tell me how I can remove that please? Thanks
Thanks!
I have updated the latest version now:
1. My translations from generated po file disappeared when I updated, so I had to upload these again. Is this normal? (
2. I use the link Call to action 3 but in the browser it does not show the filename, size and downloads as in the template prewiew.
I use the the Avada theme. (see attached doc)
Hi,
Looks like it is possible to remove download and print buttons using a custom pdf viewer. But it requires some extra work to modify the viewer library. So, This task will require total 4 hours of customization. Let me know if you want to proceed. I will send you payment link after getting your confirmation.
Thanks.
1 ) Page loading time was normal in my test
2 ) Your theme has it’s own Bootstrap. So, I disabled WPDM’s bootstrap from Downloads Settings Basic. This will fix any Bootstrap conflict issue. But looks like your theme has layout issue. You have to fix those to make content area visible.
3 ) Please send me the link to the page where you put the search form shortcode.
I’m having troubles with formatting with the link template. For example, I have a test page set up using the Panel 1/3 template but on desktop, the columns are sized incorrectly. ( https://shifmanmattresses.com/test-downloads-page/)
This is the shortcode I’m using for this one:
[wpdm_category id="advertising,general-documents" operator="IN" title="1" desc="1" toolbar="0" paging="1" order_by="field name" order="asc" item_per_page="10" template="link-template-panel-1-3" cols=3 colspad=2 colsphone=1]
I have also tried using the Card template, but the featured image extends beyond the edges of the box rather than sizing to fit.
Shortcode for this one:
[wpdm_category id="advertising,general-documents" operator="IN" title="1" desc="1" toolbar="0" paging="1" order_by="field name" order="asc" item_per_page="10" template="link-template-bsthumnail" cols=3 colspad=2 colsphone=1]
How can I fix these issues?
Please check following screenshots to understand the differences between two approaches.

Okay, thank you, that did work. I set the wpdm_download_link_expiration_limit to 1 in the plock if block.
I would have sworn I tried it with success more than 3 times before, but I must be mistaken since now it only allows 1 time, even if the same user copies the link URL and pastes in a new browser tab.
I can’t expect buyers of my software to register as a user on my site, and I also didn’t want to limit the downloads that 1 person supplying the proper password could download.
I will admit that I got a bit upset here at first, thinking I had purchased a plugin which seemed useless to me. But I am glad you responded with this workaround, and quite promptly I should not hesitate to add.
Thanks.
Or use wpdm_download_link_expiration_limit filter to change the limit without editing plugin code.
When a package is unlocked using the password the provided link allows 3 downloads using the URL key.
But, another user can download the package if only you have set All Visitors in allow access field. So, setting some user role will prevent anyone else to download the file in this scenario.
If you want to keep the allow access field to ‘All Visitors’ and still want to allow only 1 download after password unlock, then you have to change the limit manually from /download-manager/wpdm-functions.php file. Set the indicated value to 1.
