Hi,
Sorry, I am not sure if I understood what you meant. Are you referring to the download details ( view package ) page? Could you please send me a link?
You can modify/change details page view using Page Templates in Package settings meta box. There are some built in page templates and you can build custom templates using WPDM’s template editor.
Regards.
Favorite downloads are listed in users public profile page /profile/?profile=userid. We will soon add the list in user’s dashboard.
Please check add-on page info to understand add-on features.
Page Template add-on allows you to use your theme’s page template on the download details page. This is useful when you are trying to control sidebar on the download details page.
Yes, it is possible to use feature image in link template. Create a custom link template and use thumb template tag there with the desired size.
Please create new topics for new issues to relate topic title with the issue.
hello again!
my customer stripped all the wordpress/php dynamic to present the website as static site. the links generated by wpdm dont work with this solution… they should have told me this before ?
http://…/?wpdmpro=nx-aushang&wpdmdl=291&masterkey=59674e1262c1d
what would work: is there any way to display the direct links to the actual files easily, so the browser knows how to cope with the files? like …download/01samplefile.pdf
at the moment the pdfs are displayed like a text-file, looking messy.
thank you for any help in this case.
liebe grüße, stefan friedl.
What is “Add to Favourites”? When user added to favorites where he/she can see the favourites? Using Ultimate Member Pro version.
In download page getting 404 on this:
/downloads/file/index.php?_nonce=3e9321492&id=3874
Is this a problem?
There are free plugins like:
wpdm-button-templates
wpdm-color-button
wpdm-colorbox
wpdm-download-button
wpdm-page-template
What are they actually? Extra templates?
Is there a way to put a thumbnail to the link template? Is it possible from TinyMCE button? I added a featured image on Edit Package but it shows very big, and at the top of the link. I want something integrated into the link template. Like this:
https://cdn.wpdownloadmanager.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/01/WPDM_Pro_4_Demo_%C2%BB_Ready_Templates1.png
I copied the code of this link template but it didn’t work on my site like this.
The issue was with 2.9.50, current free version is 2.9.53, in the middle, there were 2 other releases. I already confirmed you in my reply #60568, it is resolved.
Can you tell me how to make subscriber log in compulsory for the Doc Preview page template ?
I have set Allow Access to Subscribers for Packages. Im using the Archive Sidebar layout for category view of packages and Doc preview – single page view. When viewing the package on a different browser (not logged in) the protected file downloads after clicking download link or button without prompting user to login.
What am I missing?
Thanks
Brett
When I use LinkedIn lock, where is the information for the user who has downloaded my data? By using LinkedIn it should be capturing Basic Profile information like name and email address (at the very minimum) but I cannot see it in my Subscribers page, only people who have used email lock seem to be there?
Thanks, I have installed the Advanced Custom Fields. Can you provide links to where the support documentation is? I need to understand how to capture the category, tags, author for when someone downloads using email lock. I don’t want the user to have to enter these fields, I just want them to show on the Subscriber Downloads page.
Once I’ve got that sorted I will purchase the MailChimp Add on. I might be able to find a way to just subscribe them to a seperate list altogether but if I did want to send extra fields to Mailchimp as you suggested do you offer that customisation work or do I need an external 3rd party? Thanks.
WPDM creates a cache entry when a requested download contains several files. This happens when you attach multiple files in a package and user initiates the download by clicking the package download button.
Now, You got 2 options,
1 ) Disable package download link, only enable single file download. WPDM does not cache single file download.
2 ) Make a single compressed file for each package. WPDM won’t create cache entry when there is a single file in the package.
1 ) I have uploaded new language files ( wpdmpro-ar.mo and wpdmpro-ar.po , tested those in my installation). There was some settings error in old files. Another thing is I couldn’t change your language from settings. It always stays English. Maybe core language files are missing.
2 ) You are using a custom template for category archive ( taxonomy-wpdmcategory.php ) Link Template are ignored because of it.
3 ) Looks like TinyMCE inserts reformatted category slugs which creating the issue with category shortcode pagination. For now, copy & paste category slugs from Downloads Categories page. I have created a sample page here http://www.shamsaat.com/?page_id=2065&preview=true in this approach. It is working.
I meant the custom link template should contain both title and content when showing packages from all categories. The link template I have applied here http://www.agisinc.com/ios-apps/ shows only the package content.
As your iOS apps have the link in content this custom link template works for those packages. But your other packages have download links like normal WPDM packages.
There are 2 different situations here. So, It is best if you show your iOS apps separately using the custom link template. Otherwise, your iOS apps will also have a download button like other packages.
Actually, in case of Dropbox, downloads are handled by Dropbox it self, wpdm simply redirect to download link, anything you need to adjust, it is in dropbox side.
Anyone of any links to good tutorials on Download Manager Pro use?
Have you had other people run into the issue of the URL structure required for iOS app downloads? Just linking to the file doesn’t work. iOS devices need it to be the URL structure to work.
This is definitely a Dropbox permission settings of these 2 files. I tried to access the EUR file through URL but it says “The owner hasn’t granted you access to this link.” Also, the download doesn’t work even when I am logged into Dropbox. It works for you because you have permission.
Please try following steps,
1) Delete both files from Dropbox and remove them from package too. Update your package.
2) Upload new copies to Dropbox.
3) add new copies from Dropbox to your package and update package.
There are some JS errors on this page which may be causing the issue.
Enable Ajax on lock options from Downloads Settings Frontend page, that should fix this issue.

If that does not work you have to use embedded form. Clone the link template you are using now and replace the [download_link] with [download_link_extended] tag. Then use this custom link template in your shortcode.
You can read more about custom link template here https://www.wpdownloadmanager.com/doc/templates/creating-a-new-template/
All collected email addresses are listed on Downloads Subscribers page.

In your Dropbox file list check if the two files in question has the share icons,
https://www.evernote.com/l/AUdv6w3Aj9lHh4KGK73L58b1RhBh2rAAEDoB/image.png
Please also check the package setting of those 2 packages. If you can;t find anything, send the temporary wp-admin login info private reply. Send the page URL too, where you have the download links.
The solution is using custom link template.
If you don’t want to show download details page you can remove the [page_url] template tag from the link template.
Clone any link template from Downloads Templates page and remove [page_url] tag from there. Also, remove the HTML a tag. Then set this link template when inserting the shortcode.
Use TinyMCE add-on to insert the shortcode. Your custom link template will be available in the dropdown.
Glad to know the plugin conflict has been resolved finally.
1 ) Yes, it is possible. You have to create a custom link template. Clone the link template you like or create one. Then remove the [download_link] template tag from there to hide download link. Now you will find [page_url] tag attached to HTML <a> tag. Add target blank there to open link in new page.
<a target="_blank" href="[page_url]">
2) If you are trying to apply a delay in download operation Lazy Download add-on is the one you need.
Select Extended Page Template in package setting to show individual download links.

could you please give a short code for a simple search as I don’t want an advanced one like here in this link :
https://demo.wpdownloadmanager.com/wpdmpro/simple-search/
1 ) You have to edit default template value in wpdm_embed_category function on wpdm-functions.php file. No other option to change default template of category shortcode. But it seems unnecessary if you are using TinyMCE add-on to insert shortcode because you can select the link template when inserting the shortcode as shown in the screenshot above.
2) No code change required, but you have to delete all unnecessary templates from /download-manager/tpls/link-templates/ and /download-manager/tpls/page-templates/ directories.
3) Custom Templates has their readable name which is shown in template dropdown. You don’t need to remember or understand the template id ( a3sdsb3437… )
The good thing is if you want readable template id, you can create custom templates using php files too. Place you template files under your active theme dir like shown below,
/active-theme/download-manager/link-templates/custom-template-name.php
Copy any template from /plugins/download-manager/tpls/link-templates/ dir and edit on top of it.
I have a page with 7 download buttons, of which each is linked to a file in the same Dropbox folder. These files get overwritten daily and all at the same time. Two of the buttons stopped working this morning in the sense that they now require the user to log on to Dropbox while for the other 5 it works the same as yesterday that the file is just downloaded. As a potential solution I replaced all files, but the issue remains (2 require Dropbox login, 5 not). Then I deleted the file in one of the problematic buttons and replaced it via selecting the file via Dropbox again, but that doesn’t help. Can you please advise?
